It’s not clear to me if Professor George’s view of the complementary nature of male and female is limited to their procreative potential, because I think it runs much deeper than that. Anyone who cannot see the complementarity in man and woman’s emotional, psychological, physical (beyond sexual), cognitive, and perspectival bonding , and in every other way people relate to each other, simply hasn’t been paying attention.

A husband and wife could never be completely “infertile” in their lovemaking.
