A honest question, only tangentially on-topic. Our parents all needed to have sex so we got conceived. So i would expect it to be a socially normalized thing, aka "people do it all the time".
But yet we live in a society where any form of open sexuality is shunned. If you want to play along you sort of have to pretend these things don't exist. Why is that?
- gumballindie 3y agoSame reason we pretend taking dumps and passing gas dont exist. Likely so we differentiate ourselves from primates that do everything out in the open.
- loa_in_ 3y agoNot everyone does. Arguably, hardly anyone does.
- AdrianB1 3y agoI don't think this is the object of the discussion. I don't mind people that have sex (that means almost everyone I know), but I dislike people that do sex in public, with minors, with animals, with cadavers etc. For me, porn is similar with sex in public and this can be annoying, distracting or disliked by other people.
- rysertio 3y ago> porn is similar with sex in public How so? No one is forcing you to watch porn. Apart from pornographic ads, porn is very different from someone having sex in public.
- Ferret7446 3y agoYour parents didn't need to record that sex and broadcast it publicly, possibly for profit. People do it all the time privately (at least historically) because it was considered an intimate activity, not a banned activity (again, historically and generally speaking).
