Mature, mutually satisfied, healthy male and female ( Enlightened) relationships are usually people who do not intentionally control, manipulate, hurt or abuse each other.simplicity wrote: ↑Mon Nov 06, 2023 6:18 pmFor the same reason that taking drugs does.

Although that might work [momentarily] for the hedonist in us all, this path results in profound misery [look out any window for unlimited examples].
Why would a man and woman's capacity to give and receive mutual pleasure from each other, result in profound misery?
Sacrifice and the assumption of responsibility are the paths to contentment.
You cannot compare such a mutual respect between two lovers, with the effects of irresponsible drug taking... that's just a dumb uneducated guess to say the least.
I hardly doubt the bodies own naturally forming pleasure drug ''Oxytocin'' is capable of becoming a danger to the people experiencing it's effects.
Comparing it to drug abuse, is like telling a kid in a sweet shop not to touch or eat the candy because it's dangerous. So you're reply is just simply the most ridiculous thing I have ever heard in my life, tbh.
And what do you mean by ''sacrifice'' ...what's that got to do with a man and a woman who are wholly satisfied with each other?
