The "L" word is one of the most widely used yet wrongly represented words. It is the most desired taboo, the greatest fantasy and cause of most failures in human history. It is soothing yet lethal, necessary but difficult to posses. It may even be the source or the goal of religion. And for all these definitional challenges, calling the physical harmony of two or more bodies "making love" can be very confusing, consuming and even confronting.
