As constructive criticism, if you would have invested more time and energy in using clear and distinct terminology in this discussion and less in beefing with Unicorn, perhaps things would have ran more smoothly.

Absolutely. And also think that texting has evolved into an etiquette where laconism and straight to the point are highly appreciated.

How old are you? Could this be a generational gap?

@musclestuduws, I saw your rolling eyes reaction to my post, and I want to apologize. That response was pity. Sometimes I enjoy being a bitch, I recently promised that I would try harder to be more constructive and less confrontative, and that post is just evidence of how hard it is for me. Indeed, it is a low point and I apologize. Instead of writing that bitchy response, I should have clarified the post that you understood as a personal attack. It was not intended as such. I use "you" as the impersonal you, not as targeting you as an individual. Instead, I should I have used "we", because what I meant is that we all feel great about ourselves when we feel like we are in control, even when it is delusional. Once again, my apologies. I could have deleted/edited my misstep, but I do not mind documenting my flaws.

Let's suggest a different approach to "choice". You can choose to try to understand human sexuality. Sciences mostly do that. In the process, they impoverish the potencial of human sexuality through generalizations and categorizations (like homo, hetero, or bisexuality). I am not saying that you cannot explain human sexuality, but that you can choose a different approach. Instead of explaining and analyzing and regulating human sexuality, you can choose exploring and describing the very diverse and always evolving field of sexual behaviors and preferences. The first think to do is moving away from sexual "identities", towards sexual behaviors. (I am not inventing nothing here, talking about reinventing the wheel) I think it is a much more fruitful approach, at least it has worked great for me. I am much more happier and open to try new things now that I was until 10 years ago, when I was still trying to explain and analyze.

Do you not think there is a biological reward for homosexual conducts? Do you think reproduction is the only biological reward? Do you not think homosexual acts trigger biochemical processes that provide a "biological reward"?

Good point. 🤣

I think it much more than that, but let's accept it is. Why only in animals? Fully aware? I did not know animals are "aware" of the purpose of their existence or their actions. I understand that is the old understanding. Last research shows that homosexual behaviors are present in all the animal kingdom and are not exceptional at all. Nothing that happens in nature is out of nature's norm.

I am glad I made you happy. I see you are easy to please.

Naw. I think is just delusional. Of course, it makes you feel great about yourself to think that you are making the options.

The very issue is that there is no choice. Confronting nature vs nurture does not reflect the human experience, where nature and nurture live together and interact.

Do you not think all generations did the same? I mean, pretending to invent something they were just reinventing? Like the sexual revolution from the 60s? the post modernism from the 80s? This conversation has much of another pattern. Older generations complaining about the youngins. A classic.

I miss the 70s

Because it is a civil conversation? 😇

Thank you everyone, this thread is very informative. I wish I had the guts to inject myself, that is one of the reasons I never tried ilegal drugs using syringes.

Yep, American prudish attitudes towards sex trigger laughs all over the Western world.

THAT is a good example sex positive mindset.

It seems you have not seen Avatar's sequel. WATERISHHHHHH

You are welcome, Mr. sex positive!

Do you know whether this provider also worked for the porn industry?

Sure, Mr. sex positive. And let me be clear, because I bet your "sex positive" prejudices are clouding your sex positive mindset. I do not say that you are not SP because you oppose a prostitute to teach. I say it because your anti sex prejudices lead you to assume that this woman is not capable even when trained educators are bringing her to their schools. Just my opinion.

And you think that your judgement is better than the professional educators that are hiring this sex worker. Again, your opinion is quite mainstream. You are not sex positive.

And you sex positiveness leads you to assume that a prostitute cannot be? Even when schools are hiring her? Look, I understand you do not want a whore in front of a classroom. Just do not call yourself sex positive.
