“Same-sex couples should have the right to civil marriage. Our time on this earth is limited, I know that better than most. Life comes down to who you love and who loves you back- government has no place in the middle.” KnowsShouldGovernmentEarthSexMiddleLove YouCoupleShould HaveOur Time Author:Mark Kirk
“Marriage is not something that can be accomplished all at once; it has to be constantly reaccomplished. A couple must never indulge in idle tranquility with the remark: "The game is won; let's relax." The game is never won. The chances of life are such that anything is possible. Remember what the dangers are for both sexes in middle age. A successful marriage is an edifice that must be rebuilt every day.” AgeRememberGamesSexChanceMarriageSuccessfulMiddleDangerCoupleAccomplishedRelaxIdleTranquilityIndulgeRemarksMiddle AgesIndulge InAnything Is PossibleEdificeSuccessful Marriage Author:Andre Maurois
“Ambitious young women today are taught to ignore or suppress every natural instinct, if it conflicts with the feminist agenda posed on them. All literary and artistic works, no matter how great, that document the ambivalence of female sexuality they are trained to dismiss as "misogynous." In other words, their minds are being programmed to secede from their bodies ... there is a huge gap between feminist rhetoric and women's actual sex lives, where feminism is of little help except with a certain stratum of deferential, malleable, white middle-class men.” IfsMenMindLittlesMatterHelpingBodyTodayYoungCertainSexNaturalWhiteClassFeminismMiddleTaughtHugeConflictFemaleInstinctFeministSexualityArtisticMiddle ClassAgendasGapsAmbitiousRhetoricYoung WomenDocumentsAmbivalenceFemale SexualityNatural InstinctLittle Help Author:Camille Paglia
“This used to be about sex. The literature of my people was pornography, filled with cries for mercy, drama enacted on people without prolonged negotiation, partners engaged in a dance in the middle of a bonfire.

“Ideas about the scope and meaning of freedom of speech do expand and contract with the times. At the moment, we live in an age that is very permissive, both legally and socially, on a wide range of subjects from Karl Marx to kinky sex. This has not always been the case. Things that even children freely see and read and hear today -- writings, pictures, words -- would have been banned as just plain obscene, even for adults, as recently as the middle of the twentieth century.” WritingChildrenHas BeensIdeasMomentsAgeTodaySexCasesMiddleSubjectsCenturySpeechAdultsWideRangeContractsFreedom Of SpeechScopeTwentieth CenturyBannedObsceneKinky Author:Lawrence M.

“I don't know what falling in love for me is. The concept of romantic love arose in the Middle Ages. Now remember, the Arabs don't even have a word for love-that is, a word for love apart from physical attraction or sex. And this separation of love and sex is a western concept, a Christian concept. As to what falling in love means, I'm uncertain. Love, well, it means simply physical attraction and liking a person at the same time.” KnowsWellsMeanPersonsAgeChristianRememberFallSexMiddleConceptsFalling In LoveWesternAttractionSeparationRomantic LoveUncertainMiddle AgesLove MeansPhysical Attraction Author:William S.

“I don't like my wrestling or entertainment in general to be too clean or predictable for me as a fan. When I say clean, I'm not talking about dirty jokes, middle fingers and stuff like that. I'm actually not even a big fan of that. A lot of people talk about the attitude era being so great but a lot of it was terrible crap, sex jokes and over-the-top terrible bad comedy. It was Jerry Springer-like. They made a joke about a woman's breasts. Hilarious, but where's the wrestling? I look back on a lot of stuff now, and I'm like where's the wrestling?

“You'll find that marriage is a good short cut to the truth. No, not quite that. A way of doubling back to the truth. Another thing you'll find is that the years of illusion aren't those of adolescense, as the grown-ups try to tell us; they're the ones immediately after it, say the middle twenties, the false maturity if you like, when you first get thoroughly embroiled in things and lose your head. Your age, by the way, Jim. That's when you first realize that sex is important to other people besides yourself.
