...wait, it could have been mistaken for a real party. More than anything else, it was a gathering of friends looking for an excuse to hang out and eat some dessert. True to their word, the True Love Revolutionaries were not trying to convince anyone to commit to their sexless values. They were simply providing a social venue for people with a similar lifestyle.

...ever seen two partners really “getting jiggy with it”—legs intertwined and faces covered—you’ve also noticed how difficult it is to distinguish the girl from the guy. So physically erotic, it’s apparently sexless. This type of dancing neither requires lessons nor calls for leaders.

Why then, does bumping and grinding still leave me feeling so wronged?I may be the first to question chauvinism...
