Please Christine! Don't tell where sex has a place in my life -- it will not do! Unless we are talking about you (or perhaps your daughter). I did not realize that the issue regarding my allegiance had originated with you Christine. I thought it was one Magnolia's more fanciful notions. The thing is that I have had close relationships with gay men for whom, one might say unfortunately, I have nothing but respect and sometimes admiration. When I was going out with my first serious girlfriend a very handsome gay man took a fancy to me and received nothing for his pains. Of course he knew or should have known that there was no hope since my girlfriends attributes, quite opposite in every sense to his (she is small, pretty, and definitely curvy) left no doubt as to my inclinations, but he insisted even so. The thing of it was that I have never met anyone capable of as disinterested affection as he was. Quite saintly really. I did feel attached but never really tempted. It is a pity when you think about it.

>>" 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?"<< There is nothing wrong with that as long as you don't grab her by the back of the neck and you have a grin on your face when you say it. As Dr. Hakeem has stated in many of his essays, "you never know what a woman will like until she tries it." Jim

Christine, John has been seriously injured in an automobile accident. He is currently recovering. See other post about it for more details. In the meantime, John asked me to please pass this message on to you: Christine, sex in the workplace requires mature and rational minds. Women or men who succumb to sex (short of rape) due only to authority have no sense of self; no sense of life, and no value system. Perhaps these people ought to be arrested for prostitution rather than protected as you would have it, Christine. Know, too, Christine, that sex in the workplace has become quite a popular sport these days. It has become more controlled, cleaner, and more emotionally innocuous (It's no big deal. It's just about having fun and feeling good). Multiple partners, group sex, and closet f*cking are not uncommon. This emerging new trend is more often found in companies where the women are in charge. And you heard it first from the Mighty Galt himself, Christine, as he has been the primary trendsetter. And do tell all the good women that although John Galt is temporarily without a push, his most precious endowment remains unharmed. John Galt brought to you via the courtesy of Father (". . .and that's the way it was.") Terrence and wholly intact.
