Ah yes, now I remember this fun and interesting piece, which I enjoyed editing and contributing to. I still laugh at my own initial reaction to the term--it doesn't make me think of various forms of sex tech--for me it sounds like someone who prefers masturbation to other-person contact.

Reviewing the article, I can spot a few of my contributions, such as the mention of the 1970s Woody Allen movie Sleeper which takes place in a future where couples enter a machine together called the orgasmatron, and my suggestion of this adapted quote, which applies well to today's article and the spiritual nature of personal decisions and fluidity in the realm of sex and sexual specrums:

“[Creeds] cannot stand Spirituality. [They] cannot abide it. For Spirituality may bring you to a different conclusion than a particular dogma — and this no known [creed] can tolerate. [Rules] encourage you to explore the thoughts of others and accept them as your own. Spirituality invites you to toss away the thoughts of others and come up with your own.”― Neale Donald Walsch, The Complete Conversations with God.
