@snacks @georgia its possible but its like, misdirected sometimes i think. idealizing lack of sex as well as idealizing excess of sex are both bad in my opinion. it's part of human nature and you have to integrate it into your life while being comfortable with it. or not, which is better than going excess about it in my opinion

@georgia sex addiction is just the consequence of sex repression, just like unhealthy expressions of sex, and nowadays fueled because it's marketable.

@lizzie @snacks @rowb1t exactly, a human being is above other animals in that we aren't a slave to every instinct. we can and should transcend the world of the senses. and in addition to that, I'd argue that the gooner is an unnatural product of ubiquitous pornography, not someone who is merely following instinct.

realcaseyrollins@noauthority.social@georgia I think the companionship of a romantic and/or marital relationship is more important than the sex.
Most people almost literally will whither and die if they do not have both, but having one or the other staves that off a bit.
Of course, having both is best for us, due to how #God designed us.

@sathariel @lizzie @snacks @rowb1t the result of transcending the senses is conscious existence being cleansed. pratyahara is just a step to samadhi. anyway, believing in yoga or the perennial philosophy is not necessary for believing that hedonism is not a good way to live.

@georgia @lizzie @snacks @rowb1t I wasn't talking about hedonism, I was talking about the disadvantages of repression that were the source to create the conditions to the gooner porn addiction and other similar expressions. Think about the sages that realized that sex energy is something we have and it's powerful and beautiful, that is just different in manifestation than others form of energy, and that can be used instead of wasting it.

@sathariel @lizzie @snacks @rowb1t sex in left hand path tantra or in daoist sexual alchemy is controlled. porn and sex addiction and most masturbation is not controlled. I also think that the belief that pornography is fueled by sexual repression is a libertine take. if that were true sex addiction would be more common in conservative societies, not liberal ones.

@georgia @lizzie @snacks @rowb1t yeah cause catholic priests don't rape child, cause conservative politics don't masturbate to trans porn, cause our societies aren't results of centuries of imposed repressive education. I'm not arguing against control (when well understood the meaning of control), I'm arguing against repression.

@sathariel @lizzie @snacks @rowb1t you make a good point re homosexual males becoming presets and conservative politicians. the bacha bazi are similarly an extreme effect of gender apartheid. most priests watch porn ive heard as well. but regardless, I believe sex and porn addiction is more common in sexually "liberated" (lol) societies. I might be wrong though.

@georgia @lizzie @rowb1t and people die as martyrs, soldiers, or to protect loved ones despite the fact that not diying is an important part of live. There's a bunch of shit in us dedicated to making us wanna reproduce, it's just more or less strong and as you've said, an important part of being human is to not just act on every instinct. Yet there's still murderers, rapists, some are so fat it kills them, others starve themselves to death, some will engage in insanely reckless behaviour just to get a thrill

@georgia the average person? Woah, what kind of weirdos are you around ? I mean I get online, but I don't deal with people like that outside of here lol
Statistically speaking, is that even possible with the population of burgers on SSRIs?

@snacks @lizzie @georgia @rowb1t I mean I just consider it a primitive desire like most of the human experience, like jealously, violence, sadness, good, evil. It just is, I don't really feel a way about sex other than discomfort because of being heavily sexualized in society from a young age, but that's not the result of sex itself and I recognize that.
Some people don't participate in it or have an interest and it makes no difference to me. I do notice when someone's entire identity revolves around sex or attention but that's an armchair psychology discussion for another day.

@sathariel @georgia @snacks @rowb1t tbh “catholic priests rape children bc theyre celibate” is a terrible example. the southern baptist convention also has a lot of pastors raping children and their pastors are highly encouraged to be (and almost always are) in sexually active marriages. it has more to deal with the kind of authority they wield over their communities than “repression”

@lizzie @sathariel @snacks @rowb1t oh I didnt know that. with politicians it can also be considered to be abuse of authority, or self hatred rather than societal repression

@georgia @sathariel @snacks @rowb1t i was literally living at a southern baptist church when the news broke that the executives were actively protecting the pastors who did that from the law

not getting involved in this fuckin thread so I'll say it here instead: All forms of sexual abuse are about power, not sex. It's always about authority and wielding power over someone else, . ESPECIALLY child sexual abuse.
it's why gamers in a xbox lobby threaten to rape you. logically, one might think "ayo sus??" but raping someone isn't having sex with them, it's abusing them—overpowering and humiliating them. not with their cock's but with their gun's ....? well you get what I mean

@georgia The average person is impulse driven, consistent self control at the desire level takes either an innate affinity for it or extreme dedication.
