Agree. And whenever I see someone recommend Peter Watts I feel the need to add a note warning that he's got a lot of sexual torture stuff in his work so might not be to everyone's taste.

...There's sexual torture content in Blindsight? Or in his short stories? Having read several of them, I really don't remember anything like that. Can you note some examples?

It's off-page in Blindsight, but happens to the protagonist, right?

I'd rather not. That stuff isn't my cup of tea. Why don't you just google it.

As opposed to the tortuous sex in Ayn Rand.
