Folks I asked my loyal Filthy Readers to come up with suggestions about topics
that they know do exist but well the society we live in has tabooed, and i got
a fair response so reading along the suggested topics something
Filthy Caught my eye so here I am expressing my thoughts on it.
So we all
have accepted at some stage in our lives that we have been in “LOVE”. So I
guessed if we all have been in love (being in love and being in relation are
different loving someone is all that matters for the topic) we all should
pretty much know a lot about love isn't it?
So let’s
take a Quick Quiz round I asked 10 random people to define love and was shocked
almost 8 of them said the same thing as if they learnt love from the same book,
they said and I quote “LOVE IS THE EMOTIONAL BOND BETWEEN TWO SOULS THAT IS
PURE AND UNCORRUPT FROM ANY EXPECTATIONS “ok so if while reading this if you
agree with what they said say aye! And note it down somewhere that you agree.
OK now
let’s go through a beautiful story, once there was a man who loved a woman they
were madly in love so they ran away and got married. They were poor so the man
couldn’t feed the woman and give her pleasures so just to keep her happy he
decides to steal, he gets caught goes to prison for 20 years for armed robbery
and murder attempt and the woman leaves him. He comes out of prison and has
lost all hopes from life when he suddenly meets another woman who loves him
more than anyone ever did and they get married have two wonderful babies and
live happily ever after …….
So how many
of you went awwwww…. Note it down if you did. Now let’s edit this story a
little.
The base of
story is same just towards the end when the man gets out of prison and has lost
all hopes he meets this woman and falls in love again so does this woman but
the catch is that this woman is no one else but his own DAUGHTER from his wife
who left him while he was in prison. Yes it is a True story this story is of a
couple who have been fighting the society, government and The Church
authorities to be together.
So now
honestly tell me how many of you went Ewwwww….. I bet your aww changed to eww
just because a guy and his daughter fell in love and have babies.
Now let’s go
through another beautiful story
There was a
widow woman who had 2 young kids and she worked all day to feed them , her late
husband’s brothers have been showing lust towards her and she is pretty sure
she will die , but then comes this prince charming and fights all , defeats all
and marries her and they live happily ever after…..
Wasn't it
adorable? Almost as if Disney wrote it. Now let’s edit just a bit, the
prince charming is no one else but that widow woman’s elder son who
fights all and marries his own mother and believe it or not his mom is pregnant
you don’t believe me? Check this link out at the end of the blog….
We live in a
society where we move around saying that we all believe in LOVE and how pure ,
uncorrupt and mysterious it is but this same double faced society would ban Gay
marriages, would not allow incestuous relationship (blood related people
can’t have sex)
This are
just two examples see around yourself you find people preaching about love
blowing love’s head off every breathing second.We see husbands and wives
cheating on their spouse as they are bored and need a change or they were
attracted, I am not saying that love does not exist all I am saying is love is
not just what we think it is, what’s wrong if gay people marry? according the
definitions you guys gave love is just an emotional bond between two souls ,
gay people too have souls, the father and daughter who got married should have
every right in the world to be together and be happy , who gave us the power to
say what is normal and what’s not ?? How dare people call their love gross and
sinful? How is their love different from your love towards your respective
loved one?
Heard About
Woody Allen? We all grew up watching his movies didn’t we? He too is in an
incestuous relationship with his step daughter ….
Now if you
want to argue about how your religion says its bad, well friends if two people
from different religions can marry in this century so can any two individuals
with no matter how they are related……
Going even
into more bizarre fact a man married his horse as he felt that the horse is the
only living creature who ever cared about him, took care of him when he wasn’t
well and sadly he’s on the run as what he did was a crime in his country.
So readers
either accept the fact that while talking about love you can’t neglect the
physicality as most of the time you did ewww…was cause you read that dad and
daughter had sex or mother and son had sex. Or imagining a man and a horse , I
won’t say gay men as most of us have accepted them (even though we don’t allow
them to marry) I think the day we accept all possible relations in love will be
the day when LOVE will be what you guys defined.
Loving and
having sex with someone related to you by blood, loving and having sex with
someone having same gender as you, loving and having sex with someone/something
from other species is not at all FILTHY,, talking about love being pure and
that it can happen to anyone in public and then neglecting, hurting and banishing
the above mentioned people is what I actually call FILTHY.In today's world its
just like the story of the forbidden apple ,its there but we cant bite it,so
now it’s up to you what is shallow and who is narrow minded now eeh? by this
blog I do not wish to hurt anyone’s sentiments I have merely stated my views on
the facts that I found going through the research of the topic, all web links
with proof about content given below check if you wish….

