Pleasure... True or False? The Question Revisited

As far as I'm concerned, when we are talking masculine and feminine, we are talking baseline.

How the masculine and feminine interact is the baseline determinant for the quality of pleasure we experience.

It's all about harmony... skillful, creative work with difference.

When the socket embraces the electrical plug, the machine turns on.

When the cell receptor site embraces the hormone, the cell activates.

When the agenda book receives the writing of the pen, the person has a "to do" list—a list filled, one hopes, with pleasurable activities.

Humans have a much wider range of choice than the other beings on the planet. Such a wide range, in fact, that we are capable of moving against the flows of Divinely inspired creativity, justice, wisdom, and love.

We are also capable of dragging other beings along with us on such ill-advised paths.

When we misuse the interaction of feminine and masculine, we wound ourselves in the most profound ways.

The embrace of the masculine by the feminine and the gifting into the feminine by the masculine are intimate and vulnerable procedures. Amongst humans, these procedures can be used to facilitate everything from respectful, loving connection to petty thievery to plunder and rape. Any pleasure gained from thievery or rape is of extremely low quality and will severely impact the viability of the bodies of the people involved. This is similar to how the embrace of the mouth around a low quality food will severely impact the viability of the body attached to that mouth.

What quality of pleasure have you written into your agenda today?
