Andy, your statement sounds to me like a deliberate misinterpretation of
what Andrew was saying.

Andrew's point--if I understand it correctly--is this:  that although there
are things that make humans different from dogs, fucking (by which I mean
the purely physical aspects of love-making, as opposed to the emotional
aspects) is not one of them.  I think that statement is pretty hard to
disagree with.
