disclaimer for the terminology: fucking=sex for the pure physical release.
How can you have much regard for someone if you don't know them very well, or at all?
well. some of us tend to respect all people until shown that they are not deserving of it. i think this is a prerequisite for such relations.
How can you be responsible regarding your own sexual health if you don't know your partner well enough to have any idea if you can trust that they will also be responsible?
you could start by bringing your own barrier methods and using backups. never use anyone else's condoms is the rule i learned. especially as a woman.
But casual sex lacks deep emotional commitment between the participants, and that is what many people often say is a benefit of sex, and a reason to engage in it, at least some of the time.
i would think that expending your "just fucking" with a casual partner would allow you more "quality, lovemaking" with your life partner. but then i don't really get the distinction between casual and committed sex. if it's purely physical, what's the issue? it's like masturbating with someone else. why does it have to be different? whay does it have to be hoodoo emotional?
Because it implies that you find emotional involvement inconvenient or undesireable.
there are more important things in life than becoming wrapped emotionally around another person.
So, since sex can and does promote emotional bonding and can and does have a large impact on many people's lives, we should let kids know that there is an emotional aspect to sex.
yes, but creating the false requirement for fairytale emotional sex is just like creating a fairytale about marriage. it creates false expectations. explain to them all the possible outcomes of sex. part of the problem with the way girls are raised in this country is that sex has to be loving and special and amazing while boys are raised to spread their seed. we have a serious flaw in communication and relation. tell both that emotional sex is common and possible and that it is also ok to just fuck. teach people to respect each other inherently and you resolve your problem. you also resolve hate and rasism and sexism and genocide. amazing.
Since when are a "long-term emotional bond with a single person" and "purely casual sex with lots of different partners with zero emotional committment" the only two possibilities?
it isn't. but they are two possible choices. also, sex between friends not meant to create a different relationship and also casual sex just one time with one person and a bunch of other possibilities. they don't have to participate, but by giving them the choice, we empower them to be responsible instead of just rebelling.
