Despite the article mentioned below, as [livejournal.com profile] strictlytrue has pointed out, not actually having been written by John Bercow, I will keep this post here as a public service, should you ever require the instant craw-loosening effect of imagining John Bercow being in any way connected with the concept of sex.
The John Bercow Guide to Understanding Women was written in 1986, when he was a 23-year-old Tory councillor in Lambeth, south London. It was published in a radical magazine for young Tories called Armageddon. Offering his own insights into what women truly want, it included advice on “how to pick up virgins” and “how to pick up refined girls”. Women, he wrote, “will settle for anything that breathes and has a credit card”. Picking up “drunk girls” could be done by using the line: “Maybe we could go back to your place and name your breasts.” To get rid of a girl say: “Don’t move, I have just broken a test tube filled with the Aids virus.” [Guardian]

I should point out that the Grauniad is wrong - Bercow didn't actually write this article. It was intended by some Tory wag at the time as a piss-take of Bercow's lack of success with the ladiez.

As I say, The Guardian is wrong about everything.

Also wrong about everything, except it doesn't care.
