We go on and on about how "the world"'s attitude to sex is dysfunctional, but it's us that are fucking pathetic about it.
Why don't Christians talk about sex? I thought it was supposed to be a great gift. I can tell you why - because we're so fucked up about it by the time we get to have it (unless we're fucked up by having when we're not allowed) that we're doing bloody well if we ever enjoy it given all the psychoses our stupid fearful anti-happiness anti-youth anti-fun anti-truth evangelical fucking prison has given us.
No I don't think we should all have sex before marriage (that way of referring to it is just typical) but we should just not be such repressed twats about it.
Why don't married people talk about sex? Because they're ashamed of it.
WHY CAN'T WE ALL GET A LIFE?
Speak for yourself mate!
Speaking in italics is just typical.
Soz - I just haven't got the hang of the correct style yet. Anyway, you can talk, with your large capital letters. Still, at least I'm not giving in to the temptation to be constructive, reasonable and 'helpful'.
I agree. I have never had a problem with talking about sex and some might say that is a bad thing: Especially those who know me. But you are right: Christians as a whole need to lighten up about the whole subject. I doesn't just go for the 'smug marrieds' either. You average non-married Christian can have far too up their own arse views about the taboos of the conversation. I never really understood that. You know what sex is, you more than likely think about sex on at least a 48 hour basis (Maybe even hourly) and you most probably masturbate, even though you would never admit it to the world. I'm not saying you should walk around saying "You'll never guess what but I just had a fantastic wank!" but actually what would be wrong with that. Nowonder so many parents can't talk to their kids about sex when they can't even talk to their peer group. That's Fucked up and although I have no idea who started this thread,(Who are you?) I'm glad you did. Dx
Some cool thoughts in there D - and agree with a lot of it. One thing - as a not-married person, sometimes when married people do talk about sex in a "how great it is and I'm having it and you're not" type way, that's not particularly helpful. (m)
Aye, I can see that. That is not particularly nice of them. Next time just point out that you are a better person than them and that you never liked them anyway ;) Besides, you will soon be joining their ranks anyway... Dx
Well I'm certainly not. Maybe I should just set about them with an iron bar. Or should I come back with "You'll never guess what..."? Interesting you should mention 'up their own arse views', cos I kept mentioning the discussions on GX to a friend of mine as they sounded similar to her thoughts, and then later she described it as 'a website for people who are up their own arses'. (She hasn't actually checked it out yet.)
Maybe she sould before making a judgement... Dx
Ah but that would be too reasonable
I'm often guilty of the same thing. Get her on the site: It would be good to hear from her. Dx
