[ 72% of USENETTER's prefer a hug to a bug - Jeff S makes up the other 28%]

Since I'm getting tired of the seemingly endless discussion
of:
   the social merits (or lack thereof) of pornography, and
   whether I should cross the street to avoid a paranoid person :-),
in net.women,
and:
   whether we should nuke Jeff S. :-)
in net.singles,
I think its time to start a new discussion. I'm sure everyone has heard of
the Ann Landers survey, where 72% of the women who responded
said that they'd prefer "just a hug" to sex. (Total of >90000 responses).

How about it, netters (male and female)? - Which do you prefer:
1) Sex, 2) a hug, 3) reading Ann Landers, 4) none of the above (for Jeff :-)

Did Jerry Fallwell and friends stuff the ballot box (again :-), or is this
some new (or not so new?) trend in America's sexuality?
Maybe the observations of profound social change, reported by others
in net.singles, are more widespread than even previously thought!
