No the problem is casual sex. Humans can’t help but become jealous of their sexual partners past and current lovers. The idea of the one you love having a future lover is revolting. Sex is both the most sacred and most disgusting thing in our relationships with others. The best thing to do is have a culture of monogamy; not necessarily one where you have to be married, but one where people only have sex with someone they at that moment see a real future with and have built a relationship with for a few months. Profligate sex has always and will always breed resentment, jealousy, and distrust between the sexes. Man is not capable of turning the other cheek here, it is best to keep the situation controlled

I understand that hypocrisy is bad. The problem is that he’s justifying promiscuous sex at all, and using a comparison between bad and worse to do it. The right thing to do is have sex like a human, in a relationship with someone you love, so that you don’t send ripples of emotional pain through society. John Greene doesn’t see that promiscuity causes those ripples, he’s either too woke or too much of a panderer.

>> No.15396626

Because his prescription for that is damaging. Basically he's saying women shouldn't be judged for sleeping around. Ok, no double standard - now we have a society of degenerated nd emotionally broken people, but at least we aren't hypocrites. The right way is to save sex until marriage. John Green essentially wants the opposite.

No, it's because he makes this board green with sickness and disgust. Allow me to demonstrate:

>"Augustus Waters," I said, looking up at him, thinking that you cannot kiss anyone in the Anne Frank House, and then thinking that Anne Frank, after all, kissed someone in the Anne Frank House, and that she would probably like nothing more than for her home to have become a place where the young and irreparably broken sink into love.
>"I must say," Otto Frank said on the video in his accented English, "I was very much surprised by the deep thoughts Anne had."
>And then we were kissing. My hand let go of the oxygen cart and I reached up for his neck, and he pulled me up by my waist onto my tiptoes. As his parted lips met mine, I started to feel breathless in a new and fascinating way. The space around us evaporated, and for a weird moment I really liked my body; this cancer-ruined thing I'd spent years dragging around suddenly seemed worth the struggle, worth the chest tubes and the PICC lines and the ceaseless bodily betrayal of the tumors.
>"It was quite a different Anne I had known as my daughter. She never really showed this kind of inner feeling," Otto Frank continued.
>The kiss lasted forever as Otto Frank kept talking from behind me. "And my conclusion is," he said, "since I had been in very good terms with Anne, that most parents don't know really their children."
>I realized that my eyes were closed and opened them. Augustus was staring at me, his blue eyes closer to me than they'd ever been, and behind him, a crowd of people three deep had sort of circled around us. They were angry, I thought. Horrified. These teenagers, with their hormones, making out beneath a video broadcasting the shattered voice of a former father.
>I pulled away from Augustus, and he snuck a peck onto my forehead as I stared down at my Chuck Taylors. And then they started clapping. All the people, all these adults, just started clapping, and one shouted "Bravo!" in a European accent. Augustus, smiling, bowed

What bothers me is not so much that shit is beyond crass and outright offensive (we're on 4chan after all) and that no person in their right fucking mind would do this unless they were looking to be dragged out of the building by security, it's that it served no purpose. Green could have just set this scene in a regular museum or a church service and it would have played out basically the same. He chose the Anne Frank House as the setting in a piss poor attempt to be "edgy" and therefore relevant. So his fellow bleeding heart liberals would point at it and go "look at how stunning and brave he is for doing that."

Granted, the parts of the Confederate soldiers soldiers saving pregnant Anne Frank fanfiction I have actually written are themselves, crass, intentionally offensive, and even downright disgusting with sex and violence that would make Game of Thrones blink, but it actually serves a number of purposes in the narrative, which are

A. Challenge readers' preconceived notions about the Holocaust, Nazism, American foreign policy since WWII, and the South in particular.

B. Explore Anne's maturation from that of a child to an adult, a process that is accelerated (physically, emotionally, and sexually) by her own impending motherhood.

C. Explore the largest and most devastating largest military confrontation in the Western Hemisphere and the long shadow it cast and what the ramifications of a Confederate victory would have been (beyond slavery).

D. Explore the Confederacy as a nation that is essentially in a spiritual war with itself, struggling to come to terms with the consequences of a conflict that was not a glorious victory (as is often envisioned in alternate history), but a hollow one, as the Antebellum way of life which it fought so hard to preserve, is ultimately sacrificed to protect itself from re-subjegation by the Union.

E. Explore what a person (Anne Frank, Peter van Pels to an extent) who has no emotional or familial investment in the titanic struggle of North against South would make of points C and D.

yes, it's hypocritical for a fuckboy to chastise women for sleeping around.
There is, however, a big difference between men and women because a woman can just open her legs and it's a guarantee that a guy will want to fuck her.
By being promiscuous a woman shows a failure in character, a lack of self control.
Meanwhile a guy who can fuck a lot of women is a very capable guy, why? Because most men don't get to fuck many women.
The most virtuous behavior for a man is for him to have the ability to fuck as many women as they want and choosing to have a single faithful relationship with a woman they love.

Okay, I see your point. But I don't like your example in this context because we aren't talking about child rearing, we are talking about sexual expression which is a universal human experience regardless of gender. I have the stance that much of our societal norms are completely adopted and the human being is much closer to a tabula rasa than cultural traditionalist believe. This is a basic premise of postmodernism applied to gender and sexuality. That's how we get people becoming Trans and non binary because they reject gender essentialism.

I concede that their is biological difference between men and women, specifically on a hormonal basis. Women lack testosterone and they possess estrogenal hormonal cycles because of their genitalia. This plays a significant role in brain chemistry and personality. But the majority of the differences we see in men and women today are purely adopted differences. We literally separate male children from female children, dress them differently, treat them differently, condition them to their assigned gender.

So, we say that Penelope is pathological for seeking many sexual partners while Odysseus is simply a healthy man for this behavior. This has nothing to do with the behavior of either of them, but what is dictated as societally healthy. We only say Penelope is behaving pathologically because she is straying from the puritan standard that women should only have one male partner, get married, and become a mother of children. So any behavior that strays from this predetermined path becomes "evidence of pathology." The hypocrisy here is that it has nothing to do with Penelope or Odysseus is the fact that they are man and woman and for some reason require different behaviors for them to be moral. Both of them are being stripped of individuality and autonomy and compelled to act in a way that does not fulfill them, but requires to serve the polis. I know that this is not the point of the scene in the Odyssey, but traditionalist anon is literally projecting their christian morality onto a time period of a completely different culture. Where homosexuality was much more normalized and women weren't even championed as protector of the homestead.

But if we look to Victorian England where all these rich women were becoming "hysterical" because their husbands would smoke, drink, gamble, and never indulge their wives emotionally or sexually. Quite literally their is evidence that abstinence requires pathology and sexuality is a powerful drive that needs some form of sublimation.

Arguably those adopted differences are extensions of sexual dimorphism i.e. different clothes, different colors, different toys, etc. It's been shown that boys and girls deviate naturally and will gravitate towards certain areas the other will not. This makes sense -- young girls can't interact with young boys, not without the boys significantly altering their behavior patterns and playstyle, and vice-versa for the young girls. Before the onset of puberty, both sexes appear to naturally segregate themselves in order to develop primary social skills before moving on outside of their sexual spheres to interact with the other sex on a more intimate and involved basis.

There's certainly societal conditioning that influences this nature, but our nature came before our society. I'd make the argument that whether we like it or not, while most of our differences are ostensibly window-dressing, they have their root in near-immovable and immutable biology. The way we think about the form these things take may be up for discussion and re-interpretation -- but the biological truth, or whatever you want to call it, will remain.
