Let's talk about sex

Sex is one of the most powerful emotions in the world that has lead to many wars and much given beauty to this world. It has allowed generation upon generation to survive from a mere quick burst of emotional ecstasy. But isn’t sex much more than just the combination of some super pelvic thrust combo. Is it not much more? Or has it just become a tool that we use to obtain 3 seconds of mental freedom (for women maybe about 2 minutes or so, depends on the mood LOL ☺ ). After a quick burst, we come back to reality; question the act we just did. Measuring our own self worth against our performance. It is also the reason why so many men get married at an early age to relieve their right hand of a tedious duty.

Now I sat with my 16 year old cousin, looking straight into his eyes as he asked “How do you deal with masturbation?” My jaw dropped, I had forgotten that in 3rd world countries sex was word that would cause a man to become eunuchs. In a muslim country such as Pakistan, sexual discussion is left for individuals to discover amongst the western pornographic material and bollywood. “Ah” I think to myself. Good’ol bollywood, how well did bollywood teach me about sex? I thought that by kissing a girl or chasing her around, I could get her pregnant. Oh how I was wrong on that as I learned years later in my health education class, while slipping a condom on my fingers. Anyways, I sat still frozen, peering into the curious eyes of my kid-cousin, as a wise monk teaching him about sex. I soon began to realize his somewhat distorted-fixated view on what sex is and how it is done. Just as he enjoyed the pleasures of masturbation, I showed him the numerous diseases that follow the ever so beautiful pleasure. He took a 5 min break to go throw up in the washroom ☺.

Sex has changed the social ways of a 3rd world country. It is a tool, I feel, that is used to keep individuals (mainly women) at a lower level. This leaves a bitter taste in my mouth because the younger generation will be the future that will not be able to understand the human needs and growth. It is natural for humans to question bodily changes but to suppress those questions just instigates problems the elders fuse such as rape, prostitution etc… Men who are unable to cope with their sexual needs, turn towards treating women as meat and then turn towards prostitution. I feel sad about how such a beautiful thing is turned into a monstrous tool of gender control. This discussion in itself is huge to cover just by itself and I guess I should digress it into something more focused later on. Until then be safe kids and wear a condom.
