Sex & Marriage #483Z

Celibacy At Home

Sex in marriage is a myth, better yet, a mirage, because there is none. Any sex that there is between married couples, gay or straight, is strictly mechanical, because sex needs change. As time passes the sexual appetite between the married couple dissipates, because this is natural. When you enter into marriage you should know from the start that the sexual drive between you and your mate with vanish over time. Many couples conjure up games, and tricks to keep sexual appetite “alive” but it does not work.

Sex That Works

The best sex is the heated, erotic sex between strangers, or partners that you know for the sake of the sexual encounter, and nothing more, because that brings in the element of excitement. This is why there are so many sexual affairs, because they are bored with their partner. The hottest, and most satisfying sex is that between two or more people that get together solely for the purpose of the sexual encounter, and then reschedule a similar event with a different partner, because that feeds into the need for new encounters.

Beauty Of Sex

The beauty of sex is the sexual appetite that you have for each other, because that is sexually, and psychologically satisfying. When you pay for sex you do not feel the same, because you know that the other person could care less about you. It is psychologically a thrill to be sought after by a hot man or woman, because nothing is more exciting.

Trauma

However, the effect of setting up sexual encounters with other people outside of the marriage vows ruptures the marriage. Marriage is a social contract, and not a love based relationship, because both parties have legal, and social obligations codified with a vow. In a loved based relationship there are no obligations, and no vows.

Solution

Seek the kind of relationships, and social settings that work best for your life. One shoe does not fit all, because we are all different. Everything has it’s price, because that is the rule of Nature. If you want sex in your union then make it an open marriage, because it will give you a strong, and healthy sex life. However, the price that you will pay is a very weak interpersonal relationship with your partner, because this is the rule of Nature.

Bottom Line

One element has to be sacrificed to support another element, because this is the rule of Nature. Thus, it you want a strong interpersonal marriage, keep sex out, because the two do not mix. If you want more sex, then let the interpersonal relationship become a contract, because you can choose to follow the terms of the contract. This goes for any element that you desire in your marriage, money, work, drugs, and so on, because like water, one element displaces the other.

Pencil Drawing

In my drawing above you can see the pencil sketch if you look closely, because this is the beginning of the work of art. The sketch is used as a guideline for the pen & ink. I do not trace over, or follow with exacting detail, the pencil drawing, because that would be a chain to me. Rather, I use the pencil sketch merely as a guide, like an opera prompter, because I know the lines but not the exact cue.

Penis Tower

Phallic Skyscraper

Penis Tower, is the tallest, newest, and finest residence for the Gay Community in the city, because it is designed in the shape of a penis. This ultra luxury condominium is now open to the public, because the units are now on sale. No cost has been spared to deliver the finest amenities, because gay people are the best, and deserve the best!

Theatre In The Round

This rendering is done in pen & ink, because it shows the details more clearly. The shape of the tower is an erect penis with testicles, because this offers a full design of the building. In the testicles there is a pool, and sauna, because this offers gay bathhouse enjoyment. There is also a club in the right testicle for, bingo, cards, and social gatherings, because everyone loves a party. In the left testicle is our very own “Theatre In The Round” with live performances of drag shows, because gay celebrities will be here often. RuPaul, and other gay celebrities will be sure to be on the stage, because this theater is Five Stars. All performances are hard, firm, erect, live, throbbing, full length, and “uncut”. Slings are available upon request.

Teabagging Park

The “Harry Bush” on top of the testicles lead to a spacious terrace, overlooking “Teabagging Park, and gardens”. Just sit back in your lawn chair, and relax while you are being “serviced”. At Penis Tower, there is something for everyone.

Top Of The Cock

At the very pinnacle of Penis Tower is the Grand Ballroom, and observatory, perfect for gay weddings, Christmas parties, and views of the city, because Penis Tower is the tallest building in town! For a “rock hard”, and “creamy smooth” good time, come, and visit the model suites today, because you will have a penetrating experience!

