Sex is sex. It’s natural. The choice is entirely yours.
You are not a slut/whore because you choose to engage in sex/sexual activity. You are not a prude or a frigid bitch or unmanly if you don’t. It’s your body therefore it’s your decision. If it’s consensual and nothing illegal is taking place, it is not your business to judge others.
The first step - especially for young people with energy and drive and talent,...

There are two specifics songs I always enjoy hearing back to back: Perfect Symmetry (by Keane)…what to listen for: the bridge of the song. Even Rats (by The Slip)… what to listen for: the long drawn out ending.
I’ll even throw in: I Will Possess Your Heart (original extended version by Death Cab for Cutie)… what to listen for: the extremely long intro.
I think I’d like to do a paper, one day, on how we can’t help but objectify other things. I’m sure it might have been talked about in the subject-object problem/problem of other minds, but I think it would be interesting to see the social angle. Roughly, we are always objectifying something, even when we treat them as other “subjects.” When we’re attracted to...

So this grad seminar I took last semester… it kind of bugs me how the assignments are worth 4 points each. First presentation was 4 points, Discussion and participation was 4 points, first draft of research essay was 4 points, second presentation was 4 points, and final draft of research paper was 4 points.
…My 50 page thesis/research paper worth 4 points. -_____- At least I got...
All thinking is historical and enclosed. All justice, all liberty, all language, all freedom, all do’s and do not’s. all including this post was thought with history. It’s all part of the discourse. And it disappears with a response of universal indifference and silence as soon as we all disappear. But, it’s part of the game that we love to play: the game of life....
INTP Confession #183
intpconfessions:
I’ve always been more comfortable in social situations where nobody knows who I am. This makes it a lot easier for me to blend in and pretend to be something that I’m not.
But I can never not be myself. I expose myself sharing my interests and dislikes, and I expose myself by way of blending in. Blending in is a character trait; it is in my personality. Thus, I am always...

I wrote this back in my teen years, but it seems appropriate for this space. I live in this odd place where I’m nostalgic for situations I never experienced. Nostalgia vu.
I thrive on anticipation; my entire life revolves around the possibility that someday, somewhere, with someone, something might happen. And that’s all kosher. Until the anticipation begins to outweigh the...

The feeling of procrastination is a result of the pressure to participate in this “game” society has us playing. We’re expected to keep busy with tasks that other people consider worthwhile. Because God knows, if we don’t have that dream job, big house, flashy car, and family vacations to Maui we have little to no value in this society.
INTP Confession #175
intpconfessions:
I wish people could see that my emotions, when tapped, are actually more fragile than a thin sheet of glass. Which is why I guard them with a dense, icy wall. Few things spark much emotional reaction within me. But when those moments come, whether positive or negative, it’s a rush that I am simply not used to. Well… back to my logical analyses of every single thing imaginable.

Today at Barnes and Nobles, I came across this girl about my age while standing in line to pay for a book. We happened to strike up surface level conversation for the sake of conversing. She seemed pretty cool for the minute or two we talked maybe. Then, just before our end of the line got up to the register, she whispers to me “Look at that girl about to check out our...

I can see the logical arguments for and against pretty much everything. It’s all a constant debate inside my head.
