All four women are going through a period of not having sex - a rare occurrence. Carrie's relationship with Mr. Big has been going on for long enough that it is becoming less physical. Charlotte is dating a man who isn't interested in sex anymore, while Samantha discovers that not having sex can be erotic. Miranda hasn't had sex for months.
