This is your story—of why and how you love as you do. It is the story of the most universal and at the same time the most individual and personal of human experiences as it has evolved in the Western world. There are those who think the manner of loving, the closest relationship between and among the sexes, has always been the same. Nothing is farther from the truth. So this is the story of love as it has been lived out of the warm blood, the passions, the hopes, the griefs, the frustrations, and the aspirations of men and women who will not let life become a matter of creeds and controls because Nature did not create it that way.
