When It Comes to Sex, the Left Hates Science


from Salvo:
The part of life where the self-proclaimed secularist tough-mindedness about science is perhaps most overblown is with regard to sex. Since Kinsey wrote his famed study (something much covered in this publication), the American secular left has been astonishingly credulous about the desirability of laissez-faire sex. Their basic stance can be summed up by the Bloodhound Gang’s thoughtful and well-considered lyric, “Baby, you and me ain’t nothing but mammals, so let’s do it like they do on the Discovery Channel.” This bit of verse, of course, was an elaboration of the important musico-sexual treatise of George Michael (a role model for rational, healthy sexuality): “Sex is natural. Sex is good. Not everybody does it, but everybody should.”
