Has the sexual revolution been abandoned and replaced by loss of freedom for men?

#metoo and the attempted crucifixion of Brett Kavanagh have wanted to impose such morality on men without expecting the same of women.

There was a time when relationships were about respect, communication and caring …….....

Brigitte Helm was an iconic movie star in Europe who gave it all up to be a mother: https://freedom-demokrasi-and-civilised-humanity.com/2019/01/10/fritz-langs-metropolis-a-metrosexuality-that-nobody-needs/

Yes for thee, but not for me.

Possibly? What I do think is that it will ultimately create a de facto conservative sexual morality. It will (or may already be) perceived as too much of a risk to life, career, and reputation.

#metoo??

So # is the pound sign

So it ‘means pound me too’, right?

Being that “civilized” is misspelled, I am guessing that this is either from a Brit site.. or a Canuk site..

It hasn't been good for men.
But it hasn't been good for women either.

The Sexual Revolution just hasn't worked out -- but the Liberals in the media and entertainment world keep insisting that it's a wonderful thing, so a lot of people can't imagine life without a constant emphasis on sex. This is one of the ways we get manipulated.

Actually, it’s even worse than that.
The original headline is, “FREEDOM, DEMOKRASI AND CIVILISED HUMANITY.”

If you are with someone you love, sharing a piece of bread can be wonderful. If you have a cornucopia available to you, but you aren’t with someone you love, it’s just dinner.

yes, what is wrong with getting to know (not in the biblical sense) each other before jumping into the sack and doing the most intimate thing two people can do, sometimes when they've only met an hour ago?

It brings tears to my eyes when I watch the movie Return To Me and the David Duchovny character asks Mini Driver if he can hold her hand.

Every time I think of what life will be like when Alzheimer's takes Mrs. Dad from me I cannot imagine life in this society with superficial relationships and quick sex. But that is probably just me.

Sure, but that train has long left the station. This country will never be back there.

Ironically, the #metoo movement is reacting against the sexual climate created by the likes of Hugh Hefner, Alfred Kinsey, Robert Guccione, et. al. Their reaction is not against an earlier society influenced by the Legion of Decency and Anthony Comstock. They are opposing the permissive society of mid century and thereafter, not so called Victorian morality.

Here it is, typos and all. NOT on excerpt-only list. Not sure if it is even worth the click. You all decide.

Next time, put some context or I recommend you don’t post. FR is giving you this space for free, not to abuse with clickbait.

Fritz Lang’s Metropolis: A Metrosexuality that Nobody Needs?

Is Fritz Lang’s Metropolis a film about a metrosexuality that nobody needs?

Does the film suggest urbanisation makes healthy life impossible?

In Fritz Lang’s cinematic story of one man’s giant industrial mega-city, the beautiful religious figure Maria, played by 18 year old BrigItte Helm, is pure and caring and gives hope to many people by her faith in fraternity and communication. But then Maria’s physical likeness is stolen to empower a robot who is first presented as an erotic dancer for the rich and who then, under orders, uses manic sexuality to lead people to conflict and destruction.

While still a movie star, BrigItte Helm told one critic that she didn’t care about making movies and she would rather be a housewife, cooking, bringing up her children and looking after her husband. She went to court at great cost to fight for the right not to be forced to play vamps and retired from cinema and moved to Switzerland in disgust at the Nazi takeover of the German film industry.

So in real life Helm wanted to be the motherly Maria not the destructive seductively malevolent dancing Machine imitating Maria.

In modern western nations the sexual liberation of the 1960’s and following decades has given way to the moralistic crusades of the #metoo movement which attacks and destroys men but not women for their sexuality.

Do we want a return to a much more conservative sexual morality imposed on men or do we want gender equal sexual freedom for everyone?

Right now I don’t think many people in The West know what we want with respect to that question.

BrigItte Helm had no doubts about how good it was for her to be a mum.

Geoff Fox, Malang, East Java, 10th January 2019, the 92nd anniversary of the release of Metropolis.

If you want to be free and free of them, then just walk away from them. Their method of control assumes that a man will never do this.

Leave them alone until they grow a brain and some character, or until they cease to exist.

A person only has as much power over you as you give them, so don’t give them any.

I am scared to do this, but I shouldn’t be. It is the truth.

If you believe in God and his word, then you know that, as our creator, he knows what is best for us. His way is the way of light and when we disobey, or sin, we walk in darkness - the way of death and eternal destruction.

Sexual activity outside of marriage (between a man and a woman) is sinful. The Bible calls it fornication or immorality. If you indulge in it, accept it, think its okay, think its funny, you are sinning. There is an element on this forum that seems to promote conservative values on the one hand, but on the other hand does a lot of “boys will be boys - wink wink nudge nudge” sexual promiscuity promotion on the other hand.

As a Christian, I know I am a sinner too. I certainly don’t think I am better than anybody else. When I sin, however, I am not proud of it, nor do I make jokes about it - I try to not do it again. It’s hard.

The good news is God’s mercy - the atoning blood of our savior on the cross. But we must not willfully trample in that blood with our self-indulgence.

Here’s a quote from Tim Keller: “If you were a hundred times worse than you are, your sins would be no match for his mercy.”
