It was supposed to be a discussion of beauty. We're not allowed to do that now?

Here's the copypasta

Beauty thread

Schopenhauer says that the ability of human beings to recognize beauty is inborn and comes from nature, thus only women and landscapes can take beautiful forms. Schopenhauer also says that, looking at things from a hypothetical objective point of view, men are the more beautiful of the sexes, being balanced, proportionate, etc. It's only because we are men that our judgments are clouded into thinking that women are more beautiful. I could see how this is misogynistic view, projecting my modern biases into another era, but I also have an affinity for Schopenhauer's worldview - he's one of those universal philosophers whose views can be said to transcend the context of his own time and place

Bataille says that our enjoyment of beauty lies in its defilement, not possession.

I like this idea. It explains that, on the contrary, perverts are not really some abomination of diseased human beings, but rather a normal sexual drive

If we take the idea of jouissance, or for example, the idea that if civilization reverts to anarchy all would be chaos - because it is obvious looking at websites like 4chan that the true face of human beings is evil, destructive, corrupt, etc. - what if on the contrary, Freud was right, it is civilization itself that causes this hostility, this aggressiveness, blah blah blah

No biologist/psychologist explanations please. Those views have already been pretty much discredited.

Because women's breasts are redolent of the age of innocence and nativity.

Anything that reminds us of what we once were, when we had so much promise and a blank slate, needs to be eliminated.

I once had the idea, why do we attach the label "adult" to things that are dirty, pornographic, obscene? And why are breasts exceptionally dirty and obscene. It seems to me that, like the nicotine or alcohol "addict" who feels that he is sinning by consuming these things, and enjoys the transgression, he equally gains pleasure from the self-mortification of "going clean" i.e., going through withdrawal. Everyone cheers him on, a month now without cigarettes, congratulations! You did a bad thing, while it was good, now you're doing a good thing. My point is that, and I know much has been said about contemporary American culture, one of the mainstays of this culture is that of arbitrary prohibitions and the pleasure in breaking them, and not only that! but it's an open secret that you are allowed to break the rules, ONLY if don't get caught. Americans like to make rules, restrict freedom for everyone, but they also need these rules so they can have the pleasure of breaking them. It feels like Protestant ideological forms surviving as some sick remnant in society

The quality of /lit/ has gone down substantially lately and I feel as though this thread is case-in-point.

Žižek talks about the dualities in American culture. Derrida talks about some particular aspects of American culture. Nietzsche talks about the essence of being a German. Baudrillard wrote a fucking book. It's called cultural studies
