People always ask me why I haven't settled down. Well, as the great Russel Peters once said, "I love women. If I marry one, that means I love woman." Besides, I don't want to be stuck with Onegina. I believe monogamy is unrealistic and wastes people's time. I'll probably get a lot of flack from women out here, because they think that people should only "stick to one." If that's the case, then ladies I would like you to explain to me the appeal of Channing Tatum and the rest of Magic Mike. Or why Fifty Shades of Gray became a bestselling book when it primarily stands for abuse.
Lechery and polygamy are ways of life that have been universally accepted into the public
consciousness, yet everyone will deny its potency and meaningfulness in our modern society. Take a close look at ads, movies, books, and pop culture. You see titles like "How to be a Good Mistress" by Dolly Ann
Carvajal, "The Art of Seduction" by Robert Greene, manuals on how to be discreet all over television, radio, and the Internet. Now are our morals as a society going down the drain? No, I think its because that as we progress in science and technology,we are finding that our basest instincts come into the forefront and have become harder to deny.
Puritanism and old and tradition have been tenets of our society for centuries. I find nothing wrong with being traditional and following tradition. As a matter of fact, our whole society and way of life was founded on the basis of following tradition. However, we as a society have the great and unavoidable need to evolve and grow. The greatest innovations man has come up with have been based on breaking norms and what is considered regular trains of thought. If you go back a hundred years, would anyone ever have thought that people of different race and gender would generally be accepted and have somewhat equal rights as what is considered normal?
We as a society are evolving. We as a society are also digressing into our primal states, it just so happens we are coming up with ways to express our animal instincts. At the end of the day, we are all nothing but animals, flesh, bone, sinew, and synapses. Our instincts, our wants, and our desires are what make us human. To deny them, or even to try, is to deny our humanity.
