Sexual addiction! and Male-Female energy roles/energies

[fairyfarmgirl]

Fantastic post, Pablisimo! That was a pleasure to read- do not fear that you're being received as long winded. I very much appreciate you, and everyone here for sharing so candidly and being so willing to jump in and really examine these topics from all angles. I've mostly just had my own thoughts to examine and re-examine over the last 5 or so years while I grew more uncomfortable with my habits. That can be a real dead end after a while. Having all of your voices to add in with my own has opened up many new avenues of thought to explore.

Regarding the way males respond to visual sexual stimuli, yes, I couldn't agree more. It's a fact that has been exploited by the media and advertisers in the last 60 years or so, in ever increasing "density" shall we say. It's almost a collective neurosis, which might be a good side discussion at a later point. But suffice to say, I would be willing to stake that no male in western culture can go through life without being effected by it to some degree. I'm also quick to add that this does not excuse anyone from being responsible. But yes, it's very true that we have the extra baggage of finding an internal balance that our perhaps more evolved female counterparts do not, in general, have to worry about

This is a typical male response to feminine energy--- And what of the cultures where women are wearing the chadorah... or in cultures where every one is naked--- Rape and subjectation and objectifying of women still occurs... boys--- you miss the point this is about power and the misuse of power. Claiming that you are victims of your anatomy is a cop-out.
