Ah, now I am starting to see why you were so vehement about your categorizations of libertines -- it was something that was very important for you and those you deeply cared for, socially. And yes, the snooty upper social strata folk that think they can do whatever they want to whomever they want, and who believe NO ONE else can do anything even resembling what they do, is very much something wise to distance yourself from! Looking back, how common was people simply not wanting emotionally deep relationships, and wanting to enjoy physical needs and play in *general*, regardless of social status or appropriateness, or even what prime species was involved? Thinking back on folk you know, were there many, across many economic and social statuses, that you think would have been happiest behaving that way?
