Hedonist is the proper name for the philosophy. Maybe I read too much philosophy because I was merely saying the proper term in the dichotomy between virtue ethics and pleasure ethics.
Maybe I should stick to talking sportsball.
- hluska 5y agoOr maybe just read more about hedonism? By your definition, you’re a hedonist as well because intellectual pleasure is still pleasure. Instead, I argue that that is a loaded term, we’re all individuals and we like what we like. It’s really nobody’s business and certainly nobody’s place to add a term (especially one with such negative pop connotations) to people who like what they like.
- colinmhayes 5y agoYour definition of hedonism leaves a lot to be desired. There's a decent argument that even stoics are hedonists using your definition since they enjoy being stoics.
