Sex

[Drakmeire]

I believe sex is just an act and should never be mistaken for love. I almost got punched by one girl back in high school since she believed that sex=love and I told her that her boyfriend did not respect her in the slightest.
(this was not an uncalled for thing to say either, her boyfriend was supposed to watch her kitten while she went on vacation but he sold it to some guy on the street for $20 and just gave her the money. I think they were together about for about 2 months after that too. she was very stupid)

Sex is a natural act. It's just as toxic as eating or sleeping, and shouldn't be repressed. Sex addiction is dangerous and a completely different page.

 

[Treeinthewoods]

Awww! I was hoping for a dirtier thread. Oh well...

I believe sex is good, it should be experienced by everybody on earth. If you don't experience it you are totally missing out!

General Studies? Actually doing work in it?! HERECY!

Err well I'm British, and I lost my virginity at 14. No regrets whatsoever.
My parents never encouraged [well, obviously, but you know what I mean], but they didn't mind that I did.
I am now 16 and have had sex with 2 different people, the 2nd being 'non-relationship'. But whatever, I have a liberal attitude towards it as long as you know that you wont regret it afterwards, you know what I mean?

So I guess I learned my 'beliefs' of sex from experience, if that answers your question? Like the guy above me kinda said, it's better to build up your own views and values.

Lol General Studies, basicly it's just a pub quiz, no wait it's less than that.

Well, for most of my life my knowledge of sex came from episodes of Friends, and I was quite convinced that Sex consisted of wrestling underneath bedsheets for an appropriate amount of time, erupting from the duvet, panting, saying a one-liner, then returning to the wrestling.

Apparently it's more than that though. Which I learned the embarrassing way

 

[The Unworthy Gentleman]

Sex has always been something that has been taught by society and how people are judged by their sexual activities. Now we have a very diverse community of people who are either slutty, prude or somewhere in between. If people are judged for having sex too young then the people around them are more likely to be similarly judgemental and wary of sex until society accepts it as okay. Those who grow up in areas where people simply do not care about whether someone has had sex or not are likely to have sex before society says they are ready to, which leads to them being seen as slutty by the people who are somewhere in between.

There are more than just sluts, prudes and the indifferent however. I've just given you a brief summary of where I reckon most people get their sexual attitudes.

I really don't care about sex too much, I prefer the challenge of getting the girl and then the accomplishment of actually doing it. That said, I am a virgin.

 

[qwewee]

personally I don't really care all that much about sex other than to make babies. masterbation suits my sexual urges all on its own.

 

[Bocaj2000]

For men, it's a physical thing. For women it's an emotional thing... for the most part.

 

[Mr.White]

It is overrated.

It does not cement a relationship.

Most of what i know about it, was from sex ed class in year 6 all the way to my 2nd year in college (they kept badgering us to get checked for chlamydia).

Non religious, in case it is of any relevancy.

And selling your body is bad.

 

[Continuity]

For men, it's a physical thing. For women it's an emotional thing... for the most part.

bah, I think not..

OT: in a word overrated. Its one of those things in life that you only really want when you don't have it, but once you do have it (on tap i.e. a steady GF) you're not that bothered. Just mother nature fucking with us.

 

[Jake the Snake]

I don't think it deserves the Stigma it has. It's as meaningful as you want to make it. It's a physical extension of emotion. It can be deep, meaningful and passionate, or it can be cold, meaningless and purely physical. It's neither one or the other.

 

[Monkfish Acc.]

It's pretty uninteresting to me.
Thinking about it makes it seem kind of gross and awkward, what with all secretions and positioning and everything. The grotesque smells of each participant's genitals and BO from all that dang sweat all over the place. Doesn't seem that fun.

Which is why I am confounded by this culteral fucking obsession with it. All anyone cares about is who is getting it with whom and how and why the fuck is this even slightly important.

Anyway, I guess I learned most of it from TV and other kids at school. Any gaps in my knowledge were filled in by multiple molestations.

 

[RanD00M]

Sex is like money. Loads of it about, but I never seem to get any.

"Sex is like socks to me. There are plenty to go around, but I can't seem to find any."
Oh BlackAdder.