The Penis

A Case For An Incognito Organ

This is a topic that needs to be addressed with maturity, and perhaps a bit of humor, because we all know what it is, and what it does. However, I would like to approach the topic from an intelligent perspective, because I want to offer something positive, and constructive. First, and foremost the penis is an organ of the human body that for the most part should not be seen, because this is a rule of Nature. The reason that the penis is not to be seen is because it has no structure, thus no beauty, because structure is how Nature makes beauty. The beautiful parts of the human body is first the face, and then the chest, because these areas are imbued with structure.

Male Beauty

It is the rule of Nature to display beauty in the human body, because this then compliments the beauty of nature. Like the flowers in the field, people require structure to display beauty, because all creation strives after beauty. When an object is not to be, that means that it is not beautiful, because this is the rule of Nature. Like a clam that opens it’s shell for a brief moment to catch it’s prey, so too that the penis is only erect for a short time while performing, then quickly recedes to it’s flaccid state, because it has finished it’s task. If the penis were meant to be looked at and admired it would have bones, and fiber to give it stature, but this is not the case because the penis is not an object of beauty.

Mistaken Identity

It is impossible to identify a friend by looking at his penis, because the penis has not structure. Most penises look the same no matter what race you are, because it is an organ. Like your hands and feet, they do not have identifying structure, because the form a task. However your face is the most salient form of structure on your body, and does very little. The penis is used in a lower region of your body, because it does not call attention to itself.

Form & Function

As we all know the penis is an organ to be used for urination, and procreation, because this is the design of the organ. No organ of the human body is meant to be looked at and admired, because this is the rule of nature. Thus, when we are not using the penis we should put it away, because we are done using it. The penis is not ugly, in fact it is pleasing to the eye, because it is part of the glorious human body. Therefore, never take offense if you accidently see a penis, just know what it is an move on. The gay LGBTQ Community knows, and understands male beauty, because it is their persona.

Degradation

The penis should never be degraded, because it is an important part of the human body. When we speak of the penis we need to be mature, because we are older and childish things have passed. It is wise to know our bodies and how they work, and respect their various functions, because that is maturity, respect, and honor.

I swim for life ~ A Self-Portrait #515Z

Fitness For A Better And Longer Lasting Life

I grew up in the Jackson Park Highlands, of South Shore, because it was near Lake Michigan. As a child I first leaned to swim at the South Shore Country Club, in South Shore, Chicago, because our family were members of the club. The club had a beautiful beach, because it was on the shores of Lake Michigan. Here is where I first learned to swim. When I started Grammar School, dad had us take swimming lessons at the Chicago Athletic Association in downtown Chicago, on Michigan Avenue, because dad was a member.

Pedigree

The Condren’s

My grandfather was Dr. Francis Leo Condren, a successful dentist with offices in the Pittsfield Building, in downtown Chicago. My father, James Corwin Condren, was an attorney, and owned Favor Ruhl & Watson art supply company at 10 S. Wabash Avenue, in downtown Chicago. Dad also owned the entire Silversmith’s Building at 10 S. Wabash, which housed Favor Ruhl.

The Dunn’s

My grandfather was Philip John Dunn, owner of the Dunn Coal & Oil Company, in Chicago. Beulah Clark was my grandmother, and she was a model, and beauty queen, because she was Miss Chicago in 1920. They lived in the duplex-penthouse, overlooking Lake Michigan, on Stratford & Lake Shore Drive, in Lakeview, Chicago, where my mother Beulah Mae Dunn grew up. Mom attended, and graduated from Our Lady of Mt. Carmel Parish on Belmont. My parents were married in Our Lady of Mt. Carmel Church.

Chicago Athletic Association Junior Members

Saturday Schedule

At 9:00 AM, on Saturday mornings, we junior members would be at the pool and were given private swimming lessons, because we were there to learn how to swim. After the swimming lessons we then went up to the gym to exercise, then at 11:30 AM we went to the main dining room for lunch. The Main Dining Room was very grand because it overlooked Grant Park on Michigan Avenue. The club has since become a hotel call the Chicago Athletic Association Hotel, because it is housed in the club’s building.

