The movie "Sessions " ? whats your take ?
by smiddy ini hope ive got the title right i`m going from memory.
helen hunt is a sex therapist with a severely handicapped guy fullfilling a basic need .. watching it , i thought it was an extremely important movie ,touching on a subject that most of us , certainly me , would not have contemplated .. and yet this is a function of life that the majority of people dont give a second thought to in their everyday lives.
yet we all participate in it .. yet think ,.......if you were deprived of sex ,period , because of a physical handicap, honestly ,how would you cope ?

he pondered about some arguments against this case:.

Jws and psychotropics vs. Jws and psychology as a science
by cptkirk inneed to sleep, have finals to take this week, but i wanted to start this thread after i was writing a response to a different thread, this total contradiction dawned on me.
the jws sanction the members to take various prescription drugs for mental disorders small and large, but yet they deny the science of psychology, the same people who are giving them the drugs?
is that a total contradiction or what?
