Would you copulate with them though? I mean, fast food isn't particularly attractive either, but sometimes under the right circumstances it can be what you need.

In the right circumstance I would copulate with them probably. But if you want to refrain from apathic cultural relativism you don't answer questions while thinking about yourself in every possible emotional circumstance, you think about yourself as you want to view yourself and how you (hopefully) are most of the time. Hence my answer.

I've always considered myself humble in my tastes. I like cheap drink and food and shitty housing. I enjoy wifebeaters and ragged clothes. Then I've asked myself, if the simple joys are so pleasant, what is keeping me from indulging in the more simple pleasures when it concerns sex? This is one of the things most people are very picky about. When we eat kebab after a night on the town we don't think less of ourselves. What's wrong with going with some nice homely girl, both enjoying yourselves for a night?

People are less stuck up about sex than ever, but they still consider their sexual partners an achievement, something that reflects one status. Something for the resume. If we loosen up a bit, we can all have a better time.

Not that I mean to deride the ladies as something shitty to consume and do away with. I'm sure I've slept with women who consider me below their greater ambitions. But if you enjoy it, what's the problem?

"They sing before too, but when they realize that they must die they sing most and most beautifully, as they rejoice that they are about to depart and join the god whose servants they are. But men, because of their own fear of death, tell lies about the swans and say that they lament their death and sing in sorrow. They do not reflect that no bird sings when it is hungry or cold or suffers in any other way, neither the nightingale nor the swallow not the hoopoe, though they do say that these sing laments when in pain. Nor do the swans, but I believe that as they belong to Apollo, they are prophetic, have knowledge of the future, and sing of the blessings of the underworld, sing and rejoice on that day what they did before."

>> No.2921435

>>2921380

I would agree with you most of the time. It is just my idealism, my wish to achieve a better (less stuck up btw) world by setting an example. It has something to do with the way those girls degrade themselves as tools for pleasure, or at least, live up to that image.

I don't eat kebab after a night out for about the same reason. I can do without, and I want to do without, like I want to do without the carnal interaction with the likes of those girls.

With that said, i'm liberal enough to let everyone have their own pleasure, and not think less of them most off the time. There is a line between indulging in all that is easy to achieve and hedonism. A line between perhaps a sort of civil way of indulging?

I don't really understand what you're getting at.

>>2921435
I'm an idealist too, but I wish to live a simple life that is free from strange hang-ups and the anxiety of our general social game. I don't feel those girls degrade themselves, by the way. At least not more than I degrade myself when I try to entice women to come home with me. We all try to seduce people. If one does that in a pencil skirt and a pair of Louboutins at an art gallery or with a trampstamp and a cleavage in a divebar doesn't really alter the situation. It's just different advertising, the motive remains the same.

I do without junkfood too, but with women it is different. That was my original comparison of course, for which I was wrong. Junk food and good food have different effects on ones well being. Gourmet food and simple peasant cuisine do not. The same goes for mingling with higher or lower class people. It's not that one is more detrimental than the other, it's just a different flavour.

That said, I can see that you have some ideal for yourself (that is probably partly aesthetic) that leads you to not want to be a person frolicking around with skanks. My ideal is that I do so, in addition to frolicking around with other types as well. I believe life to be lived best as a cheerful rake, and doing so includes enjoying all kinds of fruits, not in restricting myself to the ones of a certain (ideological) status. I'd rather happily pluck around me as I ramble along.
