jambri said:HLTGuest. You make some fascinating statements. You are obviously highly articulate and make an a curiously cool-headed argument.
My understanding is this:
Castration would not kill your sex drive completely, you would still have psychosexual desires from years of conditioning. There is really no way to eliminate your sex drive completely. By all means, if your are over-sexed then I can understand why you might want to fix that. I am sure there are ways to reduce your sex drive so that it interferes less with your day to day thoughts, thereby allowing you to be more productive.
However, the only way to completely eliminate your sex drive (so that you NEVER think about sex, and are NEVER attracted sexually to anyone) ...would be to kill yourself. Of course then you would not be able to help others at all, so you've got a bit of a Catch 22 situation there.
Perhaps you know differently, but none of the world's greatest spiritual leaders were/are castrated as far as I am aware. As a matter of fact, the most inspiring characters from history are always those who overcome their personal obstacles by using the power of their minds.
If you went ahead with this, you would be a poor role model.
For some reason I get the impression you have an internal conflict between ideas of christianity and your own sexuality. Am I right?
Jambri, yes I have a great conflict between my religious background and my sexuality. I think you understand where I am coming from. Thanks to you and socks for the nice posts.
