So here is the secondary part of the post i began last night (though technically it was so late that it was just REALLY early today). And now i continue it late at night when i REAAAALY want to go to sleep. It would be so nice to just go upstairs and curl up in bed and float away in my dreams. Instead i am writing this because i said i would.
Yesterday i explained my thoughts as to my prostitution is wrong with the basis of why sex is wrong because of the western mindset of the mind being divine and the body being profane. As such the body is wrong in this view meaning that selling something the body wants or selling the body is wrong.
Now i want to offer another thought, what is selling books? Or articles in newspapers and magazines. These are thoughts which come from your mind meaning they are divine. You are selling the divine to whoever can pay.
Add in the way that thoughts and words have to be in some way consciously planned out and as such mean more. But you don't give them to just any one do you? Well for some reason giving away divine to anyone who could pay, whether they could afford it or not doesn't seem to strike anyone as divine prostitution but rather just the way things naturally should be.
Why? Selling thought to anyone despite if they can appreciate it or even understand it is somehow acceptable. I guess then what you need to decide is does this blog make me a whore or not.
And is it ok for me to be, or are all forms of prostitution wrong?
so i totally made the "prostitution is ok" argument in english seminar today and got asked if i knew from experience by my TA.
