I think sex has been misused to quell aggression…

…it is more important to learn how to manage anger and aggression than by using sex and drugs.  Using sex to manage aggression is only creating an addiction, however it sells in films. 

We are angry for a reason and we need to confront and deal with this if we are to evolve and become more civilized.  We have to unlearn the unhealthy ways we have been taught in coping with aggression, such as wars and killing and numerous other means of emotional acting out behavior (not to be confused with the acting out, sometimes called re-enactments, I refer to when one is in the grips of a film one has viewed on TV) we use to cope.  Addictions to negative emotions or chronic anger can be managed without drugs and sex.  Negative emotions have a pay-off but they usually result in one landing in jail or prison, maybe for life.  I know, I’ve been there, it’s no picnic and the three hots and a cot are hardly worth it.
