Scientific means after discussing for some time you propose that "Let us enjoy sex." That's all.
Prabhupāda: When the animal enjoy sex, they know which part of the body has to be used.
Hari-śauri: They don't have to be taught.
Prabhupāda: There is no need of education. He knows it. And these rascals, they are presenting Freud's philosophy, sex. Just see how they are wasting time.
Hari-śauri: They have so many books now on so-called sex education, so many of them.
Prabhupāda: Simply wasting time. There is a story about this. One man was canvassing, hawking. Hawker?
Hari-śauri: Yes, hawker.
Prabhupāda: So he was, "Here is a book of cow protection, cow protection." He has written one book to take care of the cows. So one old man called him, "What you are selling?" Now, "I am selling this book." "What is that book?" "Maintaining the cow." So, "Why you are selling? First of all give this book to your mother because you are no better than cow, so she will learn how to give you protection." That means he wanted to impress upon him that "Cow protection doesn't require any education. You have written a book? So you are such a rascal, cow intelligence. Better give this book to your mother. She will maintain you. Don't sell it. Everyone knows how to give cow protection." So similarly, this sex literature, there is no need of sex literature. Sex literature is there in Sanskrit also. That is how to restrict sex. For what purpose one should indulge in sex, that is called Kāma-śāstra. I have seen this Freud philosophy became so prominent that sometimes in the year... 1940's maybe. So one young woman was traveling, and another young man was traveling. So they began to discuss about sex very openly. And both of them unknown. Still, they engaged themselves in discussing the sex literature, without any shame.
Hari-śauri: Pseudo-intellectuals. Shameless.
Prabhupāda: Yes. Young boy, young girl, they began to discuss on sex openly as scientific.
Hari-śauri: What is this scientific?
Prabhupāda: Scientific means after discussing for some time you propose that "Let us enjoy sex." That's all. It is common thing in your country, unknown girl, unknown boy, and talk for some time, "Let us go to some restaurant," and then talk more intimately, and then sex.
Hari-śauri: That's the whole social system.
Prabhupāda: "Would you like to sex?" And who is the young man, young... They'll deny it. I know this. During ball dance they embrace one another, another's wife, another husband, and in ball dance... Or there are side rooms. Naturally they'll feel sex and they go to the side room and discuss. Is it not?
Devotee: Yes.
Hari-śauri: The only reason they go to a dance is to pick up some woman for sex life. That's all.
Prabhupāda: Yes.
Hari-śauri: Most of my friends used to go out specifically to find some woman to have sex.
Prabhupāda: This dancing club means this. (end)
