...Maybe not for Zhu, but sex is, in fact, on every agenda, as Freud so famously declared. After much pressure, Wu allows a glimpse of his factory's musty purification room, where six Chinese women of varying ages slap translucent disinfectant on a pile of swirl-shaped green dildos, rapidly passing them down the line like volunteer fire fighters. Wu fades to the back and begins inspecting a box of pink toys, examining the motors and picking minute imperfections off the skin. With sex toys, quality is job one. "The market will be mature," says Wu, "when Chinese people think...
...bottom of the pile.) Again, it is not that A.E.’s are vicious or ludicrous as such; but in quantity they become sheer madness.

But that’s where they...
...different forms of human loves and how do they influence our relationships? I ask my students at Harvard if they’re happy, and the answer is almost universally no; and the reason is the lack of meaningful relationships. When you form meaningful relationships, you are happy. Both Freud and Lewis had a great deal to write about the question of sexuality. And there’s the problem of suffering: if 96 percent of people believe in some kind of intelligent being that’s omnipotent and all-loving, how do you equate that with September...
