"bad touch" _ bloodhound gang |

Yes, I have sex on the brain again, but surprisingly, it's not something perverted or remotely sexual. I've got to thinking more about the whole, sex without love issue, and the whole societal enforced stigmata that women aren't able to have casual sex without the fear of being branded a whore.
I've had plenty of sexual experiences in my lifetime; some were good, some were bad, some were mind-blowing and some I wish that I could just take a wire brush and scrub my brain clean. It was just that bad. I've had sex safely in the confines of a relationship, where I was deeply in love and committed to the person, and I've had sex outside of it, where my whole mentality was, "Okay, I want you, you want me, but I don't want anything to do with you. Once we're done, I don't want you to pretend you care, because I don't. Don't kiss me, don't touch me, I don't want to cuddle, just fuck me, okay? Okay." What's my point? Sex is just sex, why must there be so many ties and complications about it? Why can't it just be about the enjoyment and pleasure of two people?
I realize I may be rather cold and harsh, but why is it expected that when women have sex, we're automatically "in love" with the partner? Men can just write it off as "just another lay", and not think twice about it. Just because we're bumping pelvises doesn't make us feel newly enlightened about the standing of where "we" now stand. Sex fell apart when people starting thinking about the importance of it, and touting it as something that needed to be done only when the two people care about each other. Well, yeah, how about when we care about "getting off"? Does that count?
I'm lucky enough to realize that love and sex are not the same thing. Sure, if we're fortunate enough, there's some emotion and level of caring shared by the partners, but most of the time, males are out for one thing, their own pleasure. Why is that women can't do the same? I realize I sound pretty jaded, but think about this, if a man were to go on this little tirade, would you be thinking the same thing, that they were jaded? It just hit me one day, there is just not enough time to deal with all the bullshit that men can [and will] say to get into a woman's panties. And then women have to do the whole little song and dance, pretend that sex is something that don't want, and make the man wait a certain amount of dates, because that's what the "rules" say. Women afraid if they let the act happen too early in the relationship, that, 1.) they'll lose the respect of their partner, 2.) labeled a whore, and/or 3.) they'll get dumped. Lovely. Well, screw all that. Better to know early on exactly what you're getting into rather than waste both your time on something that has no future and will most likely lead to a lot of pain. Have sex right off the bat, what better way to get to know a person when you're all naked?
Damnit, why aren't we able to do whatever please? Because of society; it dictates our behavior in the world. Women, we're supposed to be docile and sweet; men, they're all grizzly and "me Tarzan, you Jane". Sex evolved from something beautiful and natural to something that's considered dirty and needed to be hidden from the eyes of the world, to something that's less shameful, but only for the men. Women are still expected to behave all proper and ladylike. Why do we go through the whole act of a relationship? What if in the end, after all that time was spent, that the sex was just that bad? What then? The relationship starts deteriorating; both partners start looking elsewhere. And you're stuck right back in the beginning; nothing's changed except that you're older and now you have even less time to enjoy yourself.
I think entirely way too much about trivial things. And I've probably made myself out to be a whore of some sort. Yeah, well if you think that, then you need to open your mind up just a tad bit. I should be pretentious and say something along the lines of I am enlightened., but no, I'm okay. I'm just ranting and raving about something I've been thinking about for a little while. ((smiles)) I'll probably get quite a few IMs pertaining to this entry. Oh well. <33 toodles