ReplyDeleteIn Leo Tolstoy’s War and Peace, the author distinguishes between necessity and free mind. He believes that any act that appears to have been performed out of free will actually turns out to become a necessity once we consider three factors: 1) Relationship of person committing the act with external force 2) Period of time and 3) Causal factors. Generally, an act that seems to have been done out of free will and seem unpardonable will seem to be necessitous and acceptable once considering the above three factors.
Take for example necrophilia (having sexual relation with dead people).’A person committing necrophilia should be executed’ says one, as the act seems to have been done entirely out of free will. But what if this person was forced to lead a life abstaining from sex by his fanatically religious mother? What if the person had been forced to wear a chastity belt and never remove it by the same woman? What if this person lived with his mother alone in a desolate place stripped of life and the only place where humans were present was the graveyard? The sole access to human body other than his mother would be the graveyard. Can we say that this person has done this out of free will or has he been conditioned by his surroundings to perform this seemingly heinous act?
Also come into consideration is the time factor. Gay marriages which seemed blasphemous and profane in the past are now considered acceptable after the rise of LGBT organizations and psychological, biological proof that gays (and lesbians) were born that way without a choice? Time is to be considered while taking any matter into consideration. What about human torture? Before, while tyrants ruled, sadistic human torture was inflicted on prisoners and civilians without taking into consideration their dignity and pain. Now, after the rise of laws, many countries have pledged to do away with death penalty entirely. The third factor here is the direct cause/s that leads a person to commit the act. A mother has been arrested for poor treatment of her daughter. But what if the mother was treated by her own mother very poorly and simply displaced her anger on her own daughter? This was the most direct cause in the case and hence we see that free will is reduced and necessity is increased in the case.
Tolstoy says that the moment we bring this endless chain of causal, external and temporal factors, we find the absence of free will in every case. He believes that laws exist in every situation and the ‘free will’ that people usually talk of (e.g. this incident happened by the Grace of God/ Napoleon’s genius led to his rise) is nothing but laziness on the part of theorists who just can’t accept that laws exist everywhere. Tolstoy deems this ‘free will’ as an unknown variable ‘x’ that can be determined only when probed further and further. In doing so, he rejects most of his contemporary’s views but what he is not able to give is a solution.
In the questions you pose, can we say that a person should be pardoned for having sexual relationship with his four year old daughter? Or should a woman be pardoned for bestiality (sex between humans and lower creatures), an act where the animal does not really have a choice – can a bull speak ‘Wait miss, I prefer blondes’? Human life is so complex when visualized from a macro view that one cannot always find anything to be ‘permanent’, and in your case, any outlook on subjects such as necrophilia, incest, gay marriage, bestiality etc. What I feel is that a person’s mind is always influenced by what he sees, hears around him which in turn affects his mind, speech and actions. Blacks getting the same rights as whites was considered offensive until civil rights movements began, many blacks began getting recognition, many white celebrities such as Marlon Brando, Marilyn Monroe showed support, white supremacist groups lost momentum, blacks became famous in US (Oprah Winfrey), ‘black music’ consisting of rap and hip hop became mainstream etc.

ReplyDeletecontd...
I personally experienced such questions while meditating at an Art of Living course recently. My mind went into a state where my inner voice began questioning about life, love and acceptance. And what I learnt that the most fundamental form in life is the soul, which remains sacrosanct. Outside that we have mind, body, skin which begin creating divisions i.e. I am a man because I have a penis, or I excel at mathematics because I have greater constituent of a certain substance in my mind or I regard myself a brown because I have brown skin. Above these come innumerable accessories which create uncountable divisions, such as nationality (you are an American because you were born in the USA which by the way is the name of the classic Bruce Springsteen song), sexuality, political situation in the country, family life (you are considered a ‘bastard’ child because your parents married out of wedlock, financial situation etc. Again, what everything trickles down to is your pure soul.
We have two choices, either to live in the maddeningly evolving world or leave everything in order to enter a state of nothingness. In the first, we accept certain practices and reject some (I condemn homophobia – hateful attitude towards gays, but I cannot pardon incestuous relationships with one’s own mother, because I can’t think of myself indulging in such an activity). The view may differ in another person depending on his tendency or way of thinking. In the second course, we leave everything behind and pursue to free our souls from the circle of life.

ReplyDeleteKeep one thing in mind: you decide what is right or wrong for you. The society decides what is right or wrong for everyone. Certain elements in the society may consider you to be on the right side and others on the wrong side. It's all a balancing act - life isn't just a circle, it is also a circus!
