Canto 6. Excess (Sept. 2014)
(third manifestation)

There is little to explain regarding excess or gluttony.
Dante placed gluttony lower in his vision of hell
than lasciviousness because gluttony is a more purely
selfish and beastly surrender to the base cravings
of ones flesh, with nothing given back to another person
as is the case with forbidden sex between two people.
