Sex in Space: bizarre reactions
The Space Review ^ | 10/30/06 | Laura S. Woodmansee

I am amazed how many people in the United States are so intimidated by the word “sex” and are unwilling to discuss its consequences. My latest book, Sex in Space, tackles both the fun and serious sides of this currently neglected topic. It’s not just my opinion that the possibilities of sex in space need more attention. This is the recommendation of a 2005 report from the US National Academies of Science. Yet I have encountered all sorts of bizarre problems when bringing up the topic of sex in space.

I would imagine sex in space would be quite difficult. The whips and chains would just hang in mid air, and the midget dressed as a clown would be stuck on the ceiling!

I have it on good authority that Yoda is the illegitimate child of Miss Piggy by Kermit the Frog. Which implies that we need to be very, very careful with Sex In Space.

Anyone who's watched the original Star Trek knows that sex in space, even with alien humanoid species, is possible. Captain Kirk proved it by going where no man had gone before. About every other episode.

(Happy now?)

Whaaaaat?

What kind of gratuitous anti-american horsecrap is that? Yet by any survey we have more kids, more sex and more funky kink than anyone in the world....

Let's discuss that guy kissing my ass.

Okay. I can't resist. I'm sure Captain Kirk would love to take Yeoman Rand for a rocket ride.
