Tonight I was sitting in front of the tube watching a rendition of pride and prejudice on channel thirteen, when one of my suitemates ruth walks in. She needs help with her homework and at this point I know she is going to beg so I decided to help her as did my other suitemate and her boyfriend. So the question was "has the perception of sex changed over time?" The funny thing is, here I am watching Pride and Prejudice which shuns sexuality yet embraces it because Austen was a liberated woman, but she never fully discussed sex in her stories, I wish she had though it would make her stories a lot more interesting. Now when you put twenty-something people in a room and give them a really good question a huge debate happens and I love when that happens. My suitemate Sohad believed that sex has changed. She is a true romantic who believes that sex should be given freely between two people who care a lot about each other and who want to spend the rest of their lives together. Blah. I'm not saying that what she is saying is not right, but honestly love doesnt exist anymore? or does it? Now I believe for the most part that love is there, but most people (young) do not necessarily think about love. Now-a-days, its about losing it and completely letting yourself go without thinking about the long term affects. It has change. Sex use to be a weapon sort of a liberation. It was a message that love can be used in all sorts of ways. Love is anything and anyone. However its not the same now. Sex is not a weapon but more like a taser. It hits you once, you feel good and you do it more and more. It's a drug. I'm not saying it's bad. Sex is great, but too much of something can always have disastrous affect. That is why there is disease and broken hearts.
