Arcturus, maternal instinct is something you'll never experience.
Orbie wrote:At least in part. Sex has the maternal feeling about it of getting back, back into the mother, of the reason behind the pointlessness of creation, of seminal re-engagement. That's what's behind the futility of a world of simulacrum, of pornographic onanistic substitutes.

Or is there another hidden assumption?
I am a father, and can vouch for paternal instinct.
Or, does mere brevity dictate?

There are men who can ignite the maternal drive within a woman and her desire to bear him a child becomes the primary outcome of a grand passion.

Hi Orbie,
I have a son and a daughter and my maternal instincts ARE intact no matter what Trixie says. Our maternal instincts are also at work with others too.
But I don't agree with you here, Orbie - not everyone
who conceives or gives birth has maternal instincts
nor does every man who has a child have paternal instincts. Not every child is one who is wanted.
Abortion alone speaks to that. People are quite willing to abort when a pregnancy becomes inconvenient. Some have been known to kill their own children - to
throw them out windows, to drown them.
I think that brain chemistry/the chemicals in the brain play a large part in maternal instinct.
As for the hidden assumption, no, just an un-thought-out bias which is based on something.
So your assertion is that a rich man, by virtue of being rich, will ignite a grand passion in his woman, and ignite automatic maternal instinct more so than a less economically fortunate man. This implies that women are innately money-grubbing creatures who do not connect conscious awareness (such as awareness of morning afterpills) to actual decisions and behaviours.

When he had been done with that for a while he began to get thoughts in his head. So he walked out onto the pavement and looked around for action. There was none.
He went back inside, and looked at the goats head. He closed the door.
There was a noise. It distracted him. Outside life went about its day.

I think Igor is into a whole different kind of Sabbath.
I just watch.
