Sex, which, along with religion, is the new religion, is sacrosanct territory.

Especially on the West Coast, I discovered when I moved here from Texas. There’s a strong tendency toward this belief in liberal people everywhere, but moreso out here, and one of the many reasons I can’t wait to get the hell out of dodge.

Well I think that women are often pressured into giving blowjobs by the society around them, by the false perception that everyones doing it, that they have to do it to get a boyfriend and that they have to have a boyfriend to be grown up. This is unfortunate and should be fought against but it is not the specific act thats the problem it’s the manipulation and coercion of young girls and even young boys that can have life damaging effects that is the problem. Its our double standard macho culture(here just as much as in Mexico or any other country) and our societies schizophrenic (hope I spelled that right) mixture of taboo and obsession with sexuality, specifically of teenagers, the sexuality of middle aged and older adults is seen as gross and avoided as much as possible. Sex is a part of life and sex has become about more than procreation, sorry pope. I think thats liberating for both genders. In a healthy sexual relationship both partners experiment with their bodies and do things to pleasure one another. If the blowjob is done as a way for a man to be lazy and be served up pleasure by a woman it becomes exploitative but it doesn’t have to be. Certainly the portrayal of blowjobs in porn is exploitative and puts bad images and ideas in the heads of both men and women, but porn executives should not control or ruin the beautiful thing that is sex. Because of that I have finally completely kicked my porn habit, something I should have done a long time ago. Anyway thats how I see it
