On Pleasure Suppression

As long as pleasure is considered dirty, people are afraid of their own body. Thus self-rejection, self-denial, self-surpression leads to self-hatress and uncontrollable violence.

In particular it opens the door for idealized idols and leaders to seize power and execute authority in face of a diminished self. It also reduces the sexual intercourse to the pure coitus and the passive receiving person counts as being ruled, weak or even victimized. The other is necessarily the powerful perpetrator.

Hence the play becomes an exceptional game for lovers with still nobody really talking about it. Unsatisfactory is the status quo of most hetero- and homonormative relationships in particular for women. Men replace the missing pleasure with thoughts of domination, power (money) and violence. The violent mind, of a fundamentalist Christian, becomes reproduced without god. Patriarchy gets stabilized without Patriarch.

States become a necessity to rule the fairy tale of an naturally eval human, the original idea of enlightenment. The justification of the Leviathan according Hobbes.

Practicing your positive body sensation is hence an act of liberation❣️ In that sense, I wish you more self-time for this year.😊

With love,🥰
Stylo

Finished reading an article on quitting and it contained a sentence that nearly made me cry:

"I have wanted to write for the better part of two decades. I wrote in college, but my then-boyfriend was the writer in our dyad, and it didn’t seem fair to compete."

I figured this comic needed an update with a touch of sardonic humour

Show Me, O God, How to Hate | Believing Prayer believingprayer.com/how-to-hat

Show me, O God, how to hate
This wicked world and all its ways,
To hate this life wrapped up in things,
In thoughts that throw us far from you.

(One of three stanzas)
