Sex, Lies & The Theory Of Love
i'm fuckin fire in a can now. add that to the stick i got from a bro about the dishonesty of this blogsite, today's entry is gonna be somethin from the heart. so i'ma type somethin i actually mean this time. and for this special occasion you get to see my fire.
the theory of love is not uncommon. everyone has got one but this, i'm convinced is the theory of love.
love as we know it (romance, romantic affection, endearment, whatever), does not exist in the real sense of the word. there was no such thing as romantic love. there was no such thing as romantic affections from the bottom of your heart for another. it was created. i can even tell you when it was created. circa 1750 the industrial revolution, and henceforth became a fictitious flame further fanned by the amazing works of busybody propagators and literary visionaries such as william shakespeare. the rise of the machines and the shrinkin(?) of the extended family made a new problem -the need to pass property down the family line to keep it away from the state. people had been marryin each other way before this but then a new socio-economic climate had emerged to heat up the scenes. somewhere in that tumultuous age, we concocted and created the notion of love, to facilitate the continuity of marriage and inheritance. [this whole bit is real shit from the sociologist giddens, though i'm sure i fucked it up a lil]
you see, no neanderthal ever said to another that he loved her, in english or whatever nasal monosyllabic language used at that time. he just goes out there and clobbers unconscious the female he most sexually desires, drags her back to his cave and shags her silly. it is the innate and intrinsic sexual lust in us that compels us to have sex and reproduce -the way intended by our creator for propagation of any species. we have biological clocks and cycles and when it tells us it's time to fuck, we fuck. that's how families are founded. the female submits to this outrage either because she realises that the male was an excellent provider (maybe he was the strongest and could hunt well) and would make a good partner to help raise her offspring, or she was just too plain weak (physically and mentally) to resist a beefy tarzan shovin his torpedo inside her abyss because she finds out for the first time it feels good to be fucked.
why is there the practice of oral sex in the modern era? do you think cavemen and tribal women gave each other head in the old days? i have nothin to substantiate this, but i think not. they were busy makin sure their crops grew well or somethin. oral sex, as an expression of love or affection, is a social construct (which doesn't produce life). just like kissin. ask any whore about kissin and they'll tell you they'd let you shove anythin inside their cunt for a tenner but they'll freak out at the act of kissin. or watch julia robert's pretty woman. kissin, is accepted to be a form of expression of romantic love, even more so than fuckin.
you can probably see where i'm gettin at by now. love, with all its apparent real-ness, is merely another social construct.
however, love is accepted to be real because everyone subscribes to it. we accept that it is natural, and society and established norms dictate to us since young through its various agents that we are human and we fall in love. that's what we do, we fall in love. we concede the validity of notions such as the necessity of dating to meet potential suitors, the ensuin process of courtship, the exchange of sweet, everlastin promises and the consummation of all these -the institution of marriage. in other words, since you be five years old, since you be watchin wilma, fred, bam-bam and pebbles, and every other happy american family on the media, you be mindfucked from start yo.
the central theme which binds these points is that we will do whatever it takes to validate our lives and we are unconsciously plugged into the matrix of accepted social behaviour. extrapolate this vicious graph and you will see that we are actually told and taught to fall in love, somethin which never existed until we validated it collectively.
so the next time you figured you're gonna marry your boyfriend because you love him and he's The One, remember that although you meant it, and that you could very well end up in a happy marriage until your dyin day, remember that love is just the most powerful man-made creation to facilitate your mid-life, your worldly wants and the birth of your kids. it's all about relevance and security e.g. if your husband goes off to war, turns MIA, leavin you with three kids and no dough, chances are you'll need another man to facilitate your life. life must go on but your MIA man has become irrelevant. he cannot support you or your kids and there is no father-figure for your kids to look up to. he cannot satisfy your sexual needs nor alleviate your emotional anxieties because you have no idea whether he's still alive, let alone whether he'll ever return. your matrimonial vows, till-death-do-us-part's, love-you-forever-and-a-day's and your weddin photos are now effectively redundant because it doesn't put food on the table, it doesn't put a penis in your vagina and it doesn't give your kids a dad to call their own when talkin to their friends.
it's not your fault, really. you've never really been in love.
ciao.
[watch out for another excitin installment of this train of thought -The Theory Of Availability, a further underminin at the realness of love.]

