Normalization of Promiscuity is Depressing

That is hilarious, because it's so true!

 

Spot on, I'd say.

 

I reread your statement and the stuff about rape, STDs and pregnancy does make sense. However, assuming that sex between a man and a woman within a married relatioship is heterosexist. And a product of conservative religion. People who are LGBTQI+ can have a loving, monogamous marriage too. And it's unfortunate that even in the 21st century people in the US still hold the bigoted idea that their marriage is less sacred than a heterosexual couple's. And gay marriage becoming legal in 2015 in the US was one of the biggest signs of progress in our country at the legislative level.

 

Non judgementalism is good for you, too. And it's right in your worldview. But what's right for you may not be right for someone else.

 

Abortion is actually a good thing depending on the circumstances. And i think if people spent more time worrying about themselves and less time worrying about what other people are doing, a lot more people would be less miserable. I can only control myself. So as long as someone isn't doing anything to infringe upon my constitutional rights, or harming others whether it's through violence, or shame culture, I could give two cares about what people do. Because it doesn't affect me unless I choose to let it bother me. And I'd rather spend my time productively through working on my own spiritual advancement and personal development than looking down my nose at what some 20 year old young woman is doing by showing her body on the internet. And Patriarchal ideals doesn't just mean men. Women can and do further reinforce genderist and heternormative, ideals when it comes to so many things in society.

 

A universal religion is only slightly more likely to emerge than is a universal language.The late twentieth century has seen a global resurgence of religions around the world. That resurgence has involved the intensification of religious consciousness and the rise of fundamentalist movements. It has thus reinforced the differences among religions.
Religion are the fundamental bedrock of civilizations and millennia of human history have shown that it is not a “small difference” that can be "talked out" but possibly the most profound difference that can exist between people.
You look at most conflicts post cold war they all tend to be inter-ethnic at the micro level and inter-religious at the macro level. Even if such a religion were to emerge it would only be indigenized and serve further conflict since people can't seem to live without a sharp divide of "us" and "them" which religion provide handily.

 

Talk about hard work is relative yes? just in the US you have 70% of jobs being services many of which are either are superfluous, serve to make the customer good about himself or can easily be replaced with automation.
And most people on OF do not make thousands/weeks, they make less than 300/month. What you are focusing on are the most successful of the lot, if what they were doing was easy the average monthly earning would certainly be higher no?
What they do is somewhat like a broker, a youtuber or maybe an influencer; it involve a degree of luck but also careful planning, advertising and interaction with your fan base, you need to be business savvy to make it a full time gig.
Especially among those that make thousands/weeks OF is rarely the only part of their earnings, usually they only use those to invest in further business ventures.

For those that make less than 300/week it cannot conceivably be a full time job, just something to get some extra cash instead of releasing the video for free.

 

You need "fun" during your life here on earth because of polluted thinking.

 

From a practical standpoint, we have developed the technology to mitigate the more obvious consequences of sexual promiscuity. Condoms protect against STDs, antibiotics can cure bacterial STDs, modern antivirals can put even deadly viral infections like HIV into a dormant state, modern birth control and plan B pills stop unwanted pregnancies, etc. The negative physical / material consequences are all covered.

The psychological consequences? The sociological consequences? We don't know what they are and we don't care. We will learn those the hard way.

 

Yeah, I know. And when people crank the dopamine all day long, they get warped.
