 SH> "SEXUAL ENCOUNTERS WITH EXTRATERRESTRIALS"
 FA> A sexual  encounter  with  an  alien?  I  know I  am treading  on
 FA> dangerous ground here, but this is  another facet  of Ufology  that is
 FA> very disturbing.   Sexuality.  And  of course  sexuality is  perhaps a
 FA> difficult subject  to approach  in an  open forum  as this  without it
 FA> becoming somewhat crude.  But  a serious  question is  why an  alleged
 FA> alien would wish to have sex with a human.
   To create a human/alien hybrid with the best features of both?
   Because that bit was made up to make the story sell better?
   Because the whole experience was a delusion based on repressed anxieties?
   Take your pick.
 FA> We  do  carry  germs.   Perhaps  lethal  germs, never  mind sexual
 FA> diseases. Again biological systems are not always compatible.
      "The idea that Mr. Spock could be a cross between a human being
   and a life-form independently evolved on the planet Vulcan is far
   less probable than a successful cross of a man and an artichoke.
   The idea does, however, provide a precedent in popular culture for
   the extraterrestrial/human hybrids that later became so central a
   component of the alien abduction story."
      - Carl Sagan
   And then there's the question: the "typical" alien has no obvious
   genetalia, so what does he/she do it *with*?
