The Vedics met and mixed freely with the opposite sex and worked and raised cattle for money and career. And they got married primarily to enjoy sex.

It's even more fun when you have money and cattle. We don't have any Soma around here, but we do have lots of Lone Star beer and we sacrifice lots of cows at outdoor bar-b-ques down by the river, so in that sense, the Texas is the *ideal* Vedic culture.
