"I don't want you to take this the wrong way," said Annie, "but was all the sex necessary?"
"I've thought about that and my conclusion is yes. People have strong defenses against change; especially change that conflicts with their personal views. In the seventies, people like Timothy Leary used LSD to break down folks defenses and open their minds. Drill instructors use intimidation and exhaustion to the same end. Some college courses in human sexuality saturate the students with pornographic films to desensitize them and make discussing the course content easier.
"I think sex served a similar purpose for us. I understand there are only two fears we are born with, falling and loud noises. They're important for survival. I think there is a third driver of survival, reproduction. Sex. If the drive to reproduce, have sex, is satisfied then we are able to relax and become open to discussions about human, and our personal, feelings. Sex tired us out and opened our minds and hearts. It was a physical manifestation of symbolically destroying all the rules and taboos we brought from the other world. I don't think any of us, except possibly Lonnie, planned premeditated sex but without sex, I think we would have spent the week arguing and digging in; punching and counter-punching; without much progress. I think the results speak for themselves."
"One last question," said Annie, "do you think the results will last?"
"I don't know. Some will. Some may not. Maybe we'll need an occasional refresher course."
Annie laughed as she punched Bobby in the arm.
Strange story. I wouldn't be surprised if there were five divorces in the near future.
Their marriages will never be the same. Some of them will cease to be. Some of them will be discovered to never have existed in the first place. Promiscuity and polyamory are caustic to the marriage concept and commitment. Words are cheap and easy. Community fucking is what packs of animals do, not normal human beings.
Thanks for the effort.
Seems like this could fall somewhere between hippie free love and new age drivel. The four other guys just get to sit back and watch Bobby with his harem of Their wives.
Then I started reading. Characters that are deserved targets for ridicule and derision.
