My impression is that Perry, whose idea of "sex" has a narrow focus, has no idea what to say about them. But she does support gay marriage. She also says that gays are promiscuous while lesbians are monogamous, supporting her thesis that the differences between men and women invalidate the sexual revolution - it only benefits men. She has a thesis which grows ever more strident as the book progresses, which is why even though I enjoyed reading it I don't like its conclusions.(less)

Just because it is in your nature to rut like an animal and play the cad, you are not an animal and it is your duty to rise above your nature and baser instincts. Used up and broken women do not just happen, they are made by weak men.

Every women you break, is screwing over your fellow men in the long run. And potentially your future sons. (less)
