Kathy, I have a question about this for you, and I beleive it is general
enough for the whole list...

<<Only those in cultures who have *learned* to associate manipulation of the
nipples with sex.  Not in the vast majority of places where breasts play
absolutely no role in sex.  You can also *learn* to be turned on by toe
sucking.  This doesn't make it "natural" or "for all people".>>

Do you mean that we as individuals have each learned to be turned on by
breast stimulation?  Or do you mean as a society we have learned that?  How
did we learn it?  How did those individuals who never had a positive role
model for sexual behavior, or were reared in rigid body-loathing traditions,
learn it?  I am confused as to how one learns something that is so physical -
how one can learn to have a stroke on the nipple be a pleasurable zap in the
brain...  It isn't that I don't beleive you, it is only that I don't
understand...
