Hi, I found this site by a coincidence, and is not sure what this forum is all about, could you please tell me? Is Brandon Boyd a hippie by the way?
Welcome Turion! Hope you have fun here, and like leprechaun said, if you want to know what it's about, just look around.
Welcome Turion. Like the others said, have a look around. Maybe you've had a chance to by now. I'm still pretty new as well and still finding out what's going on in these parts. Do you think Brandon Boyd's a hippie? Is that why you're asking? I really would like your honest opinion on this.
I have read more about hippies, and what can I say? I'm really shocked. Does you people really think it's okay to have sex before marriage?? Sex before marriage is abselutely wrong, and that's nothing who should be even planned to do. If you guys really say sex before marriage is okay, then you are wrong. Are you really saying humans is sexual animals?? That was a saying invented by Sigmund Freud, and he was a insane bastard by the way. And, Freud was, (not to my surprise), wrong. If you really think people have sexual thoughts all the time, read here: http://www.snopes.com/science/stats/thinksex.htm See, what did I say? Freud was a insane bastard and he was wrong. So go for it, boycott Freud's theories. You wouldn't really say Freud was right, do you? Sorry for the rant, but I'm by no means ashamed to tell you my opinions, and that sex before marriage is wrong, because it is. I think I really don't like hippies! Oh well, I guess I'm not welcome here, but you know what? I don't really care because I'm right. I might get some angy replies, but I don't mind. You know, I'm right, okay?
You aren't the only one that feels that sex before marriage is wrong, there are some here that have the same view. If you don't agree with it, then don't do it. Live and let live.
hey, i totally agree with you about not haveing sex before marriage, but i also agree that its a personal choice, not that its just wrong. it is my personal choice not to have sex before marriage, but if someone does it is their personal choice to do so. whatever is right for them. i would like to hear your reasons for it though, so feel free to email me or whatever if you want to share. i am not ashamed that i believe sex before marriage is wrong for me, and i totally respect you for saying your thoughts. i admire it. the world could use more of you. anyway those are some of my thoughts
I thought I would get some angry replies, but that didn't happen. I think sex before marriage is morally wrong, especially if the same person is getting married with a different person later. When 2 people marry, they better have to be clean (not have had sex). Also, sex before marriage is against many religions, and I am, as you might have guessed; religious. My religious morality is very important to me, and to avoid sex before marriage is one of them. What scares me on this forum, is that people say they walk naked at home, etc. If my neighbour did that, I would most likely be shocked. All things that has to do with sex, is a no-no and should be avoided. And I mean it.
And what scares me is that you feel you have the authority to throw your opinion at us as if ti were fact. nudity and sexuality are two different subjects. If I'm naked in my own house by myself, how is that wrong? Do you wear clothes into the bath or shower? why not? because it's inconvenient. When I get out of the shower, I see absolutely no reason why I should put clothing on. I'm in a state that is comfortable to me and I don't see how I'm going against any religion. I'm not showing myself to anyone else. Where's the problem? And I don't tend to wear clothes to bed either. sometimes I'll wear undies, but not always. My question to you is, why do you care so much about what others do in the privacy of their own home? In another thread you talk about being offended if someone came to your door naked. Do you actually believe that if I like to be naked ALONE IN MY OWN HOME that I'd be so disrespectful as to shove it in your face? You're a very black and white kinda guy, aren't you? Well, my whole existence is in the grey area. Take a peek. you'd be suprised at what you might learn if you're willing to see things from a different point of view. As for no sex before marriage, I don't agree with you, but I respect yoru religious beliefs in that manner. But to say that all things that have to do with sex should be avoided, that's impossible. If I see an attractive person and I pitch a tent, my body is just doing what comes natural. And it's SEXUAL! When I kiss my significant other, it's SEXUAL! We are sexual beings, whether you want to admit it or not. We have the ability to override our feelings if we choose to do so, but that doesn't mean that we're not sexual in nature. Life is not one extreme or another. There is such a thing as moderation. Believe it or not, a lot of hippies understand the concept of moderation and wouldn't go so far as to deliberately insult you by their actions. Some do, but some don't. Some smoke a little weed, some take an LSD trip, some stay completely sober. Some like to have multiple sexual partners, some like to stay monogamous. Welcome to the grey area.
Well put, monosphere... I would also like to add... We are born naked. God (if you believe that God is the creator) created us naked. If God makes you naked, how can it be wrong? Babies are universally understood to be pure and innocent. They love to be naked. It isn't until we get older that we learn shame and choose to cover our bodies. And I really think that much of that is taught to us by our ashamed parents, not by our natural selves. So, I don't think that citing religion, is a good excuse for covering your body. If God wanted us to be ashamed, then we would be born with clothes, or at the very least, the desire to wear them. As it is, we are not. And if you do not wish to be shocked by the nakedness of your neighbor, then don't look into their windows or over their fences...
i respect your religion, but i agree with monosphere that it is just your opinion not fact. and what people do in the privacy of their own home is their own business, personally i really dont care whether you walk around naked or not. doesnt affect me. if its part of your religion that anything to do with sex is a no-no, hey if it works for you, but for me while i believe that i myself want to wait for marriage to have intercourse, i dont rule out other sexual activities.
I don't know who he is but have you heard of a person named Wavey Gravy? Or are you familiar with the term 'Counter Culture'? I hope this helps. Barely a week since I joined and this thread is growing pretty fast. Welcome aboard the cybernautic commune.
Well, welcome 2 the forums & enjoy yourself here. Aulthough, like I wonder about some others, if u "think u really don't like hippies" then why r u here? Anyway, I think what others do is their own buisness so long as it harms none. What's right for u isn't right for all & while it is fine 2 state your opinion, It is not 2 state it as fact or try 2 impose it on others. I think u should have sex whith whoever u wish (so long as they aren't in a serous relationship) whenever it's right for u. I live my life according 2 what's right for me & if any1 else doesn't like it, 2 bad for them. While I may not change my mind, I will listen 2 what they have 2 say even if I don't agree. Ok, enough of my ranting & have funBtw...not sure if Brandon's a hippy, but he seems like he is 2 me & he's a sexy man!
