Society and our parents are only significant in building the foundation of our values but after that, we should take control in fortifying it.

My boyfriend asked me if we could do threesome.  I concur with very much hesitation because I love him.  He then asked me if I have a friend who would like to be our third wheel.  Again with hesitation I felt obliged.  When we did it, I felt awful especially when I saw him doing it with my friend.  I thought it would be just for once but it occurred many times.  I do not like it but I keep on giving in.

That was an account of one caller in a radio program (by Mo, Mojo, and Grace Lee) that I have tuned in to this morning.  It is not a unique story to tell these days.  Threesomes are becoming a sexual variance that younger people would want to experience.  There is really nothing to panic about and ask or look for opinion from others because it is a preference or choice.  So when the DJs heard about the story, Mo and Grace agreed that the woman should seek professional help.  However, Mojo called the woman “stupid”.  That is something that made Mo protested.

“Stupid” is indeed a harsh word.  One must have a very good reason to use it.  Mojo used it to describe the woman’s behavior because he said that she has all the choice but instead she keeps on doing something that she even claims unlikeable.  Mo disagreed and wanted Mojo to take his word back.

What word would best describe the woman’s behavior?  Absurd, ridiculous, or senseless might be less offensive but the essence is still the same.  The woman is old enough to distinguish right from wrong, even if she take her own perspective and not of the society, which would expectedly judge it as morally wrong.  She did not like it.  That is enough reason to avoid the scene.  Yet, she continued.  Giving love as the reason why she did it made it even more “senseless”.

We have our own morals.  We have our own standards.  More often than not, these overrule society’s standards or morals because we are adults who have the faculties of making choices.  We know our personal boundaries, so if ever we cross over them, we should not blame anyone else or society for doing it.  Society and our parents are only significant in building the foundation of our values but after that, we should take control in fortifying it.

I don’t want to use “stupid” on the caller but yes, she is “senseless” in doing something that she does not like.  Calling and sharing her sexual activity on radio and seeking for opinion on something that she absolutely knows the answer is stupid.   Hoooops, I mean “senseless”.
