     Our needs for human intimacy and sexual relationships
confront us with a dilemma as regards developing a healthy
balance  between  being in control to  avoid  the  dangers
present in risky sexual relationships; and letting go in a
healthy way  and  becoming  connected  with  integrity  in
playful sexual fulfillment with openness and honesty.

     With  inadequate  emphasis upon technical  knowledge,
competence  and  control---we  are likely  to  become  the
victims of:

     1.  Sexually transmitted diseases,
     2.  Unwanted pregnancies and responsibilities,
     3.  Premature sexual bonding and commitments,
     4.  Addictive/codependent disintegration,
     5.  Tragic attempts to exceed our human limits,
     6.  Population explosion with all its consequences,
     7.  The risks of imprudent fantasies and passions,

     With  compulsive unbalanced emphasis  upon  technical
knowledge,  competence and control we are likely to become
the victims of:

     1.  Deadly objectivity and technocracy,
     2.  Addictions to manipulations and controls,
     3.  Unforgiving judgmentalism and legalism,
     4.  Alienation, misunderstanding and violence,
     5.  Emotionally dead and insensitive people,
     6.  Unresolved internalized conflicts,
     7.  Dishonesty and confusion about ideals & values.
     8.  Dishonest games of mutual self deception.

     No  exclusive kind of excellence or  superiority  can
save us from the tragic consequences one kind of  emphasis
upon what is essential to healthy living,  at the  expense
of inadequate emphasis  upon  complimentary considerations
of other essentials  to  healthy  living.   Specialization
upon  exclusive  consideration  of essentials  to  healthy
living leads  to  disintegration.     The  fact  that some
considerations  are  essential  does not  mean  that  such
considerations  should be exclusive of other complimentary
considerations.
