Comic 22! There are only two things that Freud said that I give any credence to. 1) Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar. And 2) The libido is polymorphously perverse. Remember in Jurassic Park, when chaos mathematician Ian Malcolm (played by the inimitable Jeff Goldblum) is looking at the raptor eggs with Henry Wu?
"If there is one thing the history of evolution has taught us, it's that life will not be contained. Life breaks free. It expands to new territories, it crashes through barriers, painfully, maybe even dangerously, but, uh, well, there it is!"
"You're implying that a group composed entirely of female animals will... breed?"
"No, I'm simply saying that life, uh... finds a way."
The libido is much the same. It is polymorphous; it finds a way out. Ignore it for too long (vis-a-vis copious booklearning), and...wow. A skeleton looks svelte.