So which girl spurned you this time? I felt abit left out reading the last bit of your article, cause obviously you were talking to some tart in particular. Or probably all pussies in general. Whatever the case, my spidey sense was tingling "bitter, bitter, bitter". But i've been known to confuse that sense with the other tingling in my loins, so i won't harp on the reasons why you wrote it. But let's all sit down and chat about the content ok...
Right, i'm no huge fan of the concept of love either. Me, i always thought that the purpose of man from the moment the umbulical chord was cut was to fuck a woman. As babies, we instictively suck on nipples, a need that never goes away. And when we were kids, it was always the boys who were pulling up the skirts so they can havva a peek at the knickers, you never saw girls pulling down any pants now do you. Face the facts of life, scissors will cut, glass bowls will hold fish, and guys just want to have sex.
And oh by the way, you said that the concept of love started in the 18th century, some might point out ancient history, Helen of troy and how her husband led a nation to war to rescue her. How gallant. Ah the male ego. That was no act of love, i bet menelaus would go equally mental had paris kinapped the gardener. That was an act of gorilla chest thumping and establishing the alpha male. Which eventually leads to deciding which man has the most booty, so in the end we know what its all about.
That's man. Woman, now we would think that the natural intict of women is to propogate and nuture. Thought i had it all figured out that they like sex as much as us ... so whats their fascination with queers then?? Go figure ... (love?)
Wonderfully crafted piece again. Well done.
If a person were of a weak standing in terms of the 'upstairs', you would have the person hooked line and sinker.
But here's the thing. This is not a thoroughly researched opinion once again. So bear with me and watch for the merits of debate.
I call it 'Evolution'. We have evolved from mere primates to what we are today. Capable of all sorts of nonsense. We have evolved physically, mentally and spiritually. Plain and simple.
There have been many studies, I'm sure there are, I'm unable to name them right now. But even in Business Studies, in terms of marketing, there is a study of human behaviour(generally) and in comes the 'oh so famous' Pyramid of Needs. I'm sure that that's not the official term for it. But, right now, I don't really give a shit, as long as you know what I'm talking about.
Primarily speaking, our primal need still ranks at the top ie our need to survive(which include food and shelter. If I'm not mistaken, clothing as well, but I think humans would be just fine without them. However, the need to ensure survival of the species would be ranked at the top as well). It is a primal need which can drive a perfectly well balanced person to do the most heinous of things. Typically 'Love' comes in later in the pyramid. But does that lessen its importance? Of course it does! But it what terms? (We can live without it. It does not physically kill a man like a gunshot to the heart would.)
But does that render it non-existent? I think not.
It ties in with our primal need to survive - one way to do that is to seek to reproduce to ensure survival of the species and as real as the 'primal' need is, just as Glasshalls mentioned, that is how real 'love' is.
Think about it. People have been driven to do heinous things if not even more(heinous) so in the name of 'love'. John Lennon was killed and although there are a lot of reasons thrown up for the murder; the killer was found to have the book 'Catcher in the Rhye' and inside he wrote that Lennon was too beautiful to live in such an ugky world...or something to that effect.)
Humans have evolved spiritually, as with evolution, one is capable of more and as such one needs more. One reason may be to further evolve, another would be just to satisfy a hunger which now needs more than just 'rice'. Now a human needs(or wants) the Chicken Curry and Carrots on the side. Excuse my sad excuses for metaphors here...but bear with me, as real as the 'rice' is, so are the chicken curry and carrots.
We can live without them. Rice would do just fine. But does it render them to be non-existent and just figments of man's creation to continue to survive?
So I suppose, your line of argument 'should' have been, do we really 'need' love per se? But if you really believe that 'love' does not exist and is not 'real'. Then that renders many other notions non-existent. Things like loyalty to your fellow brother(which you happen to treasure, do you not?) Honour. Pride, ego.
All in all, you seem to be pulling a phylosophical question as well, ie the "If a tree fell in the woods, but nobody heard, saw, felt or tasted(if tht were possible - I'm jsut going through all of our senses) the tree fall...did it really fall?"
You seem to be saying something to the vein of, if love never existed to begin with. Does it exist now? This type or debate can go on till the cows come home and go off and come home again. It's pointless. If this is the vein you're trying to argue at. (At least, that's wht I think.)
Bottom line, if you go on believing 'love' is just a figment of man's stupid imagination - you'll go through your life rather miserably and this is not what I'm worried about - just that when you meet someone who'd be willing to sit through and live through all your crap - you'll make her life a living hell as well. And that ain't fair. No way, no how.
