Hey Ayadew, I sure would! I can't read enough about those mysterious chakras, and how to balance them. You gave a lovely response by the way.
Thefool, My hunch is that a sincere thrust towards either polarity will naturally result in the red/orange/yellow chakra usage. The only way not to use the chakras consciously or unconsciously is to just ignore all desire at self improvement, relationship improvement or societal improvement. Note that many people have no idea what a chakra is, but through their life work, ambitions, and/or desire to make things better for themselves, their loved ones or their community these energy centers become unblocked (or sometimes blocked) all the time.
The only way you could possibly not use your lower chakras is if you only focus on satisfying your basic human needs and don't ponder the meaning behind anything very often. I'd venture that someone who makes the intellectual choice to go STO or STS couldn't possibly do that.
Last note, I don't think they have to be totally unblocked as long as the seeker is sincere.
