its a private activity between (usually) 2 consenting individuals, both of which enjoy it, and nobody gets hurt.

that's because of an understanding of hygiene.
what people commonly find to be 'disgusting' are actions that are likely to make you ill
(eating shit, licking someones snotty hanky, drinking vomit, etc)

if your sexual partner(s) have good hygiene, and are clean down there, its not disgusting at all.

im not trying to force you to do anything, all im saying is, you dont have the right to force other people to obey your own particular brand of morality if they are not hurting people.
they can do what they like, and have as much promiscuous sex as they like, etc, and its none of your business.

and in return, you can be a prude, stay a virgin forever (if you desire) and i will not have a problem with that. you arnt hurting anybody either, so you're free to do as you like

theres no direct link, i mean sure, a liberal lifestyle with regard to sex (choosing to be a hooker) might imply a liberal lifestyle with regard to drugs and things, and perhaps disregard for the law as well (so stealing) but they arnt directly linked.

Now this is just downright wrong. If they're at the low end of the price spectrum, then yeah, you may have a point - but expensive callgirls (200$ + per hour) are usually quite well mannered and educated. Most of them are either hedonistic and have adapted to making huge amounts of money in one night, or they simply enjoy sex without the emotional bullshit. At least that's my experience. And yeah, I've had quite a few of them in my time until I've found my current gf. See, I have morals, I wouldn't cheat on her. That has to account for something.

well so do i, but i'm still not a whore. i kinda think its immoral to charge for something that should be free. people should just choose their partners.

otherwise its kinda like you dont really want them, but you'll put up with it because you are rewarded.
so its kinda like 'consenting to rape' if that makes any sense, because they wouldnt actually be into it.
or even if they are, seeing as our both getting pleasure, its a bit unfair and unbalanced that one should be paid as well. if you both enjoy it, why is he paying her rather than the other way around?

'harm' i count as any kind of suffering
especially physical pain, but also restricting freedoms, restricting movement, emotional torment, etc.
'forcing another individual to experience any feeling that they do not like'

'freedom' - lack of restrictions, people not forcing you, bribing, you, or blackmailing you into performing actions you dont want to, or not performing actions you do want to.

Let's see. According to your definition of suffering there exists only physical pain. Any kind of mental discomfort, like for example depression, is not suffering to you then?
Your definition of freedom begs for defining "choice". Are you implying free will here?
"Morality" stays very vague in what you posted. What is "the highest extent"? How do you measure the extent of freedom?

Let me also draw some conclusions from your definitions. Since losing money is not physical pain and the opportunity of taking it is possible, it would follow that stealing is completely compatible with your defintion of morality, or even is encouraged as it would be an expression of your freedom.

>> No.4494681

>>4494649
for suffering, i mean any kind of undesirable biochemical affect in the brain triggered from external stimuli. e.g. pain receptors, but also things like fear, lonliness, desperation, feeling trapped, helpless etc.

for freedom i mean that you have the ability to persue your desires without being impeded by other humans.

this isnt circular, you must understand this.

Morality is subjective. If that's what you say, then your definitiion shouldn't be vague at all. You should be able to formulate what constitutes your morality.

i was intentionally vague because theres like infinite different ways it could happen, ill just provide some examples i guess.

so, i might desire to eat some food or something

>How can you "persue" them
erm, getting the food, putting it in my mouth

>how can this be "impeded" by others?
someone else taking the food and running away, shitting on the food, smashing up the food, or holding me away from it.

or:
wanting to smoke weed
persued by buying weed
impeded by other humans who will lock you away for trying to do it.

wanting a gay marriage (if i was a dude, and also gay...its just an example)
persued by finding some consenting engineer who wants to get married as well, choosing a date, making plans for the ceremony etc
impeded by religious arseholes who dont want you to do it even though it doesnt personally affect them and they dont know you and have never met you

oh, one more thing i wanted to add, i mean that these things are impeded just by humans (or other conscious animals at least) for it to count in my morality.

you dont have the right to not die in some freak accident, or get cancer, or to be hit by lightning, even though you will suffer.
morality doesnt really apply if there isnt other conscious beings affecting or being affected in some way.

Mine is defined by the aforementioned harm principle

I also acknowledge that my personal interpretation of morality (designed by neural networks and their best representation of my environment in the way it suits me and my species) may vary heavily from someone else's, and neither of us is right, because right and wrong are relative

I could write out every conceivable action that I consider to be "moral" and "immoral" but...why?

Sadly no. Your examples are too similar to each other and too simple. They are depicting a conflict between your person are your environment. Morality is most interesting as an inner conflict instead of something being forced upon you. I'd be more interested in the border cases of what YOU think is allowed to be desired and what isn't. Where you and only you are the one impeding yourself.

>> No.4494787

>>4494757
erm, i dont impede myself at all, other than my own human nature making me more or less likely to do things. (im likely to desire and seek pleasure, food, sleep, sex, company etc) while avoiding pain (fire, drowning, ice, sharp things)
also the laws of physics, i cant sprout a third arm even if i want to.

>I'd be more interested in the border cases of what YOU think is allowed to be desired and what isn't.
anythings allowed to be desired, theres no thoughtcrime, its just that its not always morally correct to put those desires into practise.

so like, if i desired the death of another human, its fair enough wanting them to be dead in my opinion, but actually making efforts to kill them is immoral.

The point here is not being right or wrong. What I'm on about is the difficulty of precisely formulating something that you subconsciously consider to be self-evident.

As I understand your post, you're saying that your morality is entirely defined by the physical and human laws. It doesn't exist inside of you, but is created by others. That means if hypothetically all human laws were abolished, there is nothing to impede you from commiting what was previously considered crime. Think about it. Is that what you wanted to say?

>> No.4494838

>>4494812
>not sure how much straightforward it gets
Not enough. I think we can agree that it is always possible to construct border cases in which you'd have to trade off your own potential suffering against other persons' potential suffering. Your harm principle doesn't give you a rule on how to quantify or to weight different forms of suffering.
