SCHOLAR: REASON AS IT PERTAINS TO SELF EXPRESSION
Reason is the faculty of the mind that is utilized to justify actions.
Reason is a factor to be considered with regards to the basis of civility. With reason, the societies of today have
created bodies of legislation under the premise and respect for the rule of
law. Thus, it becomes important to
understand how reason is created and what actually goes on in an individuals
mind to be able to explain the political phenomenon occurring in society. To delve into this matter, it is important to
go back to Greece. Ancient Greece was a
place full of ideas and inspiration. It
was a place that birthed democracy. Democracy
essentially is composed of two words, “demos,” and “kratos.” “Demos” refers to people and “kratos” refers
to rule (National Geographic 2021).
Greece at that time was a place where sexuality was expressed freely. “[Greece] was a society of great tolerance
and lack of guilt.” (The Gaurdian 2009).
Further, “Nicholaos Stampolidis, director of the Museum of Cycladic Art,
as according to The Guardian, he was “standing before a giant marble phallus [referring
to it as a form of] balance." On
another note, Ellen
Ordessen as according to Cosmopolitan states that, "the ideal Greek man
was rational, intellectual and authoritative” (2016), however the smaller size according
to her allowed the man to remain “logical”.
Today, there are males that publicly depict their flaccid penis, erect penis and
semi erect or semi flaccid penis. The
depiction of a penis as it pertains to Ancient Greece depicts the cultural
values of the individuals in question and further as according to previous the ability to reason and democracy thereafter.
In ancient India sex was practiced through “open sexual relationships,
highly erotic sexual literature, paintings, and artworks (Medium 2020). India is the place that created what is referred
to as the “‘Kama Sutra”. This is a book
which depicts various positions of achieving sexual arousal and ejaculation is renowned
for its creative approach to sex and intimacy.
India is the place where the largest democracy is implemented.
The Netherlands is a place that values rationale and reason. It is the place for the deliberation of many
issues that cannot be resolved through diplomacy. This deliberation is what is known as “ratio
decidendi”. It is an educated approach
to reason. Ratio decidendi uses case
law, precedents, previous decisions and verdicts – starre decisis, circumstantial
evidence, expert witnesses amongst others to come up with the “motivation
behind a legal decision” (Legal Dictionary 2021) in other words the “reason.” What is intriguing about the said state is
the fact that it is a place that pioneered various sexual policies. Of note, is the red-light district where
prostitutes are able to “work”. Legislation
was enacted in the country to legalize prostitution in 2000. Further, this was the place that first
implemented same sex marriage which was legalized in 2001.
Thailand is a place where it was a main factor for the creation of ASEAN. In fact, without Thailand, it could be argued
that such regulatory body was not possible.
ASEAN refers to the Association of South East Asian Nations. It is a place where member states act cordially
for the interest of the region. They aim
to solve issues via diplomacy through cooperation with the member states. This state, is a haven for
transexuals. Thailand is a state that
has enacted specific legislation to protect the sexuality of all its citizens. This is done through Gender Equality Act B.E.
2558 which bans discrimination based on gender identity and sexual orientation
(Human Rights Watch 2015).
In ancient Egypt, “sex was not taboo… the Egyptian religion was filled
with tales of adultery, incest, homosexuality and masturbation.” With regards to the matter at hand, Egypt is
the place where the social contract became rule of law through books of
authority such as The Book of the Dead. Further, Egypt had a legal system which was
furthered from Mesopotamia’s rudimentary “Code of Hammurabi”. Regardless, in Egypt, the authority was the Pharaoh
and the “Vizier [who] directed all administrative branches of the government” (Britannica
2021). They were able to achieve social
control of the empire through law.
With relation to the mentioned states, it becomes evident that there is
a connection between the expression of sexuality and reason as per possible obiter dicta. What is important to note is that the people’s
ability to express themselves through such outlets as sex and intimacy resulted
in their respective societies. Self
expression is very important to keep the individual balance of emotion. According to psychology those that are
inhibited or hold emotion inside without an outlet, are at risk for acting out
in aggression, anger and or violence.
This is referred to as “pent- up anger” (Health Line 2021). Which means that as it pertains to the
mentioned states and their citizens, the ability to express their sexuality prevented
such lack of balance in reason as it pertains to democracy. In fact, when an individual keeps emotions
bottled up inside it creates strong emotions which could impair his or her
ability to reason and make equitable judgements. Thus, expression of sexuality through such
outlets as sex tapes is necessary to balance the individual emotion of individuals
so that they may act with reason and in a manner that is considerate and
equitable as evidence through the named states herein. It is also important to note that sex tapes
are not the only methods of expressing oneself however, it is a method by which
shame can be conquered. Thus, sex tapes
play an important role for individual development as the individual manages themselves
through their adulthood.
