Sexual liberation makes bad sex

Only one in four women and one in three men enjoy 100 per cent sexual satisfaction following a romp beneath the sheets.

Women’s biggest complaint is that men lack imagination and go through the same routine time and time again.

Men reckon most women are in too much of a rush to get things over and done with, are over-demanding and more interested in pleasing themselves.

Sexual liberation means we have many partners.

At that point, sex does become rote. There’s nothing sacred or artistic left in it.

Women are encouraged to be aggressive and seek sex for their own ends. So they become selfish; men follow.

And with all this rhetoric booming around us about how great sexual liberation is, people aren’t having fun and they’re creating third world breeding standards:

In the book, she asks herself whether she conceived ‘accidentally on purpose’. The sex in question, she insists, was purely for pleasure. But was there a secret agenda at work?

More than half of all conceptions are outside marriage, for a start. Couple that with the fact there has been a sharp increase in the number of children born to those in the 35-39 age group, and you get the picture.

Some of these women approach the task in a far more ruthless manner than Mary Pols did, purposefully going out and sleeping with men when they know they are at their most fertile. Many of the women involved deliberately avoid birth control and have no intention of letting their unwitting bedfellow know this.

So few relationships are perfect these days. We do not live in a society where everything is neat and tidy any more. Sometimes, desperate measures are called for if you want to get pregnant. And, if the woman has any sense, one hopes she will have chosen someone who is going to deal with the consequences in an adult way.

There’s a pop star I can think of, for example, who had several women in his harem and when one of them got pregnant, another of his groupies was outraged that she had lost the race. The pregnant one, meanwhile, became the wife.

What misery we’ve found in seeking ourselves as the center of life, and denying the obligation brought on by any larger need.

Of course, there’s a countermovement which gains momentum as modern society shamelessly and thoroughly debunks itself at every chance it is given:

The trend marks a reversal for women who put careers over families after Japan implemented equal labor rights 23 years ago. The number of marriages in the following decade slid 4.5 percent to an annual average of 746,000 compared with the decade before. Despite equal rights, women still make 43 percent less than men, giving them more reason to seek a partner during recessions.

“I know women before my generation worked so hard and pursued their careers so they could prove they’re just as good as men,” said Reiko Kubo, 25, who bought a good-luck charm at Tokyo Daijingu shrine. “They didn’t have to depend on men and that’s cool, but it’s not the path I want to follow.”

These young women have very sensibly found a way out from the oppressive thumb of dogma: style it as a non-necessary decision.

It’s a choice. A preference. An aesthetic vision, an emotion. But it’s not a binary choice, as passive-aggressive dogma tries to make itself out to be: progressive or regressive, feminist or chauvinist, multiculturalism or racist redneck trailer dweller, and so on.

Good work.
