Selling sex to the masses

When a person is unaware of his/her spiritual self, true self; the physical world and experiences through the physical senses become their only “reality.”
Western societies are based on this premise. “If I cannot see it, I cannot believe it.” “If I cannot touch it, it does not exist.” Therefore, “it has been proven by science...that” becomes the mantra of the day.
Science deals with the physical world. Science has no authority over the meaning of life, the sense of beauty, or even to explain how immaterial thoughts can rule our material life. The understanding of human emotions is not scientific either. A pattern could be made up with a "sample" group, but a pattern does not fit reality, the unexpected, which is life in a nutshell.
Sex is no longer the way in which the human species reproduces. It has become more than that: For some, sex is equal to love. When 2 people love each other, they must have sex. The interesting side is that sex has the same capability to destroy a “loving” relationship. That which is considered love cannot be “hate” at the same time. This is called logic. Marketing sex does not work on logic. It works on hype.
Our society helps in this respect. Why shall I “own” a wife, when I can “lease “her? In this way, I can always “get out” and “upgrade.” Kids are a “by product” and my checking account can take care of my responsibilities.
Sex is about pleasure. My own pleasure. A “good life” is a life of pleasure. Things have to be “sexy” to sell. Something “sexy” is highly desirable. Young, new, cool, trendy, etc . are “sexy.” Responsibilities, tenderness, loyalty, care, etc. does not sell.
Celibacy is “bad” because it is not “natural,” is thought. Celibacy does not sell, because devices are not needed for it. It is easier to label it as “unnatural.” but yet; “natural” is to drink a can of carbonated, sugar loaded liquid (coke,) to eat greasy food at the nearby McDonald’s, to eat sugar loaded “doughnuts” and to smoke as many cigarettes as I am able to afford. It is “natural” because “most people do it.” The rule of the "mob" as Plato used to put it, is meaningless for a thinking/aware person.
Society has its own way to brainwash individuals. In the west, is called “business.“ You are worth something to me as long as I can sell you something. Sex sells. Celibacy does not. Remember that.
It takes guts and intelligence to get out of the “mental brainwash.” It is more comfortable to let “science” tell me what to do, to tell me what is “normal,” and to teach me to conform, by making me believe of my own individuality even though, to classify me and put me into a little box with a label is easier. Fashion does not work on “individuality.” At the end everyone dresses the same way.
Examples of marketing schemes? Let us not call those XXX movies “dirty movies,” rather “adult content.” Let me change the meaning of loyalty with the latest study which supports the idea that man is not monogamous. Yes, milk “does your body good” as long as I can sell it.
To be intelligent, a person needs to think by themselves and be open to different view points. There must be willingness to experience by yourself. That which science can prove is not called life, but a lab.
Reality is more than perceptions of the senses. To discover sex as it is without my own personal biases takes some intelligence. Hard to do when junk food is part of my diet. "Your diet affects your mind," science utters... “Tasting good” is a matter of getting used to it.
We cannot deal with sex as sex until our perception, our understanding and marketing brain washing is thrown out. Few have the guts to do it. It is much easier to conform...
