Hi Dev - I'm with Ania on your frankness and style! I especially like your comment on matriarchal society and Bonobo behaviour. In my, albeit very limited, experience, there is much for us as humans to learn from changing the locus of control from 'sex as an expression/consequence of individual power' to 'sex as the joyous lubricant of communal relations'...

I haven't heard of that one. I will look it up, thanks.

“how status, sexual behaviour and patriarchal or matriarchal structures fully inter-relate.”

This is almost exactly what he explores in the book.

Yes, I looked and I do have a copy on ePub. Just need to get around to reading through. I always find Reich kinda dense to read.
