Well, Doc, you asked me who David Deida is so I thought a video of him teaching
was a really good way to answer that. Anyway, his ex wife Sofia Diaz is at 42
seconds, in the audience, a dark haired woman bt a bald guy and a blond woman.

Share, sounds to me like you are saying the Brits were puritanical about sex,
so they imposed their cultural taboos on India, and therefore, continued to be
puritanical about sex. I would think they continued to be puritanical, because
they had been for a long time. In other words, no mystery there. I doubt India
had a greater influence, more than any other colony in the British Empire, on
the Brits continuing their cultural ways, including their puritanical
attitudes. Who is David Deedah, anyway?
