The people that make up his imaginary society have no conception of love or any other passion, and actually scorn the idea. The Utopian State cannot afford any kind of instability and therefore cannot afford love. The destruction of the family is one example of the effect of Utopia's absence of love. The term’s mother and father are extremely insulting and are rarely used. In reality, the family unit is the center of society. A home is where people learn to form contact and relationships. Without a family, a person cannot learn these relationships which are useful in dealing with everyday life in society. In the brave new world, it is taught that "everyone belongs to everyone else." Excessive sex with many partners is considered normal and even expected. In actual society, love is a precious emotion. Our society cannot exist without passion because it is the foundation of all relationships. Unlike Utopia, sexual re
