Will the Brits soon be churning out grade-schoolers who are tantric gurus and carnal athletes poised to enter adulthood with sexual identities intact?
The Kama Sutra may be best-known today for its graphic detailing of sex positions, but it also celebrates intimacy, guilt-free pleasure, masturbation and the importance of knowing - and satiating - the desires and preferences of your partner.”

“When looking into the eyes of the one you love, you can see it all: when they're sad, when something you said hurts, when they brighten up or when you know what they're thinking without saying a word. The eyes convey our truth in glints and glimmers. For a partner, and sometimes a few select others in our life, the eyes communicate in an instant what words cannot.
Could this intensity be the reason that so many of us, consciously or not, minimize eye contact during sex? Perhaps we like to let our bodies do the talking (which certainly has its place). Or maybe the power of eye contact is simply too intense during an already-heightened moment. It distracts us from the moment or makes us feel self-conscious.”

"The pace of life feels morally dangerous to me."- Richard Ford, novelist
So the personal and political question is this: How might we craft a different attitude toward time--one that moves us toward a saner, more humane, more caring country?
…what truly interests me are other parts of the Slow Movement--the thirty-five-hour work week; educators who advocate for a slower classroom pace and fewer extracurricular commitments; the importance of leisure activities (‘the first principle of all action is leisure,’ Aristotle argued); Tantric sex; and the Slow City movement that addresses everything from reducing traffic to providing family-run businesses with prime real estate to using local, organic produce for school lunches.
But here at home politically, personally, we seem headed in the opposite direction.”
