RE: My Close Encounter With a Dangerous Cult (that you've probably never heard of)

We will politely differ on these matters, as I think the sex industry is responsible for many of society’s ills and is a wolf dressed in sheep’s clothing. As the Buddhist’s suggest: sex outside of a loving, spiritual relationship is like licking honey off a sharp blade.

Here’s an essay I devoted to this sad state of affairs: The Pornification of Popular Culture: https://steemit.com/sex/@yahialababidi/pornification-of-popular-culture-20171114t235519306z

Peace 🙏🏼

Sort:  

the sex industry had been here since man met woman ( sorry, I think that is a naive position, and history would agree with me. )

Technology has changed the sex industry a lot - in a bad way, I think.
It is a symptom, not a cause.

To put blame of societies ills at the feet of the sex industry is disingenuous.

it could be argued that religion ( an argument I don't believe), has caused more ills in society than anything. repression instead of expression, never works out well.

sex outside of a loving, spiritual relationship is like licking honey off a sharp blade.

That would mean half of western society have bleeding tongues! lol

I am a Buddhist for over 40 years - It doesn't make it true...
