Sex is a private matter. Until it’s graphic, portrayed in TV and movies, in pornography, used to sell us everything we are conditioned to want. And then it becomes global and cultural. Culture, for it purposes good and bad, acts to both reflect and to manage sexual appetites and sexual expression.
This is done by titillation, by hovering around the juicy edges, by moralizing and glamourizing. What would happen if we dropped all the pretenses and fantasies and addressed our human sexuality in a clear-headed, direct and honest way in sex education, in media, in love and relationships?
