Baffled by Promiscuity

Why? Because I never had the the self-confidence (or the reason thereof) to actually practice it... Being what I am somehow automatically includes me to the group of liberals, but I'm still stuck with conservatism. People rationalize that within the world where men meet men, *refer to subject* is the way to go. But I know buried deep within that semi-ideal philosophy is a basic prereq: physical attraction.

And thus, my world crashes.

Or so I think. I don't know... Maybe that's the reason why I love reading Sidney Sheldon. Often the lead characters are gorgeous, aggressive, devil-may-care females who, also often (approaching always) use their sexuality to reach their goals. Now I don't mean to imply that I can relate with them on the level of sexuality, because that would be preposterous as Dean would say. What Im trying to get to is that one's external qualities (notice the euphemisms... conservative I told you) seem to be an important ingredient for success, love, vengeance, and all the other sweet things in life. One might say my values are all screwed up, but I'd reply with a heartbeat

"Face the world babe, the world's all screwed up the way I am."

Amen.
