Glad you understood, yes, it makes you pig!
You would jump on that "object" and ruin your relationship just because it looks very pretty. Those are the qualities of shallow people, which can be called pigs too, or any other animal. Perhaps cat sounds better to you and not so offended...but its still wild nature emotion which if you cant control, then you are animal...and if you can control it, then you are human.
I always say that we all have wild animal instincts and urges, but our acts makes us humans (especially in such situations where you need to prove your humanity). Ok for you and your wife, you both found an equal partner with green light for such low urges and needs....i guess you can live in such RL and it is good for you.
But its not good for me and i wont change my opinion and identity just because you think we all should (and would) do the same.
