I was fortunate to know an old pirate, a man of the sea, who, in his late 80's and early 90's had a bevy of younger women happy of his acquaintance. One day he confided in me that, to his great sorrow, the hand pump device that was his last resort (after viagra no longer sufficed him) no longer availed either.

There was nothing unnatural about him. That was a man.

Neither does our clothing, which protects us from thorns and chill, make us cyborgs. It is because we are men that we command the forces of nature to augment those powers and abilities that emanate from within us.
