One possibility is free expression. This raises a question about Pirsig's
levels. Suppose an individual's sexual fulfillment is biological & is being
surpressed by society (wearing burkas, genital mutilation, foot binding,
whatever.) Is it good for society to do this just because it's at a higher
level?
