Well put.

I've said (posted) this before, and I'll say it again.  What's
wrong with going out to get laid?  It's just as valid a goal
as going out to dance or going out to meet people.  The only
problem I can see with it would be dishonesty, i.e.,
don't tell someone you're interested in really getting to know
them if you just want to go to bed with them.

I know this was not meant to be one of Eric's major points,
but I had to react to it because this kind of attitude
seems to come up on the net all the time.
Did I just hallucinate the Sexual Revolution, or did everyone
else just forget it (or worse, believe Time's cover story
that it's over).

Again, sorry Eric.  I don't mean to pick on you in particular.
I'm trying to use your posting to make a larger point.

Chris