OT: Heterosexual sex is putting ones penis into a womans vagina. Sex between two men is putting ones penis inside the bum hole of another man. Sex between two women, is... Like... I have no idea how it's done, but I assume that is involves a lot of use of the fingers and tongue.

Of course all the sex that I'm talking about is just the basic. And I'm not going to go into the emotional side of it all.

That all being said, I've never had sex.

 

[AndyFromMonday]

Such hipocrisy in movies and tv shows nowadays.

Insane violence is great for your kids but OH NO BOOBIES WILL RUIN your 12 year old who probably already watched porn.

It's funny to me because back in 2007's New Years Eve they kept the TV show "mild" with dances, happiness and all that good bullshit. Then, all of the sudden at 1 o clock a fucking stripper comes out of the set and starts dancing like there's no tomorrow.

OT: I have a liberal attitude about sex. That's all there is to it to be honest. I also don't believe in age restrictions. You're ready when you're ready. Saying that at a certain age everything will change and you'll suddenly be sexually matured is BS. In fact, there's absolutely no logic behind restricting sex until a certain age.

 

[badgersprite]

I honestly don't know what you mean by 'beliefs on sex'. I believe sex exists. It's not, like, a fantasy.

Anyway, as for where I learned about it, I have multiple sources. My parents have always been pretty upfront with me about sex, maybe because they're both doctors and they don't get embarrassed about stuff like that. I could always ask them things if I was curious, and they would answer me in an age-appropriate way. In my country, we also have sex education in schools, so I learned about it there, too, although that was mostly things like anatomy, what STDs are, "how to say no", and forms of contraception, but, being homosexual, an awful lot of what they taught me felt more than a little irrelevant.

I actually got a lot of answers about the mechanics of sex from the internet more than any other source, just by reading about it, but then I guess that's not unusual anymore. It helped me demystify sex. Having those dry answers helped make sex boring in my teenage mind, so I wasn't all that interested in doing stupid things or making mistakes.

I'm kind of old-fashioned in my relationships. I've only been with one person sexually, although I've dated other people since then. I've learned that I don't like pushing things into a sexual place too fast. I mean, if all I wanted was sex, then, theoretically, I could sleep around with anyone, and have it be completely unemotional, but that's not what I'm interested in. If I genuinely want to be with someone, then I'm going to wait until that trust is there, and until I know it's not a purely physical thing.

That's just me, though. I get that everyone has different physical and emotional needs. Right now, I'm not even interested in relationships at all. Too busy with other stuff to have that on my mind.

 

[Insanum]

Personally, I think there is too much emphasis on sex nowadays, i know sex sells, but sometimes it gets a bit much.

 

[Macgyvercas]

I can't comment on sex itself (virgin FTW?), but I can say that I am very appathetic on who does what with whom. I will say that mindless and casual sex is wrong, in my opinion. I believe that sex should have some meaning for the partners involved.

 

[jameskillalot]

I know it has something to do with making babies...

 

[Zenn3k]

My Beliefs on sex - Its a normal part of life, there is no real extra meaning behind it unless you personally assign it extra meaning. Our brains are wired to want sex, and want a lot of sex naturally, anyone who doesn't want sex either developed differently (these things happen) or was taught that sex is something bad, dirty, or otherwise. Its also possible that someone has had a really bad experience (rape, or just really horrible sex) which turned them off to it completely to the point where they are not aroused by the idea of sex. The whole "waiting" and "saving yourself" stuff is, IMO, rather stupid.

I look at it this way, if you wait and wait for the right person to come along, thats missed time you could have spent improving your skills when it comes to sex and finding out what turns you on, etc. So you wait, then they finally come along and the sex is pretty "meh", because you barely know what you're doing and unsure what feels good and what doesn't. In my opinion its better to practice so that when the "right person" comes along you know what you like, want, and can deliver and the sexual bond between your perfect match can mature in a far more comfortable atmosphere. Waiting does not benefit you.

Where did I learn sex from - Mostly porn. I understood the basic mechanics of sex by about 9 and found a porno to witness how the act is actually performed around 11 or 12 (15 minutes of uncensored Spice channel, "free sample", ahh those were the days). Didn't actually get to HAVE sex until I was 18, and I sucked at it, lol...I'm much better at it now, but 10 years experience will do that.
