Lest you all think I’m an anti-sex crab, I will post an essay about my views on the sexual revolution and free love in about two weeks. Also, I must quibble with our “Darwin’s wolves” motto. The she-wolf is a bit fierce for my sensitive nature. I shall instead be Darwin’s lioness; a sleek, tawney huntress who rips out jugulars and bites through bone, then goes home to cuddle with her young.
Don’t lionesses eat their young too?
“anti-sex crab” is a ….hrm…poor phrasing?
Let me guess, the sexual revolution’s benefits have mostly accrued to men?;)

A lioness also shares her man with an army of other women. An inexact metaphor, to be sure, but the wolf generally implies a masculine image and I refuse to let facts interfere with my iconicism. As for my thoughts on the sexual revolution, you’ll have to wait for a more coherent, even-handed statement than I can give in 5 minutes.
P.S. the “anti-sex crab” was intending for a subtle irony.
As subtle as a gold brick wrapped in a slice of lemon:)
