Sex is Dirty
Should we not try for some consistency in our thoughts. But we rarely see any consistency when we speak of sex. From the same people we must hear half the time that sex is wonderful, beautiful, and oh so fulfilling… that is them considering their own sexual experiences. But then, the other half of the time, we have to hear about sex as a criminal perversion – that is the sex acts of homosexuals, pedophiles, rapers, etc.
But Sex is either beautiful or its not. Wonderful or its not. But that is not what we hear. Especially regarding Pedophilia. When have we ever heard that we should be counseling the victims that sex is beautiful and that they should be proud and happy that they are getting theirs early. We are so worried that the victims of pedophilia will be forever damaged with guilt and shame. Well, that hadn’t been a problem for them before they were caught and exposed, was it? What guilt? What shame? Where they not as carefree as little monkeys? Indeed, the little tikes were quite okay with it before they were given the mixed message that sex is beautiful everywhere else except when it is with them when it all at once becomes a criminal perversion. We tell them as we put their sex partner in prison, that it is nothing for they themselves to be ashamed of. We send them to Psychiatrists so they won’t be damaged for like and ashamed of what they obviously were not ashamed of before Society caught them at it. Huh? It’s the mixed messages that screw them up.
The same argument applies to all criminalized sex. If it is so wonderful and beautiful then why is it so severely criminalized in some instances.
Also, if sex is so wonderful and beautiful then why is it that in almost every language the same word is used to convey the meaning of ‘ultimate humiliation’ as is used for referring to the sex act. What do enemies jeer at each other but insults couched in colloquial sexual terms. That is what men REALLY think about the sex act.
And when women protect their children from being sexually exploited, then THAT is what they really think about sex.
When any of us can get past the physical urge and appetite for sex, and examine what we really think about it, with our heads and not with our genitalia, we must admit to ourselves that, yes, sex is dirty. When our personal justifications for it are folded back in the least, we find sex disgusting and humiliating.
