Look, Mike, I don't care what you do. It's up to you. I don't judge you for it.

But I don't want sex that isn't based on a real personal relationship that has developed over at least a little time. I don't want to have sex with people I neither know nor trust. I don't want sex with strangers.

It has not fuck-all to do with power. I don't want power over anyone. I just want a genuine relationship, that's all. I don't want power over her...I don't want her to have power over me. It makes me sick to see people basing sex around power issues.

"Is sex an expression of love? Of course it is, but so is conversation, shared dinners, shared plans and every other intimacy you can think of."

Yeah, and those things are all great too. They're all part of the picture...and they're all nice to have within a genuine relationship.
