It is somewhat clear that love in this time period is interpreted as a strong emotion mixed with sexual intercourse of some kind. According to the media and what is 'love' in today's society we would have to have a sexual, physical connection to our partner.. Or it's not possible to have 'feelings' for the other person.. But.. How does that explain this?
During the world war series in the 1900's, men were put out in wars, fighting for their own and loved ones lives. Imagine the kind of sexual connection they had with their soul partner. NONE. Love letters and literature was the only source of affection they had for one another. That why only the deepest and most beautiful love poems are dated 100+ years ago! Men devoted their hearts and souls to the one they love. In many cases men only had one wife and spent their whole lives together working out the complications and difficulties. It was even illegal and strongly looked down upon to get a divorce in that time period. Once you are married to that one person, you are committed to the relationship, no matter what situations or obstacles came in between, their love was inevitable. How is it that therapists and psychologist state that sexual intercourse are very crucial in 'love', when life before the 20th century was NOTHING like what we interpret love to be now.
My point is that love is way more than what our media is feeding to the society. 'Sex sells' and girls in lingerie, bikinis and having dry sex in music videos are completely appropriate to the society!? FTW?! And come to think of it, that's why our men today are so hard to please, they keep wanting more and more from us. Why is it that we have to sexually please them before they even start saying, 'I love you.' Then you have woman who are promoting this behaviour and asking the same questions, and referring men to 'dogs' and 'jerks'. WE expose it to them! Back in the days when men were even aroused by the very sight of just a woman's ankles, and now we'd have to strip to nothing to even turn them on..
IF YOU THINK THIS WAY ABOUT WHAT LOVE IS. YOU ARE MERELY A SAD INDIVIDUAL.
