Seeds

Tom Ball

    At about age 7, X was taking a bath. Whilst bathing he happened to put his finger in his belly button. He pulled out two specks of dirt, but in his innocence he thought them to be two seeds. After all he reasoned women are pregnant in the stomach, so a man would give his seeds to a woman and she would have the babies.
    So X carefully put his seeds on the sink. And he proceeded to splash around. But upon finishing his invigorating bath, he discovered that he had washed his seeds away.
    Tearfully he explained to his mother that he had lost his seeds, much to his mother’s amusement. However his mother didn’t explain the truth to him, just laughed.
    Now let me ask you, why is sex an issue which causes so much embarrassment for parents? Don’t most people enjoy sex?
    And why are children always treated like morons? You say that children are foolish and unwise because people look back on their childhood and feel it was foolish, but isn’t our adulthood foolish also?
    And of course adults (along with Hollywood) are often discoursing to teens about the importance of romantic love... They try to make sex into such a special thing... And now so many people around the world claim to be searching for a “soul mate”; this soul mate more often than not is someone who has never existed... In other words their standards are too high...
    In my view people need to get back to basics, and treat sex as a thing which is necessary to have almost everyday, like food or water. Just look at most animals; they don’t make a big deal out of it, but rather just do it.
