I'm not a doctor (I just play one on T.V.), but I would venture to
guess that a lack of sex could cauze physical and emotional problems.
I can think of some intstant physical ones, (for men, I'd rather not
say) And have heard stories of madness and mayhem from people
(example Eddie Gien) who had never experienced sexual encounters. I
am wondering what type of differences their are biologically, if
hormones are surpressed or antagonized.
It's strange that we are defending sex, I won't dare to ask Scott why
or how he developed his attitude toward it, but your ripping yourself
off!
