a new way of thinking about something

[psymarie]

namely, my extended group of friends. i had a conversation the other day about the ridiculously incestuous nature of our relationships. i mean, we've swapped partners like we're in some twisted square dance.
then i said, no, it's not twisted.
it's just that we are like bonobo chimpanzees.
we forge and strengthen all our social bonds through nonprocreative sex.
