Sex

Hello My Friends

(I appologise in advance for what you are about to read)

So earlier on, today... or rather yesterday, I posted on facebook asking for topics for my blog... I got a fair few... however, as happens to so many of my posts.... 44 comments later, we had digressed somewhat.

 

Still, here's the first of the requested Topics.

 

Sex

(as requested by Beth Leitch)

(And yes... that is a blatant double entendre)

 

It's a pretty open topic to be honest.

I'm not entirely sure where to begin... Maybe it should be the begining, yes that sounds like a good place to start.

 

In the begining, Sex was meerly for the purpose of procreation (making babies for those of you without a thesaurus). For most species, this is still the singular purpose, but for the lucky few, we also physicaly enjoy the act. It is still being studied as to which (if any) animals actually orgasm (yes there are scientists who hook monkeys up to ECG's as they masturbate... the monkeys... not the scientists). However it is known that some certainly enjoy the act, dolphins and some monkeys for example.

For humans, of course the original function was simple procreation but as the saying goes, "Prostitution is the Oldest Proffession". Historical evidence does back this up somewhat, so we know that sex has been for more than just continuation of the species for at least a few thousand years. The drive for this is Orgasm.

Prior to the mid 20th century, the Male orgasm was viewed as the most important thing when part of coitus, in fact it was widely believed that women couldn't orgasm and that they wouldn't enjoy sex, although I can't blame them for not enjoying it when your partner was a rather large man with poor hygene. However in the mid 20th Century, there was a sexual revolution, it's commonly known as the 1960's. During that time people started to care more about the womans needs ie, the so far elusive female orgasm. 

 

I feel like I've digressed somewhat... Although to digress you have to have a topic first... I never had a real topic so I'm just going to continue splurging... Really, this piece of text right here is just to break up the piece, so it's just laziness, I appologise for that, but it's late...

 

So now I'm going to talk about modern sexuality  (yes I'm sorry that I'm jumping around a bit)

Today, there are an almost unending number of sexual fetishes. I would like to ask the question, what defines a fetish? Pop culture seems to frown on 'fetishes' but when examined, a fetish is nearly anything that is not straight 'Vanilla' (ie, Heterosexual Missionary Position) sex. When people hear the word Fetish, they immediately think of BDSM (Bondage and Sadomasichism) or licking peoples toes, now these themselves (BDSM especially) have varying degrees of 'kinkieness' but just about everyone has a fetish. Whether it be Hitler's rumoured Corprophila (A person who likes to be pooed on) or a girl who likes to lay back and revel in sexual pleasure without taking direct action themselves (ie being Submissive) it's all the same thing when it comes down to it. People enjoy sex, and we all need different things to truely enjoy the act.

 

Many believe (and I share this belief) that a healthy sex life is needed for a healthy long term relationship. 

 

To be honest... I have no idea where I'm going with this... I have so many ideas... but it's late... 

I may actually revisit this topic when it's not 03:25... and possibly with two friends inputs, I know just the two who'd be interested.

 

So anywho... Yeah... sorry for the rambling... I'll be better next week :P

 

Much Love My Friends
