    Pagan Values: Informed Consent
    Pagan Values: Informed Consent
    Posted by: Makarios on Thursday, July 02, 2009 - 02:05 PM
    Opinions & Discussions <snip> Something about the amalgam of my training, being independent from my parents/out of their house at 18 and being given sex ed in the days of AIDS automatically being a death sentence makes me very conservative compared to my neopagan siblings. I enjoy pleasure, but hedonism is by no means my life highlight and will sometimes repel me, and since I’m not the sort to hange pentacles and knick-knacks all over my home, someone who wandered in would swear my life philosophy would have something about “clean living” in it.

    So, to informed consent:

    These are simply my morals, and how I apply them. I do ask people that I sleep with to engage in these practices with me - it is the price for the privilege of my body and company - but it’s no skin off my nose if other people don’t apply these. If I’m never going to sleep with you it doesn’t matter to me what you do as long as no one I care about gets hurt.

    I also have practiced sex magic for over a decade. No, it’s not the Great Rite or some Thelemic whosit, it’s simply using the energy that sex creates for magic using Wiccan methods of energy management. That stuff is NOT a magical child unless you want one. But I really absolutely believe that partner selection should be done with considerable thought and deliberation, rather than just jumping at a hormonal response. Hormones can lead to viable partners, but there’s a point where it’s time to lead the hormones. I really do believe that I take on some of the characteristics of whoever I’m sleeping with, and that I retain certain characteristics from every person I’ve ever slept with.
