no estoy mucho de acuerdo porque personalmente me preocupa mucho la destruccion del amazonas o el problema de la capa de ozono ambos son problemas muy grandes y el sexo(personalmente) no es un problema, se supone que deberia ser el regalo mas hermoso que Dios nos dio, porque tiene que ver mucho con el amor,pero lastimosamente mucha gente piensa de manera equivocada sobre el sexo.

no i dont think anything is wrong with sex … i feel things are wrong with us … sex is a pure manifestation of a need for silence …….we feel the intense pleasure in that orgasm of few seconds so strongly …thta we become slaves of it … sometimes as a giver sometimes as a taker ….. and it is so because we let our nothingness and our silence guide us in an act of love making but if only we could let our nothingness and silence be with us in every walk of life then i am sure that every karma that we do would have orgasm not for mere seconds but for eternity and then there would be no place for words like sex and prostitution in any of our consciousness …

Dearest Paulo and friends

Having sex, the actual act is emphesized so much because it is so pleasurable. An orgasm itself creates such a realise of energy that you feel a calmness deep inside of you- a moment of peace and maybe even God. Also in that moment of climax, you feel completely connected to the person you with- whether they are a stranger or aomeone you’ve known for years. Somehow or another that experience brings you closer togehter, not on a physical or mental level, but something far deeper, that only our souls know of in that moment. I’ve been thinking of this for a few days and i don’t feel that sex is wrong or human beings for that matter. I feel that people often use this as an escape from their lives so that they are able to experience some sort of pleasure. You never know what someone is going through, and it is so often that they turn to activies like this just to feel good, even it is for a moment. We must also remember that the way the world is today, so many things are sexually orientated. It just tempts people to do things.
Making love to someone on the other hand is something completely different. It is something that affects us on a mental, physical, emotional and spiritual level for it is an expression of who we are. its not about those 11 minutes in making love, its the hours of build up, the climax and the cuddling after. When you are with the person you love, its never 11 minutes, its everything, from the moment you smiled and said hello, til the moment you smiled and fell of sleep. When you make love with someone- it is the height of your relationship and it something that should not be rushed into.

Thank you for being
Lots of love

Eu acho que ela escolheu viver a profissão e descartou o amor, a união e até mesmo o próprio sexo e o prazer.
O sexo é troca de energia, seja de que forma for o prazer que o casal encontre. Mas tem que haver afinidade, amor, cumplicidade porque é isso que gera a satisfação.
A venda do sexo por sexo, assim descartável, acho que não traz momentos de satisfação.
Cada qual tem sua escolha e ela optou por isso.

beijos,
Mari Raphael.

love & lust - they are so related yet so separate, when lust is love is not,when love is lust is not. had lust not been, heights of love may not have been. love is giving, lust is taking. today I came across the following couplet about lust and love by Rumi - thought would share with fellow wols, even though it may be just obliquely related here
Bu just: confess
In love is ample righteousness;
The fault lies in
Thyself, that thou art prone to sin.

If thou dost claim
For human lust Love’s holy name,
Then know, and prove
The way is far from lust to Love.

Ènsâf bedeh ke èshq nikôkâr ást,
Zân-ást khelal ke tab’ bad kerdâr ást.

Tô shahvat-e khish râ laqab èshq nahai,
Áz shahvat tâ èshq rah besyâr ást.

It’s 3 o’clock in the morning and Something or Someone?? got me thinking about this special moments like sex, love.
Long time ago when I was a kid I heard this song by Demmis Roussos- greek singer: “forever and ever”- in this song there is this passage -
“TAKE ME FAR BEYOND IMAGINATION” which I love and
who wouldn’t??
I think we love to experience these extraordinary moments even if they are as simple as a smile, or tears or helping somebody or even snow outside your window. We feel uplifted, enchanted.
I have this feeling that these moments, these special, incredible, fantastic, not from this world moments making us feel closer to GOD
and we could never have enough of them.
They’re like dreams but we have to wake up -
sooner or later.
So maybe there’s nothing wrong with us, maybe we just constantly looking, waiting for Him/Her to touch us, to love us.

I don’t think the problem is with sex. The problem is with people’s attitude towards sex.

Sex is meant for one general purpose and that’s procreation. It’s suppose to be enjoyable between two people who care about and are committed to each other. Best enjoyed when two people can be vulnerable to one another in a safe and loving relationship.

Because the act is pleasurable to us it is easy for the media to use it as a selling tool. Think about it, when you want convince someone to do anything you have to show them how they will benefit, what they will get out of it, etc.

For example, a beautiful woman/man speaking sensually about a deodorant spray on a television commercial, this triggers your brain to think, “Wow that’s nice… Now I’m aroused, I really like the way he/she sounds, I wonder what the deodorant is like!” Even if your repulsed or embarassed by the sexual inuendo you will still remember the commercial, because the commercial made you react.

The problem isn’t with sex, its with how careless we have become in our view of it.
