Ladies and gentlemen, I am about to begin discussing a certain subject that many people seem to have a problem with discussing.
Sex.
First of all, there are many different varieties of sexother than the ones conventionally thought of as sex, these are: same-sex sex, multi-person sex, and masterbation. Most of us know about these types, a few of us may have even experienced these ourselves, but many still don't consider them forms of intercourse.
Another thing people feel about these sexual acts is that a good deal of people consider them wrong.
They are not.
For example, many men masterbate frequently, and people insult it. Though in recent years (mostly due to the seinfeld Effect I'm sure) the social acceptance has become more widespread. There are still those, however, who would say that a "real" man shouldn't have to masterbate. Ask a someone who has been with a frequent masterbater though, it is proven that masterbation keeps fertility up in most men, and increases sexual drive.
A growing number of women masterbate also, though less frequently, as this too becomes more socially accepted. Generally though, sexual satisfaction for a woman is more an emotional stimuli than physical. So rarely do they acheive the same effect as they would in making love with someone they care deeply about.
However, a good deal of men get more satisfaction out of masterbation than out of sex with someone they care about. Mostly due to the fact that men are more physical in nature. Another possiblity is the fear many men face with intimacy and commitment, as it makes them awkward with a woman out of that fear.
Sex is the driving force behind our physical bodies, essentially, that is what they are for, to create.
As I stated earlier, it can be same-gendered in nature. 98% percent of people have homo-erotic dreams, it is my personal belief that all people have bi-sexual tendencies. I am not ashamed to admit my past homosexual experiences, as they were all a part of growing up.
Reasons behind what causes the sexuality in a person abound. I believe that it is a cultural factor in most cases, the more accepted sexual diversity that is accepted in a given enviroment, the more likely it is to appear. This is the source of popular "recruiting" myths as well as fear of "catching it".
With women, it is more predominant mostly because it is more accepted by the public as a whole. This could very possibly be due to the fact that men generally are aroused by the idea of two women together (showing once again how men are more succeptible the physical aspects of sex, rather than the procreational effects). Most women, however, will not become aroused when thinking of two males together. as it is viewed generally as a harsh, violent act.
The penis in itself is a historical case study. With the coming of such contemporaries as Sigmund Freud, the psychology behind the what the penis represents have become more popular.
They are rarely veiwed as soft or inspiring, though how many poems have you seen written on the female body, as compared to how many on the male? Quite a few more lines of poetic beauty are devoted the female form.
In addition, women are generally more accepting the aforementioned alternate lifestyles in men and women. This is most likely due to the fact that they feel less threatened by a homosexual male than by a heterosexual one, combined with the social acceptance of lesbianism it's a wondeer why they don't all practice same-sex sex, as they are forced to hear bout it their whole lives.
I believe that people should be able to feel comfortable in their sexuality and in their naked bodies.
Basically there are only two kinds of nudity and, generally, we have all seen both.
I feel that in a safe enviroment, people should be able to have sex with one another without confusing it with "morals" or what is "proper".
I do believe people should be able to explore what they like, what turns them on, and who does it.
