Sex, sin and filth - part 2

"You f*cking c*nt".

(I'm using "*" because I don't want an age warning page on my blog. Even though it goes against my principles!).

Let's try another variant:
"You eating nose".

Hmm, doesn't work, why?

Eating, like f*cking, is a pleasurable bodily activity.
A nose, like a c*nt, is an opening to our internals.
So....?

"You intellectual dwarf" rarely has the same sting as "Small/limp dick!"
"Slag" easily outpowers "Excessive shopper!"
"Drunk" is kindly compared to "Wanker".

So, and this is a rhetorical question, why do aggression and insult always call upon sex and sexual parts?

I said it was rhetorical, here is the answer: Suppression/Repression.
The only competitor to sex/sexual parts is bodily excretia. Kids start out with smelly poo, piss, (simply because parents don't like it) and work their way up to d*cks and c*nts.

Another rhetorical question - why did Janet Jackson showing a glittery star covered nipple cause more outcry (and changes in broadcasting rules) than images of zhombies eating living people's heads?

Supression and repression.

In the same way that "Ban abortion, save lives" generates passion whereas "Save the (already born) children" stimulates apathy. The moral high ground can be taken without shifting that lazy arse. And picketing an abortion clinic is closer to home than some weird African state. And unborn babies aren't drug takers and shoplifters are they. Unborn babies are still adorable angels.

There are several roots to this madness.
1. Sex is a free, non-taxable, pleasure. How do we control the peasants if they have this free pleasure?
2. Sex can tend to lead to tenderness and intimacy. You can't start a war by saying "Make love better than those bloody Germans".
3. Supression/repression creates a self-fullfilling prophecy. The sexually repressed/frustrated then do behave badly - so sin can then be almost accurately attributed to sex. (In fact, it's lack of sexual outlets, but lets not become sensible about this eh).
4. Sex sells - but only because it represents something not available. How many men really will get to f*ck that model in the advertisements? Why, of course they will, if they buy xyz..... How many overweight middle aged women will get to maul that 20 year old hunk dripping water down his superb torso? Of course they will, if they buy xyz....

I stated in part 1 that sex is not important unless there is a problem with the sexual aspects of a relationship. Same goes with day to day living.
The sexually repressed, guilt ridden, damaged sections of humanity do what people always do - they mask their problems and passionately condemn all areas where others aren't sharing the problem.
Look at ex-smokers and their fanatacism towards non-smoking.

And these fanatics spread their illness like a virus, contaminating the healthy.

Ask them to explain why victorian men went wild over piano legs, muslims go out of control over an exposed head of hair, yet europeans don't go on a raping spree after a day of bikinis or exposed breasts at the beach - silence is the reply. Silence or lies and denial. Of course those europeans have become uncontrolled sex maniacs!

Rape is always used as the bogey man of sex, the result of sexual freedom. Two people kissing passionately in a film will lead to an increase in the numbers of rapes - won't it!?
These preachers never bother to discover that most rapes have nothing to do with the sexual act as such - rape is about control, and raping a woman provides that sexual stigma that increases the power. It would be interesting to see if rapists turned to crushing hands if hands became the objects of repression.

There are four aspects of sex that stands it apart from other bodily activities.
1. It can lead to unwanted pregnancy. (A matter of education, held back by repression/suppresion).
2. Sexually transmitted diseases. Funny isn't it, this is more a bogey man that the equally fatal hepatitus spread by unwashed hands and cooking/eating.
3. The man goes inside the woman, invading her internal space. (So does someone sneezing next to you, with some very unpleasant side effects at times). So does someone shooting you or sticking a knife into you.....(see 4. below). We could talk about intimacy here, but many women do enjoy non-intimate sex - so it really is a red herring. It's a mind set thing.
4. Stigma. A woman allowing a man inside her carries so much baggage. We all know the "men sowing their oats is natural and OK, women doing so are slags". No stigma attaches to a knife wound, no blame shed towards the woman. But if she is raped......!!!!!
