'Sexuality, then, reveals an openess within the human person that can only be addressed by someone who is both "other" and "same." That an "other" is required can be seen in that Adam's need could not be met by himself alone. That the need be addressed by someone who is also the "same" as Adam is seen in the fact that niether God nor the other animals were suitable to serve as a counterpart for Adam. Thus, the sexual human being finds within itself a desire for another in whom there is both difference and identity.'
Marc Cortez, Theological Anthroplogy, p.65.
