monkey see, monkey do serves as a personal blog and creative outlet for
promiscuous!
livescience posted a study this week showing that some promiscuity is the result of warmth or an expression of warmth, instead of pleasure seeking and relationship avoidance. they wrote:
While sleeping with multiple partners certainly carries with it certain health risks, “it could be that someone’s not doing it to achieve the most pleasure. Someone actually might be doing it as an expression of their warmth to other people,” he told LiveScience. “A warm person might hug lots of people; a warm person might kiss lots of people. Well, maybe a warm person might sleep with lots of people.”
i don’t particularly see “warmth” as the motivator in this nelly video, but you be the judge:

Growing up, before I knew the dictionary definition of promiscuous, I thought it meant desperately seeking attention from others. It wasn’t specifically sexual to me as a kid for some reason. That’s funny to me now, because I realize my perspective on it hasn’t changed. I believe promiscuity is a result of narcissism. Wanting everyones love, one way or another.

Lisa: but isn’t that study interesting? that to me implied, besides narcissism and other reasons, that it could be a need to express warmth for others. more of a kind of generosity and caring. at least that’s what i was reading into it.
