*Casual sex creates a void between self and one’s partner. This in turn leads to feelings<br />

of failure related to making meaningful connections with o<strong>the</strong>rs, which <strong>the</strong>n engenders<br />

lowered feelings of self-esteem, which <strong>the</strong>n leads to more & more acts of causal sex.<br />

Is this why over 25% of <strong>the</strong> people in <strong>the</strong> world have had more than 10 sexual partners?<br />

Is this why over half of all those in committed relationships have at least one affair?<br />

Is this why almost 70% of those in such relationships say that <strong>the</strong>y would have an affair if<br />

<strong>the</strong>y knew <strong>the</strong>y wouldn’t get caught?<br />

There is a silent epidemic in <strong>the</strong> world today, and its disease is betrayal — betrayal of our<br />

partners when we cheat on <strong>the</strong>m, betrayal of our partners when we treat <strong>the</strong>m as<br />

conquests, and betrayal of ourSelves when we do <strong>the</strong> same.<br />

Fortunately, <strong>the</strong>re is a cure available. Both men & women innately understand that sexual<br />

intercourse is a “Sacred Act”,<br />

… an act that is not only physically pleasurable, but also emotionally & psychologically<br />

charged;<br />

… an act that provides one of <strong>the</strong> highest expressions of intimacy and Love available to<br />

we Human Beings.<br />

To treat sex as less than Sacred is to violate this Truth …<br />

… and to violate this Truth is to suffer & to cause suffering.<br />

“Your problem is not your sexual behavior.<br />

Your problem is your fleeing from intimacy.<br />

Sex is simply your method of fleeing.” ~ anonymous<br />
