The remarkable youth of 68 did not understand—nor did we, though we would grasp it soon enough—this truth: to demolish authority did not automatically mean the liberation of human diversity; it could mean, and this is what happened, freedom specifically for the animal spirits of capitalism, which had been stamping restlessly inside the iron cage of the social contract that the system had seen as an unavoidable cure for the years of revolution, crisis and war.

is there anything more bourgeois than sexless bureaucrats

Hahaha there really really isn't, if you ever read a Michel Houellebecq book it always starts with the sexless bureaucrat who then breaks free and has sex with a kid and a robot and does some sex tourism. Cause French people are aware of the breakdown of western society and soon we'll all have beautiful sex with each other as we die of global warming

asexuals were probably the best hunters, because they viewed hunting as an ends in itself, a craft to perfect for its own sake, rather than as a means to sexual satisfaction

PROBABLY NOT, because they lacked the passion thats required for the self sacrifice in difficult hunts. You need surplus to experiment, or super desperation

I just got back from the beach and it always bouys me to see the healthy, suntanned confidence that people have in their bodies.

I'm tempted to wear a burqa down there one day just to see the kind of reactions I get from these bikini'd and boardshorted beachgoers.

The same way everyone looks at the blacks guys at virginia beach, with their white girlfriends, who wear timberlands and sean john jeans and long sleeve shirrts and spend their time mean mugging seagulls -- sep

I can tell you the truth, people at the beach and in public don't care about you, they're having fun, if you look novel they'll look at you but you're only part of matte painting on their fun beach day

being a depressed weirdo whose level of maturity is permanently stunted to that of a 6 year old eternally playing with his lego set in his bedroom, doesn't make that person asexual, just a huge loser. there are no asexual people.

asceticism as an extenuation of hedonism is the absolute most disgusting and immoral form of self-absorption and fulfillment. the only correct practice of asceticism is to abstain from earthly pleasures, not for self-fulfillment but in order for one to better devote himself to God and Country in a battle against internal contradictions, cowardice and the moral degeneracy of the individual. strength and honor achieved through internal strife.

sawm (fasting), not zuhd (asceticism/monasticism)

Agreed.

while this is true, bodies were far more disgusting previous to 2012

yeah and it was liberating. a woman could exist in the 70s and regardless of what she looked like, she was still woman. she can't exist now.

The Prophet Muhammad said, “No one degrades women except vile and contemptible men.” Rumi says in his Mathnawi:

Made attractive to men is love of desires …
God has made [woman] attractive, so how can men escape from her?
Even if a man is Rustam and greater than
Hamzah, still he is captive to his old woman’s command.
The Prophet, to whose speech the whole world
Was enslaved, used to say, “Speak to me, oh ‘Aishah!...”
The Prophet said that women totally dominate men of intellect and possessors of heart,
But ignorant men dominate women, for they are shackled by the ferocity of animals.
They have no kindness, gentleness, or love,
Since animality dominates their nature.
Love and kindness are human attributes, anger and sensuality belong to the animals.
She is the radiance of God, she is not your beloved.
She is the Creator – you could say she is not created.

The 13th century Spanish scholar, philosopher, and mystic, Ibn Arabi, considered the most perfect contemplation of the divine in the world to be women. He writes:

In relation to the Prophet, women are as the Universal Nature is to God in which He revealed the forms of the Cosmos by directing toward it the divine will and command, which, at the level of elemental forms, is symbolized by copulation…. Whoever loves a woman in this way loves with divine love, while he whose love for them is limited to natural lust lacks all true knowledge of that desire. For such a one she is mere form, devoid of spirit, and even though that form is indeed imbued with spirit, it is absent for one who approaches his wife or some other woman solely to have his pleasure with her, without realizing whose the pleasure really is. Thus he does not know himself truly, just as a stranger is not known until he reveals his identity. As they say:

They are right in supposing that I am in love
Only they know not with whom I am in love.

Such a man is really in love with pleasure itself and, in consequence, loves its repository in women, the real truth and meaning of the act being lost on him. If he knew the truth, he would know whom it is he is enjoying and who it is who is the enjoyer; then would he be perfected.
