There’s a scene from Doctor Who that I adore, where Bill, the Doctor’s first openly lesbian companion is in a cave with some Ancient Romans, and when she thinks she so futurey and gonna blow their minds by telling them she is only interested in girls, they laugh in confusion and basically say they think her prudishness of only being sexual with women, as they have no such hang ups and go where their sexuality inspires them to go based on their affection for the person, is adorably quaint and smallminded.
IMHO we’re the backwards ones with all of our hangups, modesty, and need to declare/define the walls we’ve made. I’ve never stopped cringing since I read about humans that knew better than to wall off and hyper-scrutinize their sexuality, a massive part of who we all are whether we’ve been successfully taught to be ashamed of it and ourselves as current culture demands or not.
Imagine chasing bliss in plastic shit consumerism while denying and being encouraged to be ashamed of your built in capacity for it. 2 steps forward, 2,000 steps back.
