Negative aspects of ”Casual Sex”
There are various negative aspects of casual sex. This negative aspects have social and physical consequences. Consequently “casual sex” is of great relevance to the church and their view of celibacy.
Social Negative Effects
People who practice casual sex can fall into a state where they will develop a constant need of sex.
We could call this an addiction, so a person would focus on satisfying this “need” instead on other things. This deviates the addict person from more important things concerning his own development or in the way of becoming a valuable asset of society
“There are social conflicts over sex. For example you are protective of your sister though when you go and have sex with someone, you are with someone else’s sister. Jealous people will fight with potential competitors and so on” (Ian Clark)
Vicious Circle
It has already been stated that sex can cause addiction, looking at it in a deeper way, people could fall in a vicious circle, not to mention others can take advantage of this vicious circle.
Suppose a person is addicted to sex, obviously he is going to try to have sex at all costs. Lots of scenarios can occur, like paying for it, which in almst all the cases carries the big risk of getting sick and spreading diseases to other people and so on.
An example of people getting advantage of this vicious circle. This can occur in a lot of places. One person can manipulate the addict through sex to make the addict do things that the addict might not want to do or that are a degrataion to the addict or even worse to others. Blackmail is very common in these cases. For example in a couple either the man or the women can manipulate the other one so the addicted person will do things against their will.
Sex addiction can have many serious consequences in the workplace-
In a company for example a boss can blackmail a subordinate to have sex over a promotion or the fear of losing his job.
Or it can be even the opposite, a subordinate an manipulate a boss having sex then demanding promotions, special favors and so on. It can even get to the case of blackmailing him with sexual harassment or even if the boss is married, a lot of problems could be involved. All over an addiction to sex.

I think that the people who have this addiction are like very mad, well.. i think that in special this addiction is very curious, disgusting, i dont know, i think that the addict is very crazy to have it. because like paying for sex, or can manage others with this addiction is a very serious case. I think that is the low self-esteem that enters here, also the people taking advantage is the addiction, these kind of people with this addiction need help not denigrate. At the end the person is sick so i think is cruel take advantage.
ReplyDeleteI think that these kind of people need professional help, from a psychologist for example, but society is so closed to that kind of topic that they are afraid of telling somebody about their condition.
ReplyDeleteA possible solution to this, from my point of view, would be the saxual education since elementary school.
The education is the key, so the children when they become adults, they would not see sexuality with the same taboos as their parents.
i totally agree with Favela we need to the childrens that they can pretect their selves also for the parents to be in more contact with their childs so they can trust in them for telling them everything.
ReplyDeleteAlso i think is not such a bad thing, because it is a great excersise, but this is bad seeing by the church side.
