Differing Preoccupations

YOU PUBLISHED A LETTER ((NOV. 7)) from Mahin Yazdani responding to your report on "Sex in America" that said, "The world is struggling with war and starvation, and America is preoccupied with sex." But a quick glance at the article suggests that America is preoccupied with talk of sex. The other half of the world -- struggling with starvation, war and overpopulation -- is preoccupied with actually having sex.
