Disclaimer: Just to clarify, the intended message of this comic strip is simply, "don't let sex control you." It's about a Buddhist kind of transcending of desire, a process of acknowleging desire, and dispassionately observing it in such a way that desire is uncoupled from compulsion. This strip is about abstinence, but not the repressive kind one usually sees pushed on the young. Anything else you might choose to read into it is soley your own imagination.
