Over at Harvard, Sex and the Ivy blogger Lena Chen and Janie Fredell, co-president of the True Love Revolution, discussed sex and relationships on Thursday. Interestingly enough, it looks like no one came out of it persuaded of anything.

I’m not really sure why they bothered. It’s like putting a miniskirted Richard Dawkins in a room with the Pope– they both have strong opinions, and a polite hour-long question-and-answer session isn’t going to change anyone’s mind.

It could’ve been interesting if they’d mixed it up. Maybe with students from different parts of the US, other nations, and some fun religions (a Mormon, a Hindu, and a Jew walk into a sex panel…) they could’ve had a good discussion, but two complete opposites are no fun.

While I didn’t make it to Harvard to attend the event, I’ve learned a few things from the excerpts over at IvyGate. Namely that all women, virgins or not, can unite over “battery-powered objects.” Who knew?

P.S. Check out the comments at IvyGate for an interesting debate on (I kid you not) the science of the Biblical flood and the accuracy of the Bible. Random.
