  I think the whole point is that the comparisons don't work! so it would eeem quite fair (though complex) to redistribute them I read that as a bit of ajitprop against the idea of redistribution. There are two kinds of voluntary redistribution that have worked to prevent the basic psychological conflict that arises from relative poverty. The sharing of benefits to large numbers of the public, and an economy that lets large numbers of people participate. The former wouldn't work with sex very easily. The latter has historical precedent.

  > some people (capitalists) would be getting lots of other peoples' (workers') orgasms Isn't that plainly the case? The distribution of sex experiences is likely very skewed, just inferring from network effects.

    Indeed, but everyone is at least getting their own orgasms, even if some are getting much more than others. The capitalism mapping would be that, as a worker, you do the seduction, foreplay, and most of the build-up, and then hand the profits, the orgasm, to the owner of the venue that facilitated the encounter. And those owners are getting far more orgasms that they can possibly enjoy directly, it becomes about the pleasure they get from the power of having so much more than everyone else.
