Mine
is
as
stupid
as
yours
–
but
I
don
’
t
let
it
rule
my
brain
.
I
can
at
least
see
the
beauty
of
Mike
’
s
attempt
to
devise
an
ideal
human
ethic
and
applaud
his
recognition
that
such
a
code
must
be
founded
on
ideal
sexual
behavior
,
even
though
it
calls
for
changes
in
sexual
mores
so
radical
as
to
frighten
most
people
–
including
you
.
For
that
I
admire
him
–
I
should
nominate
him
for
the
Philosophical
Society
.
Most
moral
philosophers
consciously
or
unconsciously
assume
the
essential
correctness
of
our
cultural
sexual
code
–
family
,
monogamy
,
continence
,
the
postulate
of
privacy
that
troubled
you
so
,
restriction
of
intercourse
to
the
marriage
bed
,
et
cetera
.
Having
stipulated
our
cultural
code
as
a
whole
,
they
fiddle
with
details
–
even
such
piffle
as
solemnly
discussing
whether
or
not
the
female
breast
is
an
‘
obscene
’
sight
!
But
mostly
they
debate
how
the
human
animal
can
be
induced
or
forced
to
obey
this
code
,
blandly
ignoring
the
high
probability
that
the
heartaches
and
tragedies
they
see
all
around
them
originate
in
the
code
itself
rather
than
failure
to
abide
by
the
code
.
"
Now
comes
the
Man
from
Mars
,
looks
at
this
sacrosanct
code
–
and
rejects
it
in
toto
.
I
do
not
grasp
exactly
what
Mike
’
s
sexual
code
is
,
but
it
is
clear
from
what
little
you
told
me
that
it
violates
the
laws
of
every
major
nation
on
Earth
and
would
outrage
‘
right
-
thinking
’
people
of
every
major
faith
–
and
most
agnostics
and
atheists
,
too
.
And
yet
this
poor
boy
-
"
"
Jubal
,
I
repeat
–
he
’
s
not
a
boy
,
he
’
s
a
man
"
"
Is
he
a
‘
man
?
’
I
wonder
.
This
poor
ersatz
Martian
is
saying
,
by
your
own
report
,
that
sex
is
a
way
to
be
happy
together
.
I
go
along
with
Mike
this
far
:
sex
should
be
a
means
of
happiness
.
The
worst
thing
about
sex
is
that
we
use
it
to
hurt
each
other
.
It
ought
never
to
hurt
;
it
should
bring
happiness
,
or
,
at
the
very
least
,
pleasure
.
There
is
no
good
reason
why
it
should
ever
be
anything
less
.
"
The
code
says
,
‘
Thou
shalt
not
covet
thy
neighbor
’
s
wife
’
–
and
the
result
?
Reluctant
chastity
,
adultery
,
jealousy
,
bitter
family
fights
,
blows
and
sometimes
murder
,
broken
homes
and
twisted
children
?
and
furtive
,
dirty
little
passes
at
country
club
dances
and
the
like
,
degrading
to
both
man
and
woman
whether
consummated
or
not
,
Is
this
injunction
ever
obeyed
?
The
Commandment
not
to
‘
covet
’
I
mean
;
I
’
m
not
referring
to
any
physical
act
.
I
wonder
.
If
a
man
swore
to
me
on
a
stack
of
his
own
Bibles
that
he
had
refrained
from
coveting
another
man
’
s
wife
because
the
code
forbade
it
,
I
would
suspect
either
self
-
deception
or
subnormal
sexuality
.
Any
male
virile
enough
to
sire
a
child
is
almost
certainly
so
virile
that
he
has
coveted
many
,
many
women
–
whether
he
takes
action
in
the
matter
or
not
.
"
Now
comes
Mike
and
says
:
‘
There
’
s
no
need
for
you
to
covet
my
wife
?
love
her
!
There
’
s
no
limit
to
her
love
,
we
all
have
everything
to
gain
–
and
nothing
to
lose
but
fear
and
guilt
and
hatred
and
jealousy
.
’
The
proposition
is
so
naive
that
it
’
s
incredible
.
So
far
as
I
recall
only
precivilization
Eskimos
were
ever
this
naive
–
and
they
were
so
remote
from
the
rest
of
us
that
they
almost
qualified
as
‘
Men
from
Mars
’
themselves
.
However
,
we
soon
gave
them
our
virtues
and
instead
of
happy
sharing
they
now
have
chastity
and
adultery
just
like
the
rest
of
us
–
those
who
survived
the
transition
.
I
wonder
if
they
gained
by
it
?
What
do
you
think
,
"
I
wouldn
’
t
care
to
be
an
Eskimo
.
thank
you
.
"
"
Neither
would
I
.
Spoiled
raw
fish
makes
me
bilious
