Do we inhabit different worlds?

Strauss Kahn in the courts

“Only” 12 orgies? To those of us delighted with an annual tally of a colleague’s leaving-do, a niece’s wedding and a neighbour’s 60th, such a total seems impressive. Wags immediately pointed out other quarterly events mirroring Strauss-Kahn’s timetable: submitting VAT returns, publications of company reports, tennis Grand Slams.
Yet according to cultural anthropologist Katherine Frank, author of Plays Well in Groups: A Journey Through the World of Group Sex, to orgy aficionados, “only 12” is indeed a drop in the ocean. “There are plenty of large, organised sex social groups, parties and conferences that take place all over the world,” she says. “If that’s what you enjoy, you can easily find something to suit your taste every weekend.”
