CELIBACY: The Oft Neglected Choice for a Better Life

Featured Replies

  • Popular Post

My Dearest Friends,

 

Would you not wish for a more stress-free lifestyle which is far easier to attain than conversion to vegetarianism, if only you had the encouragement to adopt it?

 

I am talking about a better way of life which can improve your wellbeing, one which requires little need for relinquishing your well-known passion for the consumption of charcoal-burned hamburgers or thick Kobe steaks.

 

I am speaking, now, for the first time on TV, about the important topic of Celibacy. 

 

Particularly, I am exhorting you to follow my lifestyle, and thereby improve your lives, immeasurably. 

 

I think you know that I have read a few topics on TV, concerning lovesickness, and all the heartache concomitant with it.  So many topics on TV involve love-related issues, and love gone wrong.

 

Everybody knows that guys here are sometimes hurting due to misplaced feelings of love.

 

Please let me tell you about my last and final experience with loving:

 

My last experience with loving is now foggy, yet it was the year 1999.

It was in the cab of an Isuzu truck, and I recall that we were driving through mountainous roads late at night, some place on an island province off the coast of China.

Pete Segar was playing in my head. We were getting hot and heavy.

She was a black-haired beauty with big dark eyes.

Funny how you remember the Isuzu, and the seats of the truck, sitting way up high.

We were parked above a cliff, with the Pacific ocean far below. 

Funny how we began humming a song from 1962, simultaneously.

Sweet summertime

I never used her, but she used me, workin’ on our night moves.

I woke that night to the sound of thunder. How far off, I sat and wondered.

Then, with autumn closing in, my memories of her were growing thin.

 

Where was I?

 

Celibacy.

 

I know that most of you, though not all of you, will recognize my escape from the yoke of hormonal servitude to my sexual need as being truly triumphant.

Am I being facetious?  Not at all.  I am free now, free as a bird, without any thoughts for birds, other than for my continued love for birds, if only platonically speaking.

 

If you want to truly be free, like me, free of the yoke of your uncontrollable hormonal passions, then do what I do, and do as I say.

 

Never give in to the call of the sirens, for carnal pleasure.  Instead, enjoy women’s company as you would the Bronte Sisters, all three or four of them, at once.

 

Believe me, you will be a happier man if you do.

 

Celibacy is a lifestyle which I highly recommend. I would not suggest this lifestyle to you if I had not personally practiced celibacy for more than 20 years, with positive results.

 

Take or leave my advice, if you will.  I am only asking that you first try celibacy for 20 years before reaching any final judgement.

 

You cannot, in good conscience, criticise a lifestyle unless you have first tried it.

 

Physical love is like chocolate ice cream. One scoop is never enough. One scoop leads to another scoop, and another, and another, and the next.

 

Where will these endless helpings of chocolate scoops ever end, unless one just swears off ice cream all together, and gets free.

 

I am free.

Free at last.

God almighty, I am free at last.

 

Wish you the same.

Complete Celibacy is the only way.

 

(Take just one scoop, and you will fall off the wagon of love, and be lost forever, maybe.)

 

Stay celibate, my friends.

Stay Strong!

In fact, lifestyle changes are not that difficult.

 

One can, for example, swear off chocolate pudding or crab cakes, for life, and reap positive consequences.

 

Don't just go with the flow if you think you might live a better life by finding a better way.

 

Celibacy is very underrated in our present culture.

 

Please do not knock it unless you have first tried it.

 

I have tried it, for 20 years.

 

Too have a topic to start the day with, beside many of us forced into Celibacy now whether we like it or not  because of the Covid situation not wanting to take the chance on the local lasses and it is hard to do without...

Good for you, each to his own. I have a good life with my wife and 2 kids. 

The more I take in Double G the more I kinda appreciate his presence here.

Unfortunately, I am 75 years old, so very unlikely to be able to try that. 
 

it does sound a great idea though ????

 

 

 

Not even a hand shandy?

I have tried it, unwillingly for more years of my life than not celibate. Some of those years were when I was living with women that should have been having sex with me, but refused.

IMO celibacy is un natural. No animal other than humans would be celibate from choice.

 

IMO celibacy is an abomination that causes such catastrophes as have happened in the Catholic Church.

