Feel disgusted with society's views on sex

I'm going to keep this short because I have work early in the morning, but I completely agree. A hypersexualized culture that demeans women is extremely frustrating. But, you're doing a good thing by becoming part of the counterculture. That's how change happens. Slowly, not all at once.

If I may recommend a website, check out the Good Men Project. There's some good reads there.

Stay strong.

 

I agree with you. It's frickin' hard when all your friends talk about sex, and popular radio stations can't go 10 minutes without a playing a lewd sex song.

 

Congratulations, you're a healthy, sound individual. Unfortunately you don't live in a sound society but in a perverted, wicked and evil society and that's of course disappointingly. Try to convince your friends, if you hold anyone dearly and focus on your own journey. You can always be a better man, and from what I just read, you're already better than most of the vicious, wicked and perverted men in our society today.

Conserve your energy and get productive in other areas of life, and if you want to meet a girl with good values and who's not sharing western world's view on sex, you might have to educate one. But indeed, girls who despise this sick view on sex and relationships does exist in the western world too, but they're pretty rare.

 

i wish i could like this post bc i totally agree with you. i live in southeast asia, and while you western people have just started to realize the sickness of your society's views on sex, we here are just starting to absorb that sick view!!! but it's still in the minority of our people tho, and i really REALLY hope it would stay like that bc my society's initial views on sex is so noble.
we have always viewed sex as something to do only when you're married, and you shouldn't even tell anyone about anything that happened during sex with your spouse (except to your doctor or counselor i guess). generally, masturbation and porn is also frowned upon. BUT we objectify women. that is true. we still treat women like property, and that view like "whatever men do, it's the woman's fault" still exists. i mean being a woman is so hard here bc you get blamed for everything even when it's not your fault. in the west there are feminists who try to tell people that men and women are equals and they have succeded somehow. but here, feminists are viewed as defiant neoliberalists who don't respect traditional values. i think that not every traditional value should be protected. bad values must be gone, even if it's ancient.

im sorry for the rant ;-;

 

Yeah man preach it! The change starts here. Although there are some who are like us out there we are the minority. Unfortunately I don't know if there was ever really a place and time in history with a healthy view towards sex. Maybe pre WWI America. Maybe.

 

Well, whether we are in the majority or in the minority we just have work to do: develop proper vision and sharing and encouraging it in others. We are on a mission, it's not only our private fight. Sexuality is not private.

 

Don't make me laugh! A healthy view towards sex in America (at any time): not likely!

 

Well. More healthy then now. Not so Puritan and not hyper sexualized.
