The Search For Passion

"There is more wisdom in your body
than in your deepest philosophy."
- Friedrich Nietzsche

 

At one point during our valient search for the good life, while your trusty LiveReal Agents were busily combing the globe for practical answers to many eternal (and a few, um, short-term) human questions . . .

- our trail suddenly opened into a vast expanse - a chasm, even, you might say - revealing huge stretches of wild, primal, uncharted, and largely unexplored (though strangely, much-talked-about) territory . . .

. . . something that made us suddenly realize that this search might take us into some embarrassing regions, of which we can state with complete confidence that we really know or understand very little about . . .

. . . our own sex lives.

 

Umm, at this point, we realized that this search of ours might potentially, well, take us into some embarrassing territory.

Yet, being the hardy, swell folks we are, we pressed on. We had a job to do.

(- well, that, and we couldn't find a bathroom.)

So then, the way we see it, there are two options:

1. Don't talk about it.
2. Talk about it.

   We figure, while it might not be for everybody, but for our purposes here . . . we're not going to get much figured out, really, unless we talk about it.

Sometimes a bee
and a flower
is just a bee and a flower.
. . . and sometimes
it's not.

 

The Goal of the LiveReal Sexual Arena

is pretty straightforward:

Take a topic that every person deals with, most people think about, few people talk about, and almost no one really understands, and use any means possible (well, almost) - to get to the heart of the matter.

While sexuality is probably the most private, inner, sensitive areas of our lives, that touches on the deepest parts of our being, it actually seems a little strange that it is also one of the topics least talked about, in a real sense. Our goal is to talk about it

 

"The discussion of the sexual problem is,
of course, only the crude beginning of a far deeper question,
namely, that of the psychic of human relationship between the sexes.
Before this later question the sexual problem
pales in significance."
- Carl Jung

I, am a picture.

We will address and explore

such topics as:

• What is sexuality?
• If sex is "bad," why does it really seem so "good"?
• If sex is "good," why is it often involved with so much that's "bad"?
• What is the best role for sex in life?
• What can be done to alleviate unnecessary confusion and suffering surrounding the topic?
• What is the relationship between sexuality and spirituality?
• If (say, hypothetically), a person wants to live a real, deep, true, passionate, loving, heart-pounding, knuckle-gripping, head-throbbing, stomach-churning good life . . . what role does sexuality play in the matter?
• . . . and much more

Our intention is to explore these issues using conscious and deliberate inquiry, common sense, open-mindedness, to host a wide assortment of "experts" in the area, see what makes sense/feels right and what doesn't...

- and then, everyone decides for themselves.

Whooa Bessie, now that's a picture!

 

* Note: The Sexual Arena is intended only for adults over the age of 18. The reason for this is that we explore the topic in very real, sometimes unavoidably graphic detail, and every respectable authority on the matter that we've found agrees that no individual should explore this area until they are mature enough to handle it.

(Of course, how many people over the age of 18 are really able to handle it is still a topic under consideration . . . but hey, we do need to try to stay in business here.)

 

"The reproduction of mankind
is a great marvel and mystery.
Had God consulted me in the matter,
I should have advised him to continue the generation of the species
by fashioning them of clay."
- Martin Luther

"The whole business of eroticism
is to strike to the inmost core
of the living being,
so that the heart stands still . . .
The whole business of eroticism
is to destroy the self-contained character of the participators
as they are
in their normal lives . . ."
- Georges Bataille
