I was enjoying this blog until I saw this: http://bubblinglikebrooks.blogspot.com.au/2012/07/oh-be-careful-little-eyes-what-you-see_25.html
And then I thought to myself, "BITCH, PLEASE."
I take issue with the whole "LUST IS A CARDINAL SIN" bullshit. I don't watch porn and I have no interest in it (or so I tell you... Nah, fo real) but where is the harm in watching/engaging in porn? Is a 14 year old, mid-puberty boy wrong in being curious in sex and jacking off to some good ol' nudity? Is a 45 year old, middle-aged man wrong in doing the same thing, whether frustrated with his own sex life, divorced, going through a mid-life crisis or just gettin' urges? I don't see anything wrong with these things.
What is wrong with watching others have sex (to which the blogger refers to explicitly in her post)? Who are you harming? Where is the harm? Where is the immorality? Are you raping, pillaging, sodomizing? No. You're watching people having sex. But you'd think from the above reaction by the blogger in question that watching sex is the same as gang-rape.
For further, slightly unrelated rambling on sex and related activities:
How can anyone say that sex before marriage (having intercourse or masturbating or watching porn) is wrong but then, the millisecond after you get married, it's suddenly alright? Apparently, sex after marriage is suddenly beautiful and a culmination of love and family values. I don't see the logic in that. I don't think there's anything wrong with wanting to wait until marriage to have sex. In some ways, it is a good thing. Abstinence is key... The key to not... is to not (five points for Griffindor for dat reference!). But what works for one person doesn't work for everyone. I don't think it's fair to call one person's life choices immoral when it is not harming anyone.
This preachy bullshit just gets on my nerves.
