Sex

 All evolution and biology wants of us in our sexual lives is to reproduce and survive as a species. But over time, human consciousness and human culture have put other motivations and restrictions on sexual behavior. In modern times sexual practice has been more open about these motivations and more confrontational toward these restrictions. We acknowledge that sex can be pleasure, brutality, communication, addiction, comfort, predatory, love and more.

Sex between individuals of the same gender or of different races or ethnicities is more openly practiced. This has forced religion, society and politics to respond with more laws and rules. This is the contemporary flux we find ourselves in, but with uneven resolution.
We get hung up on the way sex is practiced, but don’t consider how sexualized our society has become. We get hung up on the way sex is practiced but forget the message: Do no harm.
