I agree. Instead of "shoulding" one *should* just do it!

Icelander is always dookying up my threads. I've just gotten used to it. I wait until Matlock comes on, then my threads are bumped safely away from his attention.

I for one definitely do not have a clue... doubt I will ever be a conservative though

Looks like an erection. And what kind of "Services" lie ahead?
I think ejaculation and the preceding processes are fabulous gifts. It's a gift to be able to feel that nice, you know? Feeling nice is a good way to be a better contributor in general.
If you don't buy into the age-old religious lust-draining-positive-lifeforce idea, its power over you will diminish and so likely will many effects you notice.

This thread could have developed into something interesting.
Is man instinctively attracted to the sight of a beautiful woman, or is it more of a social convention?
Lets argue intelligently and maturely.
-------------------- So we finish the eighteenth and he's gonna stiff me. And I say, "Hey, Lama, hey, how about a little something, you know, for the effort, you know." And he says, "Oh, uh, there won't be any money, but when you die, on your deathbed, you will receive total consciousness." So I got that goin' for me, which is nice.

I've been going through some pretty solid philosophical uncertainty of late, but never once have I questioned the validity of my "nice tits ---> I want my dick on that" response. Personally, I'm pretty damn sure that ain't social conditioning.

that's because that specific response you speak of is not philosophical in nature. It's pure instinct, and, it's about the only instinct that civilization has not stamped out of us. Instincts do not require thought, or premeditative subjectificaiton.

Raising one's perspective from the instinctual realm of self-preservation, preservation of the species and power - the first 3 chakra motivations in Hindu Yoga psychology/ The Astral Triangle in Qabalism - has always been the aim of those who wish to transcend the mammalian condition. One can choose to be a human mammal or to be a human being. Beinghood includes but expands beyond the merely instinctual domain. Sexuality can be in the service of the egoic mind (which is mostly about the motivations above), or it can be enjoined to a compassion-love which aims at a union that is 'higher' than physical 'congress,' mutual psychophysical pleasure or dominance-submission social conquest.
Do I often see women who instantly arouse me? Hell yes, I live in Miami next to Aventura, Florida! Do thoughts of all manner of erotic practices leap up in mind! Without a doubt! Are there opportunities or invitations? Yes, even from former students who contact me when they are 'of age' (very flattering). However - I would have to lie, sneak, perpetrate, obscure the evidence, and lie some more. Moreover, my Lady is preternaturally intuitive to the point of 'guessing' details correctly. If I do step out, it is with the foreknowledge that our relationship will be injured or destroyed if she finds out. A liason with an 18+ year old is just stupid dick-thinking. I hate it when I'm stupid, but I hate it even more when I intentionally hurt someone. So I have almost always sacrificed my lust-kama to Compassion-Rahamim-Karuna. If Carmen Electra threw herself on me for changing her flat tire, I'm pretty sure that I would push her away, but not very strongly and not for very long. On the other hand, I don't visit strip clubs w/o my Lady (if I go at all and it's been years) and flaunt $100 bills. As the saying goes, 'I do not seek after enlightnment, but neither do I dwell where enlightenment is not likely to be found.'
