  1. Given that our Northern American attitudes towards sex can probably be traced to the Puritan morality of the settlers that first established themselves; it would be fair to say that our current sexual mores are still essentially based on Christian morality. That is they tend towards the patriarchal and can be somewhat misogynistic. There is still a prevailing attitude that females who take control of their sexuality, i.e. multiple partners, enjoyment of sex, etc. are somehow immoral, promiscuous or even "slutty". So the question I put forth is, should we as a society re-examine our attitudes towards sex in a non-religious context? And if we should, what type of framework would we use instead?

  3. What about sexuality and emotional attachment. We often here people say you are giving part of yourself away to a person when you have sex with them. Some people can hook up twice a day and feel no attachment while others hook up once and are hung up on that partner for years. Is this something with learn through observation? In what ways does the physical act of sex impact our psychology in regards to attachment?

  5. Ever read much Heinlein? He was into the free love movement. Sex in his books isn't tied up with guilt or shame or jealousy. Big influence on me as a teen, but monogamy is so important in this society that I think he must have been deluding himself

  6. Do Atheists make better lovers?
    and
    How bout the irony of an atheist making their lover scream for God?

    Should women scream scream out in the name of science instead?
