The Standards of Human Sexuality

As we have been told for many years from our upbringing, society, and history.

The list of standards of human sexuality:

1. what motivated prehuman males to "invest" in a particular female and her children.
2. male sexual jealousy and the double standard concerning male versus female sexual autonomy;
3. the oft-repeated "fact" that the timing of women's ovulation is "hidden";
4. the inexplicably compelling breasts of the human female;
5. her notorious deceptiveness and treachery, source of many country and blues classics;
6. and of course, the human male's renowned eagerness to screw anything with legs--an equally rich source of musical material.


Assumptions of our sexuality, men and women
-the relatively weak female libido
-male parental investment (MPI)
-sexual jealousy and paternity certainty
-extended receptivity and concealed (or cryptic) ovulation

Repression & Sex

"Repression needs no intelligence in the first place; any idiot can do it. In fact, only idiots do it...Nature intends you to know (sex) in as many ways as possible, because what you can know from one woman you cannot know from another woman...So I am for all the trouble, the anguish, the anxiety, the despair...These troubles are not because love has gone, these are because you are idiotic."

-New Age teacher Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh (The Rajneesh Bible)
