Well, yes -- we are whiners.  But we are whiners who think that it is 
truly a shame that sex, a thing of beauty, of human caring, should be 
reduced to being a mere commodity.  Its truly sad that an activity that 
should represent the fullment of humanities potential to care and love 
other humans ends up as a "game,"  advertised with all the crassness of a 
Coca-cola commercial.  Good grief folks -- are you all that jaded?
