What's Your Take?

 

Morning

Faithful Reader Ian would like us to have a discussion. He sent these two music AI-created music videos (which is a thing, I guess?)



and then poses the question:

"These cowboy songs perhaps hold the promise of replacing Dad jokes and enabling adult male talk among men via humour. 

It's even worse with women feeling they are the only ones deserving choice over sex and not understanding that every time a woman chooses not to have sex, they are also choosing for men, who get no independent choice of their own. There's a queue of men behind every woman waiting for them to say yes, but not the reverse, because men's sexual expression is currently tied to womens choice. That isn't to say we advocate for men overriding women's choice over sex, but men need to be able to make their own choice over sexual expression and have that fulfllled like every woman on this planet potentially can, if they only said yes, and this means breaking the monopoly women have over sex by making men aware of other possibilities that gay men have understood for ages because of need."






Well, I think women are becoming more sexually active, but they do get to decide --- like everyone should --- who they will engage with.



The old adage, 'Necessity is the mother of invention,' rings true, though. If men want sexual release or fulfillment, there are options, and having a male FWB has become more acceptable within mainstream society. Bisexuality has been accepted as "normal." Which, I think, may be why the evangelicals have been pushing back so intently.







What's your take, Readers?

All I know is all the guys I work with said your so lucky to be gay!! I cant really say to much more having never dealt with women or had sex with any.

If a man defines "sex" as strictly as "intercourse with a women", then yeah, his options will be extremely limited. Even so, I get the impression that this guy feels resentment when women won't sleep with him. As if he's entitled to it. I find that disturbing. He needs to talk to a professional because that kind of thinking usually does not end well.

I do not think this is a matter of being a man or a woman, and who's got power over deciding this or that.
It all comes down to the sexual appeal two people feel towards each other, whatever their respective gender, and leading them to a consensual intercourse. Consensual being the number one condition.
It may take some game of seduction and the rules attached in order to get to the point. That's what most species do (have you ever witnessed a peacock trying to seduce a female? :-)
If the way one tries to seduce another is not up to their expectation it's a sign they're not made to 'mate'.
And if to try and seduce someone only aims at fucking/get fucked to release the tension well... there are back alleys/bushes/bars to to that without the hassle of useless preliminaries.
Back to the matter: many historians have written about the strong power some women had over prominent men over the centuries - Cleopatra's over Caesar is not a a legend.
But a woman's refusal or agreement to have sex is not to be seen as a way to manipulate her man. A woman, as any individual, is driven by all the things she has to care and worry about, which is usually more than a man does and, contrary to men who tend to compartmentalize and box up their thought when their balls awake, most women need to feel their concerns are secure with the partner they are engaging with. Hence their need to be listened to, and that is definitely not a step a man wants to skip or fail.
PS: I've listened to those two AI songs. They reminded me, in a much different way, of what a work-in-progress-AI did a fews years ago trying to put out what would be a Beatles' song. To the point, but charmless.
I do not believe in the religious concept of soul, except when it comes to Art.

Even with Gays, both have a choice and can say no at times (but not often).

Sexuality is far more complex than people realize. If it’s consensual what the hell is the problem ?! The evangelicals and their ilk are anti-sex either because they’re miserable and not getting any, have immature sex hang ups or are sex fiends themselves and are on a guilt trip.
