Would someone please give us an objective explanation of the facts
which support the ideas in the text above?  People who espouse such
views always lean on such passive, empty phrases as "you can't really
fool yourself in the end" and "deep inside, the same old common sense
about these things comes through."  I wish that good sense was common.

The difference between elegant, graceful, dignified human beings and
other forms of life, has nothing to do with their marital status or
state of relaxation as it relates to their sex lives.  When you and
your honey boink away, you're doing what the doggies do.  If that
upsets you, then the problem doesn't lie with sex itself, it lies with
your perception of what makes human beings special.
