Do not despise

The greatest of pleasures for human beings and the one they seek out most of all is sexual orgasm. To the more cerebral, aesthetic and spiritual this may sound base because it may seem that we are speaking of a merely physical pleasure. However, to say that it is merely physical is to damn that which underpins all of human being and human society. It is in the moment of orgasm, a  moment of the extremest intimacy and vulnerability between male and female, that the fierce animal pair bond is forged that underpins all human affection. Its tactile nature and its foundation in touch, embrace and caress spreads from adult lovers to their offspring in the family.  To despise such things is to despise humanity itself by pretending that we are something more than animal. We are, of course, something more than animal in that we alone know that we are animals. However, at no point do we ever cease to be animals.