Pencil Rendering For

Below is a pen & ink drawing that I did of myself at LA Fitness, because I was working out. I swim a non-stop mile every day, because I want to live a long, and healthy life. At the end of each lap I do a somersault, and flip over resuming my swim, because it keeps my momentum going. No exercise is better for you than swimming, because it expands your lungs, and gives you more air. Your heart, brain, and lungs get more oxygen, and thus are more healthy.

Sex, Drugs, Liquor, Smoking

I have never had an STI, nor will I have any, because I do not sex-up. Drugs mean nothing to me, and I have never done drugs in my life, nor will I ever, because they are repulsive to me. I do not drink, because I am allergic to alcohol. I have never smoked in my life, because my mother warned me about smoking.

Because I Swim Everyday

I am fit, and trim, because I swim everyday. When ever I have a cut, scratch, or injury it heals quickly, because I swim every day. I run, and move quickly all day long, because I swim everyday. All day long I am never short of breath, because I swim everyday. I sleep well at night, because I swim everyday. During the day I am never tired, because I swim everyday. I always have energy, because I swim everyday.

LA Fitness

Now that I live in Lake County, Illinois, I have joined LA Fitness, because it is located in Round Lake Beach, IL. I have been a member for over two years here, and it is the greatest place to be, because they take excellent care of the facilities, and the staff is outstanding.

Photos

At the top is a photo of me just coming in from my daily swim at LA Fitness, in Round Lake Beach, Illinois, because I am ready to shower, and change. I swim a non-stop mile everyday, and do somersaults at the end of the lane so as to keep my motions continuous. LA Fitness is the best, and I am glad to have joined. The photos at the bottom are of me at the pool in LA Fitness in Round Lake Beach, IL.

Holy Spirit And Clorox

Bleaching Out Miracles In The Bible

The Bible is a book that looks backwards, because it is written by backward thinking people. The Bible is not the inspired word of God, because it was written by mortal men. No book has ever been written that is inspired by God, because that is a myth. A better word to use is motivator, or encourager, but not inspired, because that smacks of the Divine.

Pencil Drawing

Above is my pen & ink drawing of the Holy Spirit holding a bottle of Clorox over Jesus, because He is going to bleach out the myths of the Bible. Great thinkers like Albert Schweitzer, and Rudolph Bultmann have worked very hard to come closer to the true meaning of the message of the Bible.

People that believe that the Bible is the inspired word of Go are putting themselves to a disadvantage, because they are not being objective. The Bible needs to be read like a common book, because all of the miracles need to be stripped out. These miracles were meant to enhance the authority of the writing, however, they only make it less credible, because all miracles are fables.

Approach

The most important thing to understand is your approach to the Bible, because that affects how you read it. If you approach the Bible like those from the Chicago Statement of Biblical Inerrancy, then you have a very limited understanding of the task at hand. If you want to get a better understanding of the Bible read it for yourself, because others will have you read it in their way.

Gay Cowboy Pen & Ink

Erotic Male

This pen & ink drawing of a gay cowboy is one of my favorites, because it has captured the spirit of the inner gay male. His eyes are covered with the crossed-hatched lines of my pen. This is a very alluring image, because you cannot see his eyes. The 10-gallon hat covering his head, and eyes, are nicely detailed with vertical hatched lines, because the lines are closely aligned.

Gay Cowboy Pen & Ink #502Z

The use of the pen & ink in this drawing is exceptionally well executed, because of the use of fine lines. The lighting is strong so, because the contrast is high in the drawing. I have used fine pen lines to capture the shading, because a thicker pen would be too blunt. He is looking up and resting his back on the wall, because he is taking in the sun.

Thinking Backwards

Looking The Wrong Way

The path to success in all things is to look forward not backwards, because the future is before all of us. The greatest loss that all of humanity makes is looking to the past, and upholding it for the future. Thus, immediately blinding themselves for future vision. The best path to take is the one that is advancing, because any other will lead you astray.

