According to Morrissey, the human mind is limited when it comes to sex...

Limitations . . . (Score:1)
The only restrictions and limits to the human mind are those we place upon ourselves.

There are no limits to the human mind.

Read/watch The Secret or study Quantum Physics.

    1950s and 1960s . . . (Score:3, Informative)
    From a social historical point of view, Linder's comments about sexuality in the 1950s and 1960s were massively inaccurate.

    i) The 1950s were the baby boomer years after the war. So everyone was making babies during this time and the population soared.

    ii) The 1960s saw the growth of freedom and emancipation for women, in 1961 the birth control Pill was made available to all.

    iii) Fashion, art, music and literature became very open, the mood epitomised by Mary Quant's mini dress, a girl could afford a mini car and a new dress every week.

    These were colourful times.

    It could not have been possible to live in a large city and 'miss' what was happening, surely?

        It was a quote taken from a conversation interview with Mary Quant, she wanted a girl to be able to afford a new dress every week, women were working now and had an independence they had not had before.

            I doubt it Anon, today (2010) females are treated as second class workers and earn about 35-40% less than a male. It is not going to change anytime soon.

            The only way, for a female to earn a significant wage/salary is to have her own business.

          I really don't understand why Morrissey bothered with this Linder's art. It's so trashy. Speaking on artificial representation of sexuality...

              Sex has always been a bit of a puzzler for Moz. He has shown quite an interest in it, however. His lyrics used to relay an unsureness about sex. I think that was the reason for his self-imposed celibacy. He wanted to study the subject for a while before participating. I don't think sex is that difficult actually. It is simple mechanics. It's all the relationship b.s. and feeling, caring, nurturing, g spot-psycho babble that we humans attach to it that makes it difficult. As usual it is over-analyzed like everything else. His song, Stretch Out and Wait, is one of my all time favorites. I think he captures the instinctual simplicity of sex within those lyrics. I was happy to see Linder reference it in her response. His way of saying nature will take its course, so to speak. And it always does!
