... Was it all about sex?
... Can you wait a few moments for an answer? Ami's about to orgasm.
,,, The short answer is; yes, of course, what were you thinking?
... The honest answer -as you might have guessed- is more complex.

... No, they did not have sex 24-7.
Were they some form of "naked" 24-7?
Yes, but as with anything, if it goes on long enough it becomes common place and your mind wanders to other things. Ami eventually became comfortable (in a limited fashion) with her nakedness. And with comfort her mind wandered to other things.

...
Of course every where she looked she saw naked women but
eventually she got used to that (and so they were merely nude, not naked).
And then there was Cheryl & Beth, who could be seen groping each other virtually
24-7. But eventually that wasn't sex, that was just Cheryl & Beth. And then
there was Carol who Ami became convinced was a nymphomaniac, if she wasn't riding
Jason, she was riding someone else or a vibrator or (well etc., etc.).
... Yes, there was an extensive porno video collection that was well used and the movies in the theater leaned heavily to the erotic. Ami could and did depend on at least one orgasm a day and there was a lot of mutual petting during the movies. Jason sometimes took her when she delivered coffee. He often took a girl by the pool in the mornings. And he took at least one girl to bed with him every night (but with twelve to choose from no girl could depend upon this).
... And of course sex was a constant topic of conversation. But "was it all about sex?"
... No.


... Ami and Persephone were not thinking about sex while they tried to bash each other's brains out in the boxing ring. Most of the girls were not thinking about sex while they worked out (although having an orgasm during leg lifts was not an uncommon goal). They did not think about sex while playing poker, watching Oprah, playing football, water polo, tennis, badminton, chess, reading academic journals, etc.

... Sex was, by design, a constant element of the environment. And for reasons none of them entirely understood (Jason had applied some chemical agents here) they were all hornier then they had ever been in their lives. And yet, sex was not the constant.
... It was just the only "important" thing that went on. (If you would like [send those e-mail's to wjscott@eee.org] we can supply you with links to the academic texts that Ami and Persephone spent hours each day reading. We have not included the experience of their expanding knowledge as we assumed the interested audience to be small. We can also link you to the body building program that April pursued and the television guides for the years spent watching that Gina, Agnes and others pursued. If desired, we can include the text of the cards, letters, and phone calls between Ami and Aaron, Agnes and her Gran, Cheryl and her daughter [all one way there we're afraid], the police files on Beth, there's no documentation from the people looking for Maria, and of course the relevant files for Mimi, Carol, Brittanie and India.)
... But sex was the "coin of the realm." As said above, sex was the only important thing that went on. That too is not entirely true. Sex was often the instrument through which important emotional and geopolitical things were expressed, developed and forwarded. And for any new person (and a girl was considered new for at least six months) the sex was the biggest change for them and thus the biggest thing taking up their mental energies.
