@georgia :(
@patchuun okay the masochists can stay but they hurt women as a class
@georgia it's not masochistic women's fault men can't be responsible about it and let it get to their heads. anyway, women make better sadists than men 
@patchuun female sadism may be hot but like many hot things its adharmic
@Erato_Heti @patchuun are you really arguing that causing others pain for sexual gratification isnt against dharma
@georgia @Erato_Heti I mean, if the people having pain inflicted on them are themselves getting sexual gratification from it, I don't see why it would be...I don't see pain as having inherent positive or negative moral value, purrspective and circumstance matters a lot
but I'm not a dharmic religion girlie and don't know much about how sexuality and religion interact under hinduism so 🤷♀️

@patchuun @Erato_Heti if you read the bhagavad gita people who enjoy torturing themselves are considered to be highly tamasic (bad thing)
@patchuun @georgia @Erato_Heti what is considered adharmic/unrighteous is really gonna depend on who you ask. some people think being trans is adharmic so i mean. also hinduism and sexuality is a complicated topic cuz hinduism is like a million different philosophies wrapped up under one name which was given to them all by british colonists, which isn't to discount the value of grouping them together but i think it's important context
@unmind @patchuun @Erato_Heti @georgia I know for a fact shiva wants me to have wild violent kinky sex to wake the dormant kudalini energy within me;3
@GreyNA @Erato_Heti @patchuun @unmind westerners like crowley have perverted tantra tbh its usually not a sex thing and most tantric sex practices are pretty milquetoast and consist in controlling bindu or in channeling sexual energy for a purpose. there are exceptions but this is the norm.
@georgia @Erato_Heti @patchuun @unmind I really don’t think these practices are as dogmatic and literal as your taking them, but I don’t really know.
