II. What are we missing?
What would be a morality of sexuality free from the four cultural dogmas that has hijacked sexual morality in the past decades?
8. The body is something we are, not something we have.
9. The intimacy of my body stands for my intimacy.
10. My body communicates with its own natural language.
11. The intimacy of my body communicates my intimacy.
12. Persons are not objects to be used as means to other ends.
13. Treating what is personal as an object or as a means degrades it.
14. What is intimate is necessarily personal.
Substituting the four cultural dogmas with the necessary corrections explains why there have been certain commonalities regarding sexual morality. If we all share the same human nature, there must be some common moral conclusions that we can derive.
