I've been reading Jane Auel's new book. The strange thing is, she has this scenario of early man and it almost sounds cult like, down to the sharing of mates and not being jealous, etc., etc. Almost made me want to put the book down - it starts to make me sick. To me, she spoiled the whole series with this. I'm sure Ayla and Jondalar are going to have to end up in bed with others and that irritates me. I feel like I was born a wolf, wanting to mate for life and I'm almost alone in that feeling. Do you know that there is a whole under culture, here in Calif at least, called swinging? That's when couples end up with other couples as a common practice. It's real popular amongst the jet set. I just couldn't handle that. I've sure seen that side of life and I've seen what that does to a marriage and I see no point in it except for a person's own selfish desire. What do you think?
