    Is it something to be ashamed of?

    The action or the biological characteristic?

    I suppose no to both as long as the first one is between two consenting individuals.

    Nope, why would naturally arising bodily sensations be something to cause shame?

    Here's one area I think most other animal species are one step ahead of us: they don't attach guilt to sex. I've always wondered why humans started to do this...I mean, even to the point they feel so guilty about it, they kill themselves over it sometimes.

    So no, I think sex should be enjoyed, and elevated as one of the highest goods: fun, creative, relaxing, great exercise, releases stress, and leaves you all smiling and happy :slight_smile:

    ^ Usually people feel shame or guilt because they are part of religion that views sex as sinful.

    No it's not shameful at all, religion has pretty much attached that stigma to sex, I personally love sex, my parents think it's evil, sex is very natural and nothing to be ashamed about.

    It's not just religion that creates shame and stigma surrounding sex. It's around us every day, in just about every part of our lives.

    We're told that nudity is wrong and dirty, that sexual behavior is taboo. Media and big business constantly use sex to sell things... and to shame us into behaving certain ways.

    But there's nothing inherently wrong with celebrating our sexual selves, our bodies, or our connection with other people. There have to be some reasonable limits so as not to offend those whose sensibilities and values might be different than ours... so, for example, people should not be masturbating or having sex in the streets... but the more we take discussion out of the shadows and talk openly and frankly, and learn to love and appreciate and feel good about our bodies, and about our sexual expression, the better and more emotionally we feel overall.

    I'd also like to add that not all religions view sex as sinful. Wicca, for one, is very sex-positive.

    Athough a lot of religions think sex should only be for procreation. Let's face it, the majority of people have sex because it feels good and it's fun, from what I hear:slight_smile:

    It shouldn't be, but media and society and religion have made it so.

    Yes. Be ashamed, very ashamed!

    Women need to shut the fuck up and let their men decide what to do, with their bodies, because men know women better:

    Let a woman make her own choices? When a man is around to do so for her?
    Get out of here, you radical communists!




    "What about non-heterosexuality?"
    *Cracks whip!*
    That is the MOST shameful! Like any sane, moral, wholesome woman could deny a penis!


    "What about bisexual or gay men? They also like pen--"
    *Throws rock!*
    Men do not submit to men, damn it, for it is the MOST shameful!


    "Wait a minute, you just said non-heterosexuality was the MO--"
    *Shoots!*
    If I'm insecure and power hungry, and I can only appease my ego by imposing guilt and shame onto the masses, then I will! Give the masses power over their own bodies and feelings?

    Bwuahahahahahahaha~!









    But seriously, no, you shouldn't feel ashamed. If you want to do it, if you love to do it, and you have somebody you want or love to do it, you're fine. It's your body, choose how you express it.

    I'd assume at this point in time, these threads wouldn't really exist, especially considering that you've clearly been around the forums and seen what the community is like :slight_smile:

    It's definitely not something to be ashamed about, and it amazes me that some people still think it is nowadays

    Nope, religion has nothing to do with it, in my case. I just think that people take away the beauty of what sex can really be when they go around treating it so causally. The fact that our community treats sex (and many times, relationships) so casually is very discouraging for those in the community who want something more meaningful. Physical pleaure is not what life is about, but it sure is being treated that way.

    As for people using animals to defend sex, we are not animals. Simple as that.

    That's my 20¢, atleast.

    I don't think it's anything to be ashamed of, as long as it's healthy and safe, and is comfortable for both/all involved. I feel like media and oftentimes society treat sex as something rather shameful, and seem to view it as something that is taboo; there is usually an air around it that unconsciously makes some feel guilty or ashamed about enjoying, or even being open about and talking about sex.

    Like I said, as long as it's healthy and safe, and reasonable/respectful of boundaries- it's nothing to be ashamed of. Chip put it very well and I have to agree; I feel like having more open and honest discussions about sex and our bodies will render a lot of people better off emotionally and physically, and in many fronts.

    I LOVE sex. I'll leave it at that because that's all I'm allowed to say.
