can you live for for your own pleasure without hurting feeling of others do you agree or not agree give exampl

Question

PLEASE GIVE EXAMPLE I AGREE WITH THIS STATEMENT

Answer 1

It is not possible to know what may or may not effect another individual. There are actions that are a given as to wether or not they are going to hurt someone. I have been a loner and very self-servant in my life. I have always had some concerns for others feelings, etc. etc. but when it comes right down to it, it is about doing what is right for you.

Answer 2

Living for your own pleasure is fine in theory, until you have to interact with others. At that point a choice must be made and usually some sort of exchange agreed upon. As an example: I want a red sports car. The salesman will agree to give me the car for a certain amount of money, this entails getting a job and conforming to another set of rules. Or I could take the car without paying for it. At that point society steps in and applies sanctions for violating it rules.

In theory you are not responsible for the feelings and actions of others. In practice other people's responses to our actions do have an impact on what we do. An enlightened person will examine his/her actions and the response of others and then make a conscious choice: "Is this action and response what I intended? Is it what is best for me and those with whom I must interact?" An unenlightened person reacts out of pure self interest and then wonders why their life is so hard?

The true question is then: "How can I be true to myself while living in a world full of others?"

Answer 3

first let me say i find this question interesting.

if u seek your own pleasure you will eventually hurt others.

This question was pondered upon by Epicurus, who was born in 341BC on the island of Samos. Epicureanism, a philosophy of refined and calculating pleasure-seeking, flourished for centuries, spawning colonies and followers throughout Europe, only to fade with the coming of Christianity.

Epicurus realised that (1) No pleasure is a bad thing in itself, but the things which produce certain pleasures entail disturbances many times greater than the pleasures themselves and (2) Of all the means which wisdom acquires to ensure happiness throughout the whole of life, by far the most important is friendship.

here is a very base example: you have a girlfriend and u "claim" u care for her but yet your "own pleasure-seeking" ways desire someone else, and u give into your desires.

can anything "good" come from that besides hurt and pain and regret?

Epicureanism had a rival - Stoicism, with the watch in Stoicism being "duty."

We may feel led to fulfil our "pleasures" but we have a "duty" to others .

Maybe that is why society is the way it is because we all want to fulfil our "pleasures" but no one wants to fulfil our "duty" to the world we are in.

Answer 4

You can to a certain degree, but to give some pleasure to others, you may have to compromise from time to time.

A good case in point is one of the Dear Abby topics today. A 50 year old woman didn't want to go to church with her 80 year old parents. She chose to do what SHE wanted to do and, oddly enough, didn't feel good about it. Now she could have bitten the bullet and spent a couple more hours in her parents company doing what they wanted to do, but....

Compromise is necessary to give everyone pleasure. You can live for your own pleasure 95% of the time, but you should try to consider others the other 5%.

Answer 5

If it gives you pleasure not to hurt the feelings of others, then you can live for your own pleasure. Such pleasure might be derived from the ego boosting real and imagined praise one gets from doing some good deed.

Answer 9

Of course you can. For example i might be able to make someone's life miserable and feel highly superior and confident, or i might save their life by pulling them away from a busy street, or becoming a doctor and literally saving someone's life, and it'll feel a hundred times more rewarding!
