My views on Elizabeth Wong

From the "Let's Get It On" album liner notes by Marvin Gaye:-


" I CAN'T SEE ANYTHING WRONG WITH SEX BETWEEN CONSENTING ANYBODIES. I THINK WE MAKE FAR TOO MUCH OF IT. AFTER ALL, ONE'S GENITALS ARE JUST ONE IMPORTANT PART OF THE MAGNIFICENT HUMAN BODY. I HAVE NO ARGUMENT WITH THE ESSENTIAL PART THEY PLAY IN THE REPRODUCTION OF THE SPECIES; HOWEVER, THE REPRODUCTIVE PROCESS HAS BEEN ASSURED BY THE PLEASURE BOTH PARTIES RECEIVE WHEN THEY ENGAGE IN IT. I CONTEND THAT SEX IS SEX AND LOVE IS LOVE. WHEN COMBINED, THEY WORK WELL TOGETHER, IF TWO PEOPLE ARE OF ABOUT THE SAME MIND. BUT, THEY ARE REALLY TWO DISCRETE NEEDS AND SHOULD BE TREATED AS SUCH. TIME AND SPACE WILL NOT PERMIT ME TO EXPOUND FURTHER, ESPECIALLY IN THE AREA OF THE PSYCHE. I DON'T BELIEVE IN OVERLY MORALISTIC PHILOSOPHIES. HAVE YOUR SEX, IT CAN BE VERY EXCITING, IF YOU'RE LUCKY. I HOPE THE MUSIC THAT I PRESENT HERE MAKES YOU LUCKY.
