  I think, as with most things, it’s a continuum. On one end, they are pretty chill and at the other end are the extremists that are convinced exposed shoulders will instantly corrupt anyone with a penis.

  Its definitely true and there’s a lot of correlation between sexual assault/misconduct and repression though doing science here is obviously really hard so all I can share is some personal anecdotes.

  I see a lot of sex tourists here in Thailand (and Vietnam where I lived previously) from repressed countries like middle east region and India and its scary how badly these people are behaving to the point where they are banned from many sex avenues. I had a fried who basically was a Islam virgin and a complete sexual retard and obviously very promiscuous when detached from that until he managed to grow up in a year or two.

  Religious sexual repression is scary. My pet theory is that middle east problems would be solved if every dude was just handed a pocket pussy when they turn 16 lol

    How will that solve being invaded and meddled with for oil and trade routes?

    Or 2000 years ago, being invaded and meddled with for frankincense and trade routes?

      Because it takes a special psychological state for people to contribute to these actions. Sexual repression highly contributes to creating such mental states.

        I don’t think the Greek and Roman pagans were known for sexual repression and yet they engaged in wars and conquests, including of the Middle East and Arabia. It has always been about resources and access to them.

      2000 years ago would’ve been the Romans, Christianity much less Catholicism simply didn’t exist at that time. And I think Morocco conquered Andalusia before the crusades. By like 400 years.

  My Catholic friend had most pleasure removed from sex. He doesn’t see it as filthy or sinful, but is very nervous by the prospect of disease and pregnancy. He still enjoys having sex because his partners have loved it, and he likes making them happy.

  It’s more of a game of how quickly/often he can make them climax. For him it is just kind of boring and getting in the way of sleeping/cuddling which he finds much more pleasant.
