"Casual sex" here means "engaging in sex with someone you're not in a relationship with." (That doesn't mean cheating, but that you're not in a relationship with anyone at the time, including the person you have sex with.)
I have no problem with it on principle. There can be instances where it's a bad decision, but I don't think that's always (or even mostly) the case. For me, if both parties are honest and are just seeking enjoyment of each other with no ulterior motives or hidden issues, there's nothing wrong with it.

Yeah, I can't do casual. That whole "body is a temple" thing? I meant that. Worship isn't casual. If I don't love and trust someone and they don't love and trust me... I kind of feel sick trying to do anything with them. I'm glad I started to pay attention to that before going all the way. That would have been bad.

Amen...
Perfect way of putting it...

I don't see it as a minus mark on anyone I know if they have it. Way to go them, if they're happy with it. Having had a negative experience, I'm not incredibly OK with doing it myself, though. Kind of like skydiving in that respect.

Emma - I hate to say it, but she should in no way go on that holiday, as an older mum, the child is already more at risk from congenital defects, so theres no way she wants to go upping the risk factor. the babies health isn't worth it.
Does she not have holiday insurance? she wouldn't get all of the cash back, but mine i think gives you 80% or something like that, enough to get herself a decent holiday to a none tropical disease ridden country. Then they can plan the mega trip to where ever it was when they sucessfully get the kid to 18 and still living(and off their hands!)
If they don't, enjoy your trip sweetie, and to pay her back (somewhat) buy her a week or two in a health spa/retreat thing.
You know, she has just phoned me and told me that she has decided not to risk it. Since her holiday insurance won't accept pregnancy as a valid reason for cancelling.... I'm getting the holiday of a lifetime! I still can't believe it! It sounds out of this world. Two weeks in Madagasca, most of it with my own personal jungle guide and private plane and snorkel equiptment for the coral reefs! Oh wow! It's in 3 weeks, 4 days after my work deadline so I'm gonna be a little... INSANE for a while! I have to get all my jabs! I've told my friend that I am in a position to pay him back with interest for all the help he's given me with my project (if he can get his passport renewed in time!) and he's a bit gobsmacked!
I'll never be able to pay her back, ever! If she ever needs a kidney she can have mine. Hell she can have both! I'm literally shaking with excitement. It's all like a beautiful dream!
Sorry not to be commenting on all the wonderful imponderables of hickeys and love spots etc, I'm a bit overexcited at the moment! I'll come back later when I've calmed down.

I don't think that there is anything wrong with hickeys,if noone in the party minds them then knock yourself out. I have encountered people who think that they show complete disrespect for the person who gets the hickey which is their opinion I guess.
On the love spots, anywhere near the ears neck region I'm complete jello.
I know that there is no way I would be able to have casual sex with anyone at anytime, but if both people know what they are getting themselves into then go have fun.

Disrespect?
*clears throat*
TMI warning...
How exactly is giving me massively pleasurable orgasms disrespectful?
K, I know not everyone works that way. But I do. I would be pissed at anyone who didn't work my neck/shoulders/collarbones for all they were worth!
Moving on...
Emma, congrats! I can't wait to hear about your treks through the jungle! I'm glad this whole situation seems to be working out well; your sis gets her baby, you get a fabulous holiday, and she gets a kidney if she ever needs one!

Body as a temple...hmm. I can see that. My body is a temple to Dionysus (or Bacchus, if you prefer).
Emma, I missed posting this earlier, but congratulations! Auntie Em, eh?

Sorry about your question, Rose, I forgot to say I was off to sleep when I last posted.
Having read the other posts and thus found some more background info...... I'm sorta split. I must admit, I'm of the opinion that if I were to see a hicky I would probably say, 'what happened are you ok?' to the embarassment of everyone involved. And if I recognized it beforehand, well... it does come off as a way of showing off, inspiring all the folks who see it to make their own opinions about what happened... I think i'd prefer to not see them.
However, I stand by my previous post that, in american society there is this rediculous dualism, that on every webpage, on every street corner and advertisement, sex is in some way advertised, and folk, myself included, have grown so insensitive other humans that we dont want to know how their actual sexual lives are like, but we put up with these imaginary ones from the media.
Go figure.
