“Sex is a doorway to something so powerful and mystical, but movies usually depict it in a completely flat way. Being explicit doesn't tap into the mystical aspect of it either in fact, that usually kills it because people don't want to see sex so much as they want to experience the emotions that go along with it. These things are hard to convey in film because sex is such a mystery.” PeopleWayWantHardFactsFilmSexPowerfulEmotionMysteryAspectFlatsMysticalDoorwaysExplicit Author:David Lynch
“I think virginity is fine, just as I think having sex is fine. I don't really care what women do sexually, and neither should you. In fact, that's the point. I believe that a young woman's decision to have sex, or not, shouldn't impact how she's seen as a moral actor.” ThinkingShouldBelieveFactsCareYoungActorsI BelieveSexDecisionMoralFineImpactYoung WomenSexuallyVirginityHaving Sex Author:Jessica Valenti
“In fact a man in love or one consumed with hatred creates symbols for himself, as a superstitious man does, from a passion of conferring uniqueness on things or persons. A man who knows nothing of symbols is one of Dante's sluggards. This is why art mirrors itself in primitive rites or strong passions, seeking for symbols, revolving round the primitive taste for savagery, for what is irrational (blood and sex).” KnowsMenPersonsDoeArtFactsPassionStrongSexBloodTasteHatredMirrorsRoundsSeekingSymbolsPrimitiveUniquenessIrrationalConsumedSuperstitiousRiteSavageryRevolvingStrong Passion Book:This Business of Living: Diaries 1935-1950 Source: This Business of Living: Diaries 1935-1950

“Sex itself only only exists in relation to procreation. That's one of the reasons why I sometimes object, and it's just a theoretical objection, but it's worth thinking about, to the whole notion that one calls what people of the same sex do, sexual relations. As a matter of fact, they have precisely turned their back on sexual relations, in order to engage in acts of mutual pleasure that have nothing whatsoever to do with sexuality...” PeopleThinkingSometimesMatterReasonWholeFactsOrderSexPleasureObjectsRelationNotionSexualityReason WhyMutualTheoreticalMatter Of FactObjectionsProcreation Author:Alan Keyes
