I believe in freedom and personal choice. very pro-peace and compassion.
I think everyone is unique, so there is no detailed "correct" way to live.
I do think having a good body image and sexuality is a good thing for everyone (although individual sexualities vary, as do body types and appearances)
I can find good morals and lessons in all religions (and from the Goddess), and I wouldn't reject good when it comes to me.
I do believe in Jesus. but am skepticle about the bible and do not approve of organized religion.
in some ways I'm still learning as I grow. but I think those above are my main tenets.

How many times can it be used before it's newness wears out?

the body doesn't wear out, same as a person doesn't wear out.
we are living beings that regenerate everyday.
if thats so than why does it apply only to sex?
maybe I shouldn't hug people at the rate I do? or kiss them?
or form any emotional bonds? I think I might wear myself out if I keep making all these friends, right?
and when does a man wear out? at the same rate a female does?

It has to do with respecting yourself and your body.
I've heard many time "I've regretted it."

and I've heard many people not regret their choices.
most people with regret don't regret sex - they regret the circumstnace. they regret anyone who has ever used them or anyone they have ever used.
they regret not having healthy relations with others (sexually and otherwise).
how is having sex disrespectful?

Personally, I respect myself and my body enough to let me have as much sex as I want.
