Sounds like the guys I usually dated. And frankly vanilla sex gets old FAST.SimuLord said:Every girl I've ever been with has cried out the safeword LONG before I've reached my own theoretical limit (which frankly scares me), so I lost the right to judge ANYONE for their sexual morality.
Only psycopaths don't have morality but they can still reason to an approximate, just like the example you gave.Caliostro said:Wrong. If we all agreed that rape and murder are bad things, rapists and murderers wouldn't exist. So, apparently, at least some people think it's ok.
Also rape and murder aren't a matter of "morality", they're a matter of freedom. One man's freedom ends where another man's freedom begins. So a person's freedom to rape and murder kinda ends when it collides with another person's freedom of not being raped and murdered.
Morality is when people say "I dislike this! EVERYONE should dislike this! And if you don't dislike this, you're wrong!". Some would call that ethnocentrism.
Nobody has morality. Morality isn't real. It's a concept we invented so we could put a social stranglehold on other people's lives. Morality exists no more than souls, or good and evil.Boris Goodenough said:Only psycopaths don't have morality but they can still reason to an approximate, just like the example you gave.
Morality is not universal, it varies but there is a lot of common ground and upon that we build our communities and socities.
It is primarily biological but nuture also more than sets its finger print. It is argued that psycopaths are more or less purely caused by nature and sociopaths are caused by nuture.
So you feel the need to rape and murder since you feel a social constrain by other people's "morality"?Caliostro said:Nobody has morality. Morality isn't real.

First, if everyone involved is ok with it, why should we stop them? Second, why only 2?[/quote]Irony said:Sure we should have a line. But it should only turn the most depraved and fucked up acts off-limits. Everything else (and that would be alot) would be fine so long as its two consenting people.
Actually, I don't mind if consenting people want to kill eachother. I'm for euthanasia and stuff you see.HG131 said:That, and non-lethal. Consensual and non-lethal = five by five.Jonluw said:The only limitation should be that it is consentual. So long as it's consentual, it's all good.
Irony said:Well I've got nothing against more than 2 people going at it. Have all the orgies you want, the more the merrier. I just said "two consenting people" because its a common phrase I use for stuff like this. And when I say the most depraved and fucked up acts I generally mean non-consentual stuff like rape and pedophilia. I hesitate to put necrophilia only because while yes only one of them is consenting, the other isn't alive. Its just a dead body. Its like masterbating with a fleshlight. A fleshlight that used to be alive.HG131 said:First, if everyone involved is ok with it, why should we stop them? Second, why only 2?Irony said:Sure we should have a line.

You're confusing morals and values with morality.Boris Goodenough said:So you feel the need to rape and murder since you feel a social constrain by other people's "morality"?Caliostro said:Nobody has morality.

If not then it is not as "natural"(I'll use the word common instead) as you say it is, and you share this personal value with most people, and that is what we call morality.
Morality is the common ground of personal views of many people.
Because IT DOES.Boris Goodenough said:And if rape is so natural, why does it not happen all the time with animals? We share common morality traits with many animals, because it is best for the species in most cases.
Yeah, doctors might be a good idea.HG131 said:Ok, fair point. But still, that should be done with a doctor present, not during sex.Jonluw said:Actually, I don't mind if consenting people want to kill eachother.

Unless they want to harm other people. Then that's bad. All parties involved need to consent.
Before I answer your question, I would like to point out that so many forms of sex not considered "vanilla" have been around since the beginning of man (and were quite popular in many cultures, such as bestiality, necrophilia, gay/lesbian, orgies, sadism, etc.) and the vanilla type was a result of Judo-Christian beliefs influencing Europe, and therefore, the western world, and really the sexual revolution that took place was simply embracing what western culture repressed and called unacceptable. I don't believe you can draw a line because as the culture will change, so will their views of sex ( i don't think this gives anyone the right to have sex with anyone, like pedophilia or anything).Gentile said:There was a time when the only real and acceptable form of sex would be your typical vanilla sex between a married man and woman that you see (if you're into voyeurism) in any king sized bed across the land.
