A World of Sexuality

I’m generally somewhat reluctant to write about sex here on Medium. As best as I can tell from the stories the Medium algorithm recommends for me, most writing on sex is done by women and it’s not at all clear that a man’s perspective is regarded with much tolerance these days. Furthermore, while I adore sex and have always been more than usually active (in all senses of the term), I also feel that for the most part it’s a private matter between two or more consenting individuals rather than a fortunate series of events to be publicized for the sake of grabbing attention.

That said, I am here going to embark upon a summary of my own personal aged white male approach to sexuality and desire on the off-chance that my thoughts may be of interest to one or two people.

Names will of course be omitted to protect the far-from-innocent.

As I have no interest in what imaginary vengeful tribal deities are supposed to have said about human sexual activities, I’ve always approached things from the ground up. My moral framework is simple:

One does not coerce nor take advantage of others; all activities have to be consensual and mutually pleasurable in whatever ways this word may be defined based on individual preferences.

Health, both mental and physical, must be carefully protected.
