Encounters of that kind topic

I came of age during that revolution. Because of the excessive prudery of the past, western society went the other way. From one extreme to another. Instead of treating relations between the sexes and genders as adult choices, sex became a four letter word and was considered dirty. Now that we can talk about it freely, it is all over the place, the internet, the cell phone the crackberry, and is associated with violence, porn and even pedophilia instead of private love between consenting adults.

The problem is so complex and entangled I do not think it can be solved by any one means.

How do I handle it? I try to ignore the silly excesses and do not fall prey to the scams that seem to come out of sex talk, and this includes even so-called legitimate mainstream stuff like radio talk show host Sue Johanson whose treatment of the S- subject was supposed to bring it out in the open so that people would see it as a natural thing and not get caught up in the hype being complained about here.

I understand.

They very intolerant of prostitutes and still suppressive or sexually harrassing of women trying to express their sexuality.

The only person being bitchy on this thread is you. No need to project it onto other people.

"how dare"? If you have a rant on here, thats fair enough. But if your insulting a lot of people on the site and most of the population, you shouldn't really expect everyone to be sympathetic.

don't start with that. Leave it for the religion thread.

Sex is...meh I got nothin, I'll just quote mighty boosh.

"How naive you are. If there is one thing I have learned in all my life as a traveling musician, it is that love is never free. It makes a mockery of humanity, the things men will do for those one and a half minutes of pleasure." -Rudi
"One and half minutes?" -Spider

Ps. nice dp hale bopp, LoZ MM FTW

lol

Who's they? You're confusing asexual people with prudes (who are usually heterosexual males BTW). Personally I wouldn't care if prostitution were made legal. I also don't care how people express their sexuality. I think people who believe it's 'indecent' for a woman to show her breasts are being ridiculous.

What bothers me is groups of guys who talk about sex constantly and make me feel ostracized for not wanting to talk about it. Or they silently think I must be gay if I don't want to talk about sex.

I'm taking about asexual as (they) Society in general. Sex use to be so privatised and thats when husband raped thier wives and paedophiles didnt get caught - Now it's out in the open. It's healthy to discuss such topics.

What I find is that people rarely discuss sex in a straight honest way. It's all about innuendo and banter.

But surely one can only discuss sex so much before it becomes unhealty.

- What is that? I am always honest when I talk about sex. How cannot you not be any other way except reflect on your experiences and how you feel.

and why?

Here is something that's annoying, someone starts talking about sex in a gross way to you and you don't like it and they tell you it's normal and you can't get a guy that way if you don't like it. Makes men sound like pigs. It's even more annoying when they ridicule you for not liking it or try and shove it in your face.

I think there is a general view that sex is about competition, like if a guy slept with loads of girls he must be a proper alpha male. So people (especially guys) often make out that there more successful and dominant than they actually are, and they often do this with innuendo. If you add to that the fact that a lot of people (especially girls) are to some extent ashamed of their sexual desires then you end up with a situation with a lot of people talking a lot of s**t.

I agree that it's pretty stupid and I like to think that I manage to be pretty honest about these sort of things but a lot of people don't feel that way.
