Would you?

So, what you are saying is, you'd prefer to let someone you love die (mum, dad, sibbling or best friend).

Ok. What if it's your partner? What if she will die? Would you prefer to let her die or to let someone else have sex with her for 15 minutes?

World peace will never happen so my answer is still NO even to the one that IC posted.

Yes I would rather die or have them die before I let them sleep with someone.

Again world peace will NEVER happen.

Again my opinion and feelings even if it's not part of the norm but I am not going to change how I feel just because I get crap for my posts.

I didn't say world peace. I said you'd watch a family member die or your partner die.

You said you'd rather watch a family member die or watch them die or die yourself.

Disagreement is not shit, JD. It's just disagreement.

Disagreement is fine but I refuse to be berated like Tru is getting. That type of crap isn't cool, that's why I posted what I posted.

Berated??

Show me the berating. Explicitly. Show me what is being done to berate tru.

Thank you for saying this. It is grounded in reality and I, for one, appreciate that.

I am not sure what the original question was supposed to gauge i.e. jealously levels; altruism levels; perceived "ownership" of a partner, their bodies and their decisions; people, especially women being expected to sacrifice themselves or others for the good of humankind; or to what lengths are you willing to go if world peace was even a reality.

If world peace was so simple as to be attained by one sexual encounter, given the sexual freedoms and sexual slavery we have today, we should be oozing peacefulness. But, people being people complicate even the simplest of things. And, love and sex have caused more wars than they have solved. Hence the reason I would want an iron clad, irrevocable contract.

But, back to fantasy land, if world peace was even possible, and if we changed the variable necessary to achieve it, one has to wonder if people would be so quick to jump on the bandwagon.

I view these questions in line with "if you were a tree, what kind of tree would you be and why"

Obviously, I'm not a tree and I can never be turned into one. But its an imteresting question and I love playing the game "what if." Its a game I play often with partners:
"What if you could only communicate with a nose flute? How would you do that?"
People I generally get on with and have fun with come up with all kinds of different and creative answers.
People I tend not to click with tend to answer "thats stupid. Why would that even happen? Why are you even asking me this? It's nonsense."

It's a thought experiment. And people explain their choices.

It's not up to me, to LET anyone do anything. I said I don't share well with others, there's a lot of pain for me involving that very issue and I can't get past it. I'm sorry, my answer is still NO.

I totally agree with the letting thing. And I've had people cheat on me and it is painful. I don't see this as cheating or sharing, I suppose. In my head it's only "what someone would do to prevent death of someone I love."

To you it's something else. I'm not sure I understand because death of my mom would trump having to comfort my partner from having to have sex with an idiot (and I'd be buying them flowers and chocolates for the rest of my days in thanks for their selfless act of help) but I accept that somehow you see it different. I'd love to understand why someone would think that way but I won't ask as it appears to be a sore point.

Thanks for answering

It is very painful to talk about and thank you for recognizing that. I appreciate it. I don't want to discuss this any further and thank you for not asking me to.
