"Genital love leads to the formation of new families, and aim inhibited love to friendships' which become valuable from a cultural standpoint because they escape some of the limitation of genital love, as, for instance, its exclusiveness" (p. 58).
During class this issue was brought up of different types of love. However, in culture there are different kinds of relationships that occur in types of society. There are situations where an individual is not looking for "love" but a different kind of relationship where frienship is not the intended goal. I just thought that it was interesting that he defined love as having different levels and different interpretations by individuals.
