"It's because people surround sex with so much shit—pettyness, jealousy, spite, insecurities, second thoughts, suspicions, ego assertions, so much, so much shit—that having sex with friends sometimes ends up damaging the friendship. You don't offer shit to your friends; pay attention to that; friends are very important. So, get rid of the shit so you can offer the ambrosia, which is there for anyone who wants to stop being a jerk and see. If you pay attention and adopt the correct stance, the right thing to do is to fuck your friends. It's absolutely obvious; it's ridiculous to have to say it and present it as a thesis to be discussed. There's nothing to discuss; it's elementary, logical, crucial. Not all friends, of course; my idea shouldn't be distorted, although I think it's legitimate for someone to undertake as a life mission to fuck all their friends they can. I myself, in a way, am like that, and I know people like that, more people than you'd expect at first glance. Fucking someone should be a gesture of friendship and a complement to it." and deepen it, don't ruin this friendship. What ruins it is the garbage in your head, which isn't inherent to sex, but the deadly trinkets they create for it. Try talking about it with friends and having sex with them if they're sensitive to this way of seeing things. It's indecent to have sex with people who wouldn't be our friends."
