For Instance : http://apps.facebook.com/photosilove/vi … amp;ref=mf is going around facebook. No it isn't a restaurant, but there are average people hanging out.. with their husbands and/or children.
I decided after reading the responses (many of which I could almost feel the men beating their chest and going up / down. Yes.. me me me.. pick me. YeaH. I like boobies.. yeah.. me! ) No judgments.. sure we are part of the animal kingdom, hear us roar? However, we have a "bigger" brain, a conscious, the ability to make cognate decisions. We can control where our mind goes, how long we spend there and do we want to go back.
I am an artists.. I have drawn nudes / women & men. Not once did I feel the urge to ... do anything but draw the models. I know, I am a freak of nature .. a person who does not want to use their "SEX" as a selling tool in marketability. Even with higher & more spiritual connections between a man and woman, there are times that do result with the union of their bodies – however, it becomes an act of love & connection to our divine nature --> NOT lower impulse LUST.
Also, you may not be interested .. but for those who are... www.change.org has writers who are addressing "human trafficking issues" and can you guess what humans are being used / sold for?
S-E-X! Since .. we are still part of the greater animal kingdom, we do still have those lower (survival) instincts. Must mate... must reproduce.. keep the species alive. Those thoughts do not generally get raised to the surface, but the end result is exactly why MEN respond how they do to a nude woman. And of course women know this. For the majority of our life we have been forced fed through magazines, TV, movies.. of our worth.
For me, there is a time and place for everything. Taking a bowel movement is natural, but we DO NOT do it in front of a group of strangers (generally). Since I believe my body is a SACRED SPACE I will NOT share it with horn dogs A-Z. I will chose selectively who I want to share my most intimate gift ... with. What can be more precious than the union between two souls in love?
As for the hoots to see a nude woman vs a man, you will get no hoots from our table .. no matter what gender-it is NOT appropriate in my book of life. I do not want to be an animal, therefor I will not act like on.
Themz my thoughts.
This is my idea of the human body as ART!
