Re:Human sexual behavior

Hidden discreet sexual behavior is a byproduct of society's insistance that normal primate sexual behavior is
wrong. The effect of this, trying to fit man into a moral mold where he genetically doesn't fit produces results such as societial anxiety and other byproducts.

This has been so since man's awarness of self and it's
taking upon itself certain doctrines such as morals that do not accept primate behavior as a plan.

In other words if man was totally indiscreet in sexual behavior since his dawn, then prostitution,rape,homosexuality would not exist and public masturbation and intercourse in public would be normal as would be in keeping with our 98.9% primate genetic makeup.
As it is now, only the sexual part of what we believe is the 2.1% of our genetic behaviour is accepted in the mold.

To place your description on the proper stage, then you can visualize it going on in a public square instead of a room, then you would have normalcy in it's proper form for our species. Of course the thought causes us to cringe, or bring on disgust because the moral cloak or victorian values we choose to don since birth gets in our way. If we transpose the act and say they were drinking water then the effect isn't the same, we say "so what".

It is my belief that it is possible to accept the primate sexual mold, and still be human in it's true definition with eventual positive effects being the result.
Sexual activity would then be as common place as drinking at a water fountain.

Initially, of course one could expect a million years of pent up desires being released at one time, society throwing off a false cloak, but the transisition would dissipate after a few years.

Any therapy to try to steer the patient to a behavior that is acceptable to society only, is trying to fit the individual into the societal mold once again, but not trying to fit the behavior of the true primate self.

You are asking an opinion of a behavior that itself is a manifestation of society not accepting a sexual norm.
