Message: <blockquote data-quote="green slime" data-source="post: 991030" data-attributes="member: 1325">Such as encouraging young people to discover themselves what they think is appropriate behaviour in a relationship, thus creating a foundation for more serious, longer lasting, happier relationships, rather than forcing people to marry in relationships where neither party has any idea of what expectations/likes/dislikes the other has, making it all but impossible to find someone who is compatible (given the importance sex plays in the lives of us mere mortals), and has to spend the rest of their natural lives in misery/abuse?Bronwyn wasn't "cheating". She wasn't experimenting. She wasn't hazarding anybody's health or mental stability. It is no reflection on her character as to fidelity / faithfulness whatso ever. She was hardly "promiscuous". I hunger, I eat. I tire, I sleep. I desire nearness to one I love, we share a moment of time. These are basic human needs. I never solicitated promiscuous behavious for a Paladin. I just stated "open, caring relationships". The Old testamtent and Koran both allow polygamy (albiet only for men).  By your definition I can't see any LG society allowing any form of sexual "deviancy" at all, as it provides no "greater social purpose". Which IMO, is incorrect. The control of sex, and the control over women by social taboos and the like, was a way for certain individuals to perpetuate their power.  from pre-babylonian times, to the present. It has nothing to do with "good".On the other hand, I personally see no earth-bound society as being LG at all. It is a Utopia. However should a fantasy society be declared as LG, I see no great hindrance to it allowing certain sexual freedoms, within limitations. In fact, IMNSHO, such is to be expected in a society which allows females to be warrior-generals, and treats women as equals rather than simpletons that should cook, clean and provide cheap labour.</blockquote>
