it seems that any and almost everything deals or connects with sex. for instance, when u watch a commercial next time tell me that the person in the commercial aint beautiful and dressed all sexy and acts erotic. right? ok. next example... everytime i post a question on here i always have some pervert IM on yahoo and talk about sex and try to pick up on me. ok another thing, people always wanting to lose weight (yes i know i do too and it is for this reason and a couple others)...why? to feel more confident in the bed... or to feel more sexy in ur partner or the society's eyes. point proven? maybe maybe not. its just my opinion.

Hi dixi... you are right. Sex sells in advertising. The sexier the commercial, the more people watch.. men and women alike. Even women can appreciate another beautiful woman.
I can also understand why people would try to hook up with you. Looking at your photo, you are really pretty.
And yes, people on here are always talking about losing weight. Maybe they think they need to. Maybe they do, but why do they pick this forum to discuss their weight? Why not just go on a diet and get some exercise?
But do we really have to look sexy in the eyes of society in order to succeed? Its already been proven that men and women who are better groomed and look like models always get the best jobs.
Maybe society sees these people as winners. Maybe society sees us average people as losers and unless we all look like models, we will never succeed.
You make good points and I agree with you.

Yes I have, a long, long time ago. The reproductive instinct is the underpinning of human psychology. And look where it has gotten us. I would love to seed my DNA for future generations, but I'm afraid I'm the last of my line. I do not wish to add to the glut. Reserve a ticket for a campsite in the wilderness, that's what it has gotten to. Thanks a lot, breeders. The wrong people are having children. Why? Because they can. Any idiot can do it. Question on Y!A: "I'm 15 years old and pregnant, what should I do?" I no longer care.

Check out Lost in the Funhouse by John Barth. A great short story about how life is merely the moments between sex, waiting for sex.

Sex is the mystery of life.
We can approach this mystery with care or disregard it as ordinary. Sounds like you're experiencing sex from the ordinary and mundane. There is more. I do hope you will search for the true mystery behind it instead of accept it as a marketing ploy.

Kinda makes you wonder where society is headed. Wait, weren't the Romans obsessed with sex?? Public baths, homosexuality, promiscuity... Doesn't matter, they are still around, right?

your soo hawt when your posting questions. wanna go out?
lolol
Jus' kiddin'!! YOur right, though. There are two drives within each of us that rise waay above all others:
1. to stay alive
2. to reproduce
Our instincts and behaviors are always making sure we do our best to succeed in both. Which is why we're scared of heights, it drives people to cut their hair in certain ways, to drive the cars they want to drive, to wear clothes they think will attract others most effectivelly, and act certain ways in social situations.
And to think of it, its just not us, this applys to all living things.

Actually your wrong, everything is about DESIRE, yeah most people desire sex, but you'll find a few that want the power, money, or even respect....if not all the above!

Just the facts of life hon - we're here to breed, nothing more, nothing less. Enjoy it while you can (but not now, you "sound" a bit young)

Yes, the world is pretty much obsessed with it, but what are you going to do, so is all of Nature. Bugs, lizards, fish are all pretty obsessed with it too.
