Subject: Is -blam!-ity Good in our Culture?

What I mean is does this high form of pleasure healthy in our culture? While -blam!- freedom is often seen as a good thing in that we can do when we want to, where we want to, and how we want to so easily is it good?

Things to consider:
How we think of the other partner or partners.
If striving for this is worth it.
How -blam!-ity is viewed in our culture.

Would your view of that partner change though?

Thank you, someone saw through the "blams".

Its occurrence is caused either by some sort of massive chemical imbalance in the body or genetics. Either way, there is nothing wrong with it because it is natural.

Definitely. "Satisfaction" is an important factor for a couple to survive.

Would it being natural be consider a feeling?

I can't see through the -blam!-s

I'm assuming this is a LGBT thread?

Would you just see the person as the other who makes you feel good and helps you out? Basically would the change in perspective just be against what a relationship should achieve?

Inappropriate. Went a little to far with the butt hole tearing.

Our culture? What does that even mean?

Ahh, I get you.
I'm too tired to formulate a well thought out response, but I have an opinion that it's healthy and 'morally right' in my eyes as long as it's with a committed partner, or at least fair on all involved.

For the most part, it's viewed positively, with exceptions to different orientations and lifestyles.

I still don't like how you used the term "our culture". I don't think of America(or any other country) being one homogeneous culture. Certainly, different religious and ethnic groups have various views on sex and the expression thereof.

Well in that case, I think that ultimately sexua1ity is a good thing for people provided it is done by people who love each other and is done either with protection or by people who know the consequences (pregnancy and/or disease) and are willing to handle them themselves. I personally think that the western world's openness to sexua1ity--combined with the conservative taboo against contraceptive--is a deadly, horrible combination that is responsible for the spread of disease and unwanted pregnancy plaguing modern society. You have people hearing that sex is good and natural and that if it feels good, they should have it, and then you have them hearing that contraceptive is evil. So what do they do? They have sex without contraceptive and problems arise--this is especially true among my native Hispanic ethnic group.

People should either be abstinent until they are ready to accept the consequences of sex or they should have safe-sex with contraceptive and still be willing to accept the consequences if their contraceptive fails. I blame conservatism for its taboo against contraceptive, and I blame postmodernism for its "if it feels good, do it" attitude toward everything that seems to promote nothing but stupidity and ignorance--people not thinking out the consequences of their actions.