A lot of divorced men on this forum will be nodding in agreement with that.

Error. I just looked up the definition of celibacy and according to google it's abstaining from sex AND marriage.

Also, forgive my ignorance but, is celibacy only abstinence from the actual act of lovemaking/fornicating or is it total abstinence from any form of “ pleasures of the flesh “ ?

Can 5 minutes with the Victoria Secret catalogue and a jar of hand cream be classed as “ falling off the wagon “ ?

No thanks, am receiving the benefits of giving up smoking years ago, receiving the benefit of giving up alcohol years ago, fit enough to enjoy good sex and will continue to do so ????

This is the same OP as the guy in love with a married Thai woman???

No conflict. He doesn't want to have sex with her. It is possible to be in love and not want to have sex, though most would have a problem with that.

And how does this reconcile w/your other post about your loins? And lusting after someone else's wife? 

 

Though the saddest part is getting Pete Seeger stuck in your head..

I can sort of understand the OP deciding on that life style.

 

But why preach / brag / crow about it to others. And want people do the same same.

 

Just do your own thing .. not preach. To be fair I guess forums read to view opposite thinking, so its entertaining to be preached at ..... errrrrr I think.

 

(Im veggie for 50 plus years .. never preached about it but some do).

 

If I had never married .... and later never gone near bar girls I would be very well off now.   So celibacy very good for your wealth.

 

But we owe it to ourselves to find as much pleasure / fun as we can. Its never pleasant at the end. Often very very unpleasant.

 

On a death bed I can imagine someone thinking ... I wish I had ferked more girls.

 

But cant imagine any one thinking ... jeez that cutie from Sexy Girls Go-Go .. I regret that one ... and all the other girls and fun times.  I was so stupid. Wish I had just watched TV every night.

 

Or I regret them girlfriends / wife nights of intimacy and passion, if non monger.

This is grade A deluxe trolling. 

Very funny, though.

If I had to pick a favourite line it's this one - 

"Instead, enjoy women’s company as you would the Bronte Sisters, all three or four of them, at once."

- but there a several other contenders.

 

Take a bow Mr. GG,  thanks for making me laugh out loud.

I never thought of that.  Your right.  He is probably one of those who gets a kick out of people taking it serious when he is talking rollocks / making it up.

 

The trouble being that normal people dont see the fun in being infantile and a smartarse.

 

He probably got an erection when reading we thought he was being serious.

 

Oh well ... he took me in.   (I am so young and innocent).

 

So your erection well deserved, sir. Enjoy.

 

Mind you ...  I only read the OP heading and peoples postings.  Durrrrrrrr.

 

So I blame the posters for being taken in.. ($mileee).

I think the OP's post is a bit missionary, but I also think he has some valid points.

 

Just a few generation back it was common that the path of the monk living in celibacy was a natural choice people had in their life.

 

Nowadays you become inundated in media, press, social media, school etc. with lovesickness, sexual longing, etc. etc. that some people whose nature is more to be alone and not in a relationship with a woman feel like there life is unhappy, unfulfilled, excluded from society, worthless, maybe even sick.

 

That is very sad and therefore I think it is good that the path of living in celibacy comes back as an option for those people who have this tendency. I think they will feel liberated and empowered to know that it is okay to live without a woman, without sex, without marriaae or a girl friend.

 

For most of civilisation the way of a monk was a choice, but now it has all but disappeared from the collective societal attention. But I think a life in solitude and silence living in your spiritual center would be an appealing choice to people who have this tendency.

 

But of course not for people who are married and have children and responsibility in their life.

 

It shouldn't be forced on anyone but it should be a valid and real option for anyone who has this tendency and not looked upon as something strange or weird but as one possible path of self-realization.

Confirmed. Got them on my iPod! 

Understand the point of view. Certainly, celibacy has been pointed to for centuries to allow a life less encumbered while focusing on the internal higher pursuits. Guess I have lived a more balanced life (just evolved). Most time after age 21 with a significant other but the were a couple of 4 years stretches when I lived alone, traveled alone (OK, few encounters during those times). No, I know myself very well, I enjoy sharing with a significant other. Hey, what can you expect from someone turned to being a lifelong educator?
