"The Birds and the Bees"



Gore Vidal sometimes makes me laugh.

"Despite the best efforts of theologians and philosophers to disguise our condition, there is no point to us, or to any species, except proliferation and survival (...) Men and women are dispensable carriers, respectively, of seeds and eggs; programmed to mate and die, mate and die, mate and die."
-- Gore Vidal (1991)
