  I've found some truth in the Kreutzer Sonata of Tolstoj, psychological osservation, free thinking...it's a refreshing, astonishing view to be read nowadays as we totally follow to the logic of fun, the prevalence of the body, the economy of sex.

And don't worry, you don't have to stop copulating (not yet...hey it's ok, we have viagra and plastic surgery and prostitutes, so you can hope to never stop wanting it)....Sorry but I'm just fucking (and we use that word all the time) fed about the predominant political correctness, the mainstream thinking of today.
