Self-Conscious Complicity

Biologically, we are all involved in transmitting particular forms through evolving time. We call the process genetics. In this we are one with the plants and animals, but the great difference between the forms and classes of life in this respect is the absence or presence (and the degree) of will-or what I want to call self-conscious complicity in regenerative procedures. That is a long-winded and sterile substitute for what we should mean, but nowadays seldom do, by the word sex.
