Freedom of Speech
2/13/2006 5:04 pm Last Read: |
(copied from blogger) The aftermath of the September 11th bombings have really had an adverse effect on people's right and freedom to express their opinions without fear of reprisal of some sort. I'm not saying that there has been a complete hauling back of our freedoms and liberty. Not at all. I estimate it at about 20% or so, maybe only 15% but nontheless it has happened. This holds true for discussion on sexuality among other things. This blog like my other blogs are merely my opinions and thoughts on my own sexuality, which is my own treasure and possession. I feel, in a democratic society, I am entitled to express my views on my own sexuality. But, check out the news. Check out for example, Sky news. It seems to me, sky news reports on two things. One is the bloody war in Iraq. More deaths, more killings, more sacrifice, more of "them" versus "us". Yet, I can only imagine that this nonsense only serves to reinforce people's convictions that the best solution for the Iraqi problem is that there be no Iraqi problem, in other words, get the troops out of there. The second news items on sky news is child sex abuse. Recently, there was this man, who had sexual relations with a 16 year, pleading on the news (his face not shown of course) that he was lonely, out-of-work, under a great deal of stress, and, well, it just happened, that this wonderful 16 year old was nearby to give him some comfort. Well, it doesn't surprise me that when one views sex blogs or sexually oriented web content of any kind, you often see the words "adult" entertainment. Now, I know why. Yet, up to last week, I didn't know this at all. It seems the reason, people involved in uploading such sexually oriented content of whatever kind use these words in order to protect themselves from their weakest front, namely, that instead of exploring sexuality, they are in fact attacking or undermining the vulnerable i.e. under 18 year olds. Well, as I wrote before, and I am not going to be asserting this again and again, I can assure you, this is my blog and I will write about my own sexuality. If you want to call it pornographic. Then, go ahead. But, for me, it's in fact scientific. And therapeutic. Anyway, I am not going to be put off my the pontifications of religious depots (we have our share on the island of Ireland unfortunately). I'm not going to kid myself any longer. Paul Carr |
