I just don't understand where men are suppressed sexually. I understand it can happen as a child, at home-- but once out in the culture-- Wow-- it seem it's everywhere for men-- encouraging men to act through their desires and fulfill their sexual fantasies. I don't understand others asking "why" men would have a sexual disorder("addiction"-- as is pop culture speak)-- I ask why wouldn't they?

It's like if everywhere one went there was wine, wine commercials, movies about wine, magazines about wine, billboards of wine, wine stores with flashy signs all lit up-- then doesn't it seem understandable to think that some of the population are going to be obsessed with wine, being that it's difficult to go anywhere without seeing it?

I feel bad for any human that is "mentally" suppressed sexually-- most women know oh too well what that is like-- it's awful. I was not taught(at home) any negatives about sex... I was not taught much about anything.
It's been my experience(from family, neighbors and acquintances) that most boys are brought up to treasure their sexual drive/part -- to equate it to their manlieness. I'm sure though that there could be a small minority of boys raised to think like most girls-- that sex is bad(dirty) and your body is not to be touched by yourself- that makes you bad.

"If sex were (emotionally) easy for us, why would we need to be so preoccupied with it "........ I'm not so sure it has anything to do with the emotions of sex -- but the emotions of relationships. I wonder if that's where the struggle mostly lies-- within oneself and the thinking/comfort in relationships. Sex seems to be a way for some to detour around having to have emotions and/or be in a healthy relationship.(the "addiction" as pop culture likes to call it) I just wonder if it could be similar to cutting-- in that its a dysfunction in dealing with ones emotions??? maybe??

thanks pachy for conversing and explaining things-- I very much respect and appreciate your presence here.
