Thoughts of Sex at Sunset....

The sun has just finished setting. And right before it is gone all the birds seem to rush back for one more bite before the dark.

I was sitting there watching and one of the second batch of Blue Bird babies came ate a few worms then left. Then Skinhead arrived and ate. Skinhead has feathers that do not seem to fit atop his head and gives him the appearance of being bald. Skinhead was from the first batch, and the only one that stayed around or was not run off, and helped with the second batch. Then two of the second batch came with Teal, their mum and ate.

After she left I was thinking about how during the time of child rearing and breeding Blue (teals mate) is never far from Teal if not beside her. But for the rest of the year rarely are they together. They are in the area, but each seemingly doing their own thing. Dont get me wrong, if another male comes along Blue will run him off in a second, if Teal does not herself.

All their young from this season are young adults now and are not dependent on their parents at all. They are still around but in time will drift to their own territories. They might even stay together through the winter.

These birds have sex to procreate. It is their job and there is a season for it.

I have always said I look a lot to nature for answers. I then thought about dogs and heat and how all behavior changes when a female is in her cycle. Animals have times they have sex. They have sex for continuation of the species.

In the animal world when there is not a female ready to have babies there is no sex for sexs sake or enjoyment.

Then I progressed to man. What if man were a bird and only cared about sex a couple of months of the year? For the other months all he cared about would be friendship at most. Wouldnt that be an interesting life. I thought maybe the women would be in danger during the two months, but heck they are the ones whos hormones are driving them to give birth. Maybe it would be the men that were in trouble. And in a lot of species it is the woman that chooses her mate. Or the strongest male wins the right to breed. I could see it now, televised sexual Olympics for the right to have sex.

After further thought, something crossed my mind. The bible and most religions say premarital sex is wrong. That sex should be between only married people. In an earlier blog I talked about a rite or celebration does not a marriage make. And in nature, there are no ceremonies of public rites of marriage even though some mate for life.

Then I asked myself if man were not to enjoy sex with those he loved, why would we be able to be aroused anytime? Why would the female also be able to be aroused anytime? How can it be wrong when it is our nature? Why can the female conceive all year long?

I am not saying go out and have sex with every person you meet, although I tried to in the free love days. But I am saying that if god, or the creator of all this had not intended for man to enjoy sex, why can women have orgasms? Why can we be aroused anytime? Why is intimacy so intense right after sex? What a gift intimacy is. It is the glue that bonds and brings us closer together.

Animals do not lie in each others arms and share intimacy after the act. In fact for some, it is deadly. When the act is over so is their lives. Black widow spiders and salmon for example. For an animal it is a physical act. For man though it can be emotional, loving, and so much more with the right person.

How can sex be wrong between two people that genuinely care for each other? Rape is wrong. But I cannot see any reason or justification of having to be taxed and papered before having sex. The cave man didnt there was no church. No licenses. Ultimately are we all bastards?

No witty ending to this. It was just something I was pondering. Maybe I ponder too much. I just believe that if it is in a creatures nature it cannot be wrong.
