What is "perverted"?

Ask a hundred different people, and you'll get a hundred different answers.

Some will say that oral sex is "perverted", indeed, there are laws in the books in some States making it illegal.

Others will find that a little "dirty talking" while having sex with your spouse is indicative of a perverted mind.

Some people like to have sex with the lights on, I know a more than a few people who think that is disgusting. Forget about masturbation, even mutual masturbation while engaged in the sex act with your spouse, some believe that you'll go to hell for doing that.

In fact, I know people to whom sex beyond the woman on her back, eyes closed, unduring quietly while the man "has his wey with her" is sick, and perverted.

I am certain that under someone else's definition of sexual perversion, you fall right in, I know I do.

The point here is your definition of "perverted" versus mine.

Real simple; sex between consenting adults...to each their own.

Sex with farm animals, corpses or children...you can feel free to call them perverts, and I will join you.

To me, consentual sex between adults, whether or not that sex is within societal norms (and not forbidden by civil law) does not for "perversion" make.

Sinners? No doubt...we all are.

Immoral? In this aspect, yes.

"Perverts"? I don't see them that way.

Most people would agree that regular sex with multiple partners is pretty perverted. It's also makes them more likely to catch STDs, some of which (like herpes) are not curable. And several hundred posts ago, someone asked such an astute question: if everyone's so proud of that kind of lifestyle, how come so many of them take pains not to let the children know? One can assume only one reason: shame. I find that especially telling. I'm not talking about getting into the play-by-play details of the sexual act--these people don't want their children to know even the basics, that "mommy" and "daddy" have sex with many other people. They're ashamed of what they do on some level or other, but not morally strong enough to do something about that shame.
