Quote From: celh01What people do in private reflects in many ways on society as a whole.
People in positions where they can influence others can't keep thier beliefs 100% out of the things they say and do..It comes through..So I would have to say that, that is a legitimate statement.
Just take Movies , music and books as the biggest example, They are all a reflection of people's feelings and beliefs..And it is easy to see the influence in just the past 30 years..
What people think and feel and do in private, can change society for everyone.
What people think and feel and do in private, can change society for everyone.
Only to the extent that people force those beliefs or feelings onto others. And who is to determine WHAT is best for society? There are a lot of societal trends that I do not embrace. Some people choose a patriarchal family system where the husband is considered the "head of the household" and the ultimate decision maker....that is repulsive to me...but if someone else says they are happy like that...it is THEIR marriage and it does NOT affect my personal life...even if every neighbor on my street does it.
Of all the problems of our "society", why do sexual issues gather the most steam? I don't want to live in a society where people think they have the right to dictate the terms of other people's sex lives and marriages. The intrusion on people's personal lives, whether it be sex, religion, politics is not a change in society that I want to see gather momentum.
