  %TABOO SEXUAL PLEASURE ACKNOWLEDGE CONFESS ADDICT 900907

     When  sexual  pleasures  are taboo people  cannot  in
healthy  ways acknowledge sexual pleasures  to  themselves
and  to  each other,  and so cannot enjoy  each  other  in
sexual relationships.

     When  sexual  pleasures are taboo  people  cannot  be
honest  about sexual pleasures to themselves and  to  each
other,   and so engage in collusive games of  mutual  self
deception which undermine personal and communal integrity.

     When  sexual  pleasures are taboo  people  cannot  be
honest  about  sexual pleasures,  and so people slip  into
addictive  and  codependent patterns of  dishonest  sexual
relationships,   which  then slip into  related  addictive
patterns of thoughts, attitudes, beliefs, and actions.

     When   sexual  pleasures  are  taboo  people   cannot
communicate honestly about what they want and do not  want
within sexual relationships, and people slip into coercive
and  manipulative  sexual relationships,  in part  due  to
their  ignorance  about each other's sexual pleasures  and
displeasures.  In the extreme,  sexual relationships drift
towards and into rape.
