Karene

Introduction / Summary (2018): Hello and welcome to our Sexuality pages. While this is not a pornographic site, it is provocative - founded upon what people search on the Internet (which is very interesting!). We then relate this to our biological and cultural evolution.
Sex is obviously important to people - and if you want to improve your sexual relationships then knowing the truth about our human evolution is the best foundation. By opening our minds to a greater diversity of behaviors, this knowledge will help you creatively cultivate healthy pleasurable moral attitudes and sexy smutty relationships (free from religious guilt & cultural myths).
Support an open honest discussion on the truth of our sexual evolution and behaviour. If you support sex positive, moral, informed sexual behaviour please share this knowledge. (These pages have a diverse collection of fascinating information relating to our human sexual evolution so people will appreciate it - see our 'nice letters' page!).
Sincerely, Karene.

"It is not enough to conquer; one must learn to seduce." (Voltaire) - "Desire is the essence of a man." (Spinoza)

Scarleteen: Information & Statistics on Teenage Sexuality

A fun and informative teenage sexuality website (written more for teen girls with a slight feminist edge).
From their website: 'We think that the best model for lifelong sexual education is providing information which educates in ALL aspects of sexuality, including birth control, safe sex and sexually transmitted diseases, masturbation and self-pleasuring, anatomy, diverse sexual orientation and identification, gender politics, sexual and romantic relationship and communication tools, and care and compassion in sexual technique and practice. ... One cannot make a decision from a position of informed consent without actually being informed.

The statistics may surprise you. More than half of American teens DO abstain from intercourse until age 17, and that a quarter of them at 20 still have not had heterosexual intercourse. These same studies show that informative sex education has not increased sexual activity, pregnancy or the number of sexual partners, and has in fact, wildly succeeded in that, 'Teenagers who start having intercourse following a sexuality education program are more likely to use contraception than those who have not participated in a program. (SIECUS).'

'Virginity Pledges' substitute High Risk Behavior for Intercourse

A study published in the April issue of the Journal of Adolescent Health, shows that teenagers who take 'virginity pledges' engage in vaginal intercourse later than teens who have not committed to remain abstinent until marriage, but are more likely to engage in oral or anal sex than nonpledging virgin teens and less likely to use condoms once they become sexually active.

Rape Information, Protection & Prevention

A collection of articles on rape, different sexual situations, consent, sexual assault trials, restraining orders, violence (and women's acceptance of it), protection strategies for schools and students, self defence and empowerment, alcohol and the date rape drug Rohypnol, resources for survivors, risk factors, rights, personal advice & support.

From the website: 'Rape is defined as having sex with someone without their consent. And it's a felony. The existence of a current or prior social or sexual relationship does not automatically translate to consent. A person who is incapacitated can not give consent. And without consent, any sexual act is rape.'

Internet Child Pornography Prevention & Education

Educators with Internet access in their rooms and buildings must make it a priority to supervise children on the Internet. Some schools have employed the use of filtering programs. Having a teacher nearby and actively interested in what the students are pursuing on the Internet can effectively deter inappropriate access. Teachers have an important responsibility to report Internet child pornography, as it is included in the area of child abuse.

Quotes from Philosopher Peter Vardy on Sex Education

The Puzzle of Sex is a wonderful book by the philosopher, Peter Vardy. He explores theological reflections about sex (Hebrew Scriptures and New Testament) and suggests that the time has come for a reapprisal of traditional views on sexual ethics. Vardy also values the mystery and depth of human sexuality.
The following quotes from Peter Vardy express the importance of educating your children to the truth and beauty about sex (of both body and mind) in a loving environment.

The example of a loving, committed and sexually relaxed mother and father will be the best way of communicating subjective knowledge (beauty, love) of sexuality. (Vardy, 1997)(Painting by Pissaro).In the last twenty years there has been a considerable improvement in sex education in schools. Most young people today have been provided with books, have been shown films and have been given the chance to discuss all aspects of the biology of sex. They are, by about 13 or 14, familiar with the human reproductive system, periods, erections, ‘wet dreams’, contraception and the like. The detailed knowledge provided to them is at a level to which their parents would never have been exposed. Also, there is a frankness and openness which avoids at least some of the embarrassment of talking about sex and the great deal of information means that teenage pregnancies are rare in spite of the high rate of sexual activity by many young people.
However, this increased information is often given out of context - it is entirely factual and value free and, at best (or rather at worst), it strips away from sexuality any idea of mystery. The ecstatic meeting of two people in acts of tender, caring, committed ‘lovemaking’ is reduced to a physical process little different from the animals in the farmyard. One can ‘let light in on magic’ and, by so doing, destroy everything that is precious and worthwhile, destroy the real meaning of what is taking place.
I am reminded of the story of an old, clever but mentally ill man who used to pick flowers and then pluck off every part, naming them as he went. He could identify the anther, stamen, petal, sepal, etc., with great precision- but had no feeling for the unity of the flower, no comprehension of its beauty or its deeper meaning in the overall scheme of things. He analysed away all that was important and became obsessed with trivia. All too often, the same happens in the sexual field. (Vardy, The Puzzle of Sex, 1997. p137)

The example of a loving, committed and sexually relaxed mother and father will be the best way of communicating this subjective knowledge. By contrast, a child who has been sexually abused by a parent or who sees parents who are manipulative or who ‘use’ each other will find it very difficult to reach an understanding of the true meaning of human sexuality. (Vardy. 1997. p140)

T.S. Elliot says that one can ‘have the experience and miss the meaning’. More factual information about sex does not contribute to any greater degree of understanding of the meaning involved - ‘information’ and ‘understanding’ inhabit different dimensions. (Vardy, 1997)




 


 


Analyse any human emotion, no matter how far it may be removed from the sphere of sex, and you are sure to discover somewhere the primal impulse, to which life owes its perpetuation.Analyse any human emotion, no matter how far it may be removed from the sphere of sex, and you are sure to discover somewhere the primal impulse, to which life owes its perpetuation. ... The primitive stages can always be re-established; the primitive mind is, in the fullest meaning of the word, imperishable. ... Mans most disagreeable habits and idiosyncrasies, his deceit, his cowardice, his lack of reverence, are engendered by his incomplete adjustment to a complicated civilisation. It is the result of the conflict between our instincts and our culture. (Sigmund Freud)
