Most any taboo-- that is something that is commonly done but which cannot be talked openly about because of societal pressure-- is a pressure point that can be manipulated to control people because they have been trained not to look at it analyticaly & many get darned uncomfortable when someone tries to. You should see the response I get to talking openly about poly as a potentially very healing & logical response to human emotional & sexual needs. The most common answer I get is a nice tautology that *It won't work because most people won't do that because most people don't do that*
