No, Ignacio, my age has NOT dulled me to unfairness. In fact, sexually it has just toned me down to a dull roar!! I think I was a little hormonally over-endowed, a real handful for a man to have to deal with my needs. Incidentally, if we are talking about sex so openly, are you on the pink team, since my initial question seemed to flatter you so much?

What I was trying to say in my previous post is that sex has no place in relationships of unequal power at work, and I have to include not only men having power over women and using to sexual advantage, but women in power using it sexually over men they supervise, or any kind of sex where there is unequal power at work--including gay sex.

I am really not sure why you have such a hard time believing that I can feel this way, and not have become overly moralistic or something. The free pleasure of sex is, to me at least, totally ruined when the sex gets caught up in issues of power. Would you be able to justify forcing your attentions on someone who worked under you? Would you pull down your trousers and ask an underling to "kiss it" as Billy has been accused of in the Paula Jones trial?