Looking Backwards #472Z

Looking Backwards #472Z Pen & Ink Drawing

Above is my pen & ink drawing of a naked man looking backwards, symbolizing my point, because he is looking the wrong way. Take the key points from those of the past, and build upon them. For example, only a fool would pick up the Critique of Pure Reason, by Immanuel Kant, like it was hot off of the press. Much has happened since the critique that Kant was not aware of. Since then we have learned of the laws of Genetics, and of the subconscious, the Relativity. How can I seriously look to a person for answers that are clearly not working for today? It is right, and good to look at them as a reference, because they offer things that are in reference to their time. However, the best practice is to abstract from theses men and build cases for today, because that offers solutions for the future.

The same is true in all things, because you will always advance by looking ahead. As an artist I would never draw like Rembrandt, because we see things differently than I do now. As a teacher, I would never teach based on rules of the past, because they do not address the needs of new research of today. I would never read the Bible like it was just printed, because it is very out dated. After reading Albert Schweitzer, and Rudolph Bultmann, only a fool would read the Bible literally. My points go on, and on, because they point to the future. Adam & Eve are mythology, not Science.

Albert Schweitzer

The Classic

To look back at the accomplishments of those who proceeded us is necessary for understanding key points that they have taught us, because these elements are enduring. However, contemporary society does not grasp this, and wrongly takes in the baby with the bath water only to make a mess. People worship the past in foolishness, because it offers less each passing day. Take the good from the past and say thank, and nothing more, because then you are paying homage.

Bartolomeo Manfredi knew, and understood this, and brilliantly worked it out, with genius, in his famous painting Cupid Chastised. My study of this great worked is linked here.

Gay Cowboy Pen & Ink Drawing

Rugged Herdsman

This pen & ink drawing is in two parts, because I want to show how I achieved the final product. Above is my pen & ink drawing of the cowboy, based on my pencil sketch below it. I have made this a contour drawing rather than a fine detailed rendering, because the photo that I am working from has little clarity in it. I like to use photos as prompts, and not straight-jackets. As an artist I need the freedom to express the image in terms that have meaning to me, because I do not want to replicate photos.

Gay Cowboy Pencil Drawing

Below is my sketch of the gay cowboy that I used as my foundation of the work, because I use this as a guide. This is the basement of the house, and the pen & ink is the superstructure of the work of art. Because the pencil rendering is simple, it makes it easier to draw the pen & ink, because it offers flexibility. If I were to draw the pencil sketch tightly I would be confined to that form. The ink gently flows over the pencil, because there are loose lead lines all over to work from.

Shirtless Gay Cowboy

Erotic Herdsman

This handsome youth is a wonderful display of the erotic western male, because he has his shirt off, and is giving you the look of invitation. Straight men look at this virile image of a proud gay youth with envy, because they know inside that they want to be like him. This is essentially a simple contour line drawing, with minimal shade, and shadows, because of the bold outline.

Shirtless Gay Cowboy #464Z Pencil Drawing

Below is my preliminary pencil sketch of the cowboy, because I wanted this to be a nice loose study. My intention for the drawing was for sheer pleasure. I had no intention of doing a precise rendering, with all the perfect lines, and shadows, because I just wanted to relax. Just the follow of the ink from the pen on to the paper was the exercise that I need at this hour.

Proper Introduction

Greatest Gift Of All

The greatest gift that you can ever give to anyone, and it is free, is a proper introduction. A proper introduction is the most important thing that you can offer anyone, because it gives the gift of safety. When you offer to introduce someone that you personally know to a person that your friend does not know, but that you know, is offering both your friend, and the person that you are introducing him to confidence, and safety. For your friend is relying upon your good name, and your steadfastness to expose him to a stranger, because this is sound.

It is never wise to meet a stranger on your own and strike up a conversation, for that can lead to peril. That is why you have so many crimes committed today, because people go to bars, and nightclubs to meet people that they do not know, and end up in trouble. God forbid even worse, hooking up online with Internet dating services, this is danger at all levels, because you have not been introduced.
