SEX.
Yep, I said it. Sex.
It’s everywhere, let’s face it.
There is so much “Taboo” around this topic yet we are all so afraid to talk about it. Enough is enough!
We all know it’s on eachother’s minds in some way or another and, let’s face it, who can blame us?! What with Valentines Day approaching and the controversial “50 Shades of Grey” movie coming out. . . Yeah, no comment.
Personally, I just think the world has gone a little nuts. (No pun intended)
It all really boils down to biology and that basic need to make copies of ourselves – science is very selfish you see.
BUT being human, emotions and hormones play a major role in everything we do, so it’s not as straight forward as making personal minions with a suitable partner to slowly, but ultimately, take over the world…we have to complicate things with feelings.
Growing up in my religion I have been very much sheltered with regards to what really “goes on” behind closed doors but I have always been told it is something beautiful and sacred and loving. However, watching movies and listening to the radio and reading magazines and … well, basically everything else in life, seems to give an entirely different message!
Pornography dominates the internet and takes many souls down with it. Teenage pregnancies are an increasing problem. Divorce is common. Social media would also have you believe that a standard Friday night looks like this:
* and I’m sure for many this is “the norm”
But in reality, most of us spend our weekends like this:
Yum.
There are so many “do’s” and “don’t”s, so many expectations and judgments and so many derogatory and filthy things associated with sex nowadays and we are all expected to go along with it and pretend that we are all ok with it.
I am now going to express my inner-hippie and say I wish things could all be simple again. Love and peace would abound and there would be rainbows and unicorns dancing across the sky.
But seriously, the world is a dark place – especially at night – and it is so sad.
I propose that we all try to be a bit more loving, a little less aggressive and a little more virtuous towards each other and make sex a little more meaningful xx
* And now I wait and desperately hope I haven’t offended anyone!
