dream sex gay
Gay men are guardians of the masculine impulse. To have anonymous sex in a dark alleyway is to pay homage to the dream of male freedom. The unknown stranger is a wandering pagan god. The altar, as in pre-history, is anywhere you kneel.
sexy clever funny-sex
Sex at age 90 is like trying to shoot pool with a rope.
sex order identity
Sex IS power. Identity is power. In western culture, there are no nonexploitative relationships. Everyone has killed in order to live.
mother sex men
Straight men who visit prostitutes are valiantly striving to keep sex free from emotion, duty, family--in other words, from society, religion, and procreative Mother Nature.
sex philosophy males
Serial or sex murder, like fetishism, is a perversion of male intelligence. It is a criminal abstraction, masculine in its deranged egotism and orderliness. It is the asocial equivalent of philosophy, mathematics, and music. There is no female Mozart because there is no female Jack the Ripper.
sex men voyages
In sex, man is driven into the very abyss which he flees. He makes a voyage to non-being and back.
art sex eye
Popular culture is the new Babylon, into which so much art and intellect now flow. It is our imperial sex theater, supreme temple of the western eye. We live in the age of idols. The pagan past, never dead, flames again in our mystic hierarchies of stardom.
sex women cities
We should teach general ethics to both men and women, but sexual relationships themselves must not be policed. Sex, like the city streets, would be risk-free only in totalitarian regimes.
sex self pie
American feminism's nose dive began when Kate Millet, that imploding beanbag of poisonous self-pity, declared Freud a sexist. Trying to build a sex theory without studying Freud, women have made nothing but mud pies.
sex fall men
Sex is the point of contact between man and nature, where morality and good intentions fall to primitive urges.
sex men age
Sex at the age of 90 is like playing billiards with a rope
sex men attention
Woman is the dominant sex. Men have to do all sorts of stuff to prove that they are worthy of woman's attention.
sex thinking differences
In 1974 I nearly got into a fistfight with some early academic feminists in a restaurant when I casually alluded to a hormonal element in sex differences. It was utterly unacceptable at that time to think or say such a thing. ... If you have any doubts about the effect of hormones on emotion, libido and aggression, have a chat with a transexual, who must take hormones medically. He or she will set you straight.
sex stress differences
My stress on the truth in sexual stereotypes and on the biologic basis of sex differences is sure to cause controversy.
