  • and, now, from D.H. Lawerence

    the closing scene from “Women In Love”
    ****************************************

    “`Did you need Gerald?’ she asked one evening.

    `Yes,’ he said.

    `Aren’t I enough for you?’ she asked.

    `No,’ he said. `You are enough for me, as far as a woman is concerned. You are all women to me. But I wanted a man friend, as eternal as you and I are eternal.’

    `Why aren’t I enough?’ she said. `You are enough for me. I don’t want anybody else but you. Why isn’t it the same with you?’

    `Having you, I can live all my life without anybody else, any other sheer intimacy. But to make it complete, really happy, I wanted eternal union with a man too: another kind of love,’ he said.

    `I don’t believe it,’ she said. `It’s an obstinacy, a theory, a perversity.’

    `Well –‘ he said.

    `You can’t have two kinds of love. Why should you!’

    It seems as if I can’t,’ he said. `Yet I wanted it.’

    `You can’t have it, because it’s false, impossible,’ she said.

    `I don’t believe that,’ he answered.”

        I was actually looking for the scene with Birkin in the flea market. Couldn’t find it. The closing scene is better, probably.

  • Top? Bottom? I’d just be happy if more Gays understood playing in the shower with me.

  • what I wrote to my aunt when she asked what “LTR monogamy” meant

    LTR= Long Term Relationship
    vs: “hookup”
    it’s an Internet term that indicates people are looking for partners 
    not just sex

    I’m reading a book right now called “Sex At Dawn” examining the history of human sexuality

    one of the premises it’s examining is the common misconception that women are passive and have low libidos

    I think what I wrote could just as easily be turned at how women are Expected to be “pure” and not lusty
    and though many of them don’t feel that 
    they feel they should
    so learn to act like it
    which causes huge problems for them
    living against their own nature

    I think society is retarded, myself
    but… you know me

    I was going to say that it might not fuck up women as much because society expects them to suppress so much of themselves they are better at it

    but that stupid
    of course it hurts them

    and men are expected to surppress themselves
    in an “opposite” way: not supposed to show emotion…

    Society.
    Retarded.
    Seriously, yo.

    love ya!

  • I guess I tend to think that the tendency of women toward LTR monogamy is less connected with the the nature of sexual acts than with the impulses stemming from reproductive function. I would definitely accept that receptivity is connected with a greater psychic openness nurturing in immediate connections, but larger scale life organization doesn’t seem to follow this pattern, and this difference is more connected to gender itself. Of course there are a million exceptions, but over all, I tend to think that it really is about the difference between men and women.

    • yes… it is true
      the receiving of psychic spelled with the orgasm is very intense
      that has a big factor
      perhaps bigger than the fear
      I don’t agree with the reproductive impulse idea, though
      I’m reading a book right now that inspired this called ” Sex at Dawn”
      which I think you would love
      coz y’r so brainy and sexy
      check it out

  • nice

    i take it that you are reading sex at dawn… LOVE THE BOOK!
    but um…
    who said that bottoms were looking for monogamy?
    -i

    • Re: nice

      omniagamy!

      ok.
      my argument comes from the fact that many big older bottom guys that i know aren’t looking for rampant sex in the way the tops i know are
      a lot of guys that are geared as tops want to fuck a lot of different guys
      want to get their cocks sucked by anyone who’s around
      where as bottom guys tend to be more desirous of one guy they can call their own
      it’s not so much about sexual monogamy as it is about commitment
      another comment i got talked about the psychick receptivity of the bottom as well
      and that’s very true
      especially if you’re taking cum up your ass
      you’re not just afraid of disease from many men
      it’s just too much to take: a whole bunch of people’s emotions
      it’s overwhelming
      that’s why i don’t like bottoming all the time
      i mean
      i’ll such cock all the time
      but that’s not having random people pump their root chakra directly into my root chakra
      pumping it into my throat chakra allows me a lot more control over how i filter it and disperse it
      . . .

      Monogamy is about sexual energy and very much about seed
      let’s say there is two kinds of monogamy
      and the taking of someone’s seed is much more intense than playing with someone

      that’s the difference between the gay term of “playing” and “breeding” right?
      you’re not a cum pig, are you?
      and you’ve already told me about your emotional drive
      you love sex
      but often you would just rather do it with your husband
      you like the idea of it all over the place
      but you prefer the action of it in his realm

      and my initial writing was a bit flat and monodirectional
      i’m glad for the comments i’ve got coz it’s given me a better perspective

      thank you for recommending the book
      yes, i’m loving it
      and even though i forgot about it for a while (lost in the world of my iPhone)
      i was very grateful to find it today

      love ya!

      oh
      and this is the big problem with me living out here
      i love being in NYC coz at this hour of the night (11pm) i can call Leo or someone else in CA and chat away late into the night
      but at this hours in CA it’s 2am in NYC and you’re asleep
      THIS is the hour i’m free and would love to chat
      but everyone is sleeping

      so i’m typing…

      i’m going to sleep outside again tonight
      hope it’s not too cold
      the sky is so beautiful
      last night i saw three shooting stars
      but had jacked off a few times before getting out there
      so was really tired by the time i lay down and fell asleep pretty quick
      not tonight… NO!

      i’m off now

      HUGS
