Normal
I havent read all the post but this is my take on sexuality. First let me just say I have masturbated before but I dont let it control me. Maybe once or twice a year. Although I was raised Catholic, Catholics tradition teaches sex is only allowed in marriage and is only allowed for procreation purposes, in other words contraception and condoms are out of the question. It has been almost 7 yrs since the last time I was physically intimate with a female. It wasnt religion that made me abstain from sexual activity it was my little sister. Around this time I heard all these stories and all these guys who were trying to get with my sister it hurt at the time and it was hard for me to have relationship with females because I would always think of my sister. Well now she lives with her boyfriend and I have grown to accept that. They've been together for almost a year now, so I'm fairly impressed. I believe that sexual intimacy should be dependent on the degree of initmacy and the amount of time the two have been dating. It should be a reflection of the level of commitment the two has had for each other. Just dont become a slave to your sexuality. Dont let sexuality be the only thing that defines you.Its hard for Muslims to because they cant even date! Also, some legends state that everytime you masturbate it is like killing Ali 80s! Imagine that! If I was raised in that culture I could possibly relate but the truth of the matter is that its hard for me to grasp these restrictions on sexuality because most of the people Ive known have failed in their relationships or atleast have failed a few times with previous ones to come to the one they are at now. Its impossible to get it right at the first time. My cousin was dating this girl for 7 yrs and she got an annulment a year after they got married. Human beings are so complex and there are so many of us out their its impossible to tell who we should spend the rest of our lives with without some kind of divine intervention. this isnt to say that long term monogomous relationships can work or that they shouldnt be aimed for but it isnt as easy as some would like to believe.
