This makes me wonder what is considered abhorrent sexual behavior. i'm guessing anal sex. Or sex with lawn ornaments. hmmm I'm thinking plastic pink flamingoes and bird baths here....

Another thread got me thinking there is some knowledge I wish I didnt have,,,,just because I dont think it serves any positive purpose I know how to pick locks, but thats actually useful when I lock myself out of somewhere I am AWARE of many alternative sexual activities though, that I wish I wasnt, knowing about them serves no positive purpose in my life and they are actually disturbing to think about I wish I had never known heartbreak, because I know I would be more trusting if I hadnt,,, can you think of something you wish you had never learned? I wished that as a child,,I could have just been verbally told what NO,,and BAD,,meant w/o being SMACKED to form such a forceful appearance of its use.. I wished I had not witnessed that look of wild insanity in a drunks eyes, as to just see, one throwing-up,,would have been a much better example.. I wished I had not been beaten to think and believe that a black person was evil wicked and better off gone than close to me. Just to be shown that one of them thought enough about me, to save my life, and then,,know that all my teachings were invain, and insane..I learned LOVE OF PEOPLE THROUGH THEM LOVING ME. I wished I never knew compassion,for that was the key to my heart. I wished I had never met HATE,, so it would never have been seen. I wished I never was taught how to grow to be a man, raised by a boy I wished I was never taught how to cheat, tests need to be correct. I wished I never was shown truth, then lies could be seen as OK. I wished I didn't have to see death, in front of me to know, DEAD. I wished I didn't have such a good memory, to know about you and me I wished I wasn't taught, how to love through a womans eyes. I wished I was taught then, how to feel love on the inside. I wished I was not writing all this,but you see I'm very bored. I wished I had told all of you at its beginnings,,' That I can't WISH AWAY,,ALL THE THINGS, THAT HAVE MADE ME, "ME"! For its the Lessons wrong and good,,that I HAD TO CLIMB ABOVE. So that I could raise all my children, to know the right way to LOVE So tear this all down,,and throw it away.. Because all that we learn,,we MIGHT need it someday! Like me telling all of you,,I LOVE YOU,,and the NOT SO FUNNY THING ABOUT THAT IS,,,YOU KNOW,,,I REALLY MEAN THAT,,and I DO...

How bad the world really is (that isn't to say there isn't good in it).

No, I've enjoyed all the knowledge so far. But I have a terrible memory and engage in what could be considered abhorrent sexual behavior. This makes me wonder what is considered abhorrent sexual behavior. Not positive but I think it was Freud that said " the only abhorrent sexual behavior is none at all"

I don't believe ignorance is bliss. We need knowledge to grow.

I have been pondering this quite a bit since the topic was first posted... I've learned about or seen some really twisted stuff. Even seen some pretty nasty wounds that would make others sick. I've have some very dark thoughts in my lifetime as well. And yet, I can't think of a single thing that I wish I had never seen, learned, or known. There is stuff I wish never happened, but I don't feel regret for what I learned from them.

I worked for 13 years as a mental health counselor in forensic setting, mainly with sex offenders and abuse victims. You don't want to know what I have heard and seen, day in and day out.

I wish I had never know abuse by someone who claims they loved me. Makes me think that when a person (not friends or family) says they love you; that is just a joke or just a causual word like hello.

I wish that people stopped trying to warn me that there are dangerous people and things out there, I know it, I just choose to ignore it.

I made a boo boo calling my good friend the nursing home fairy. She gave me the raised eye brows. It did make me think of loosely using the word 'fairy' though. I mean I saw her girlfriend waiting for her in the dining room for her to get off work and I know she has two lovely daughters from her prior hetereosexual relationship. I had to do some quick thinking to let her know I was thanking her for doing work that normally our shift would do if we were properly staffed. It is like we are all mothering hens in our job and one use of the word 'fairy' can be construed as actually 'elves' in the Christmas sense. I wasn't saying she was gay. But that the expectations of the nursing home is great towards all of the workers in the sense that they must think there are fairies that magically can fulfill all of their expectations. In all reality we are just humans and not miracle or magical workers. can you think of something you wish you had never learned?
