A subject I would like to write about is sexuality (and relationships) in the context of the Great Awakening, but it comes too close to crossing a line in terms of privacy of myself and others. A lot of stories and lessons. Deep down I know that sex is meant to be a stable sacred union, and my own life doesn’t model that. The spiritual effects of sleeping around are problematic, but the denouncement of those who are blessed with simple straight lives is uncaring and unhelpful. My relationships with women have been difficult, and men dangerous. We are not all the same. There are struggles and compromises. Being given a body that plays beautiful pleasure harmonies when rubbed against another implies making use of that gift; neglecting the offer strikes me as a rejection of something wonderful. You only need to mention homosexuality and the ultra-conservatives judge and rant; but equally try challenging amoral promiscuity and gender identity, and you get vicious secular religiosity.
