The Avatar Debate: Sex, Masturbation, Rape, Gay
Alright, so I saw Avatar and it was exactly what I was expecting, visually mind-blowing, predictable plot, and a little too long, but this is not a review of the movie. This entry is about an interesting debate that no movie has brought up until now.
Without further delay, here is the question that spawns the great debate.
If you had an avatar, and while you where inside your avatar you came back to your real body, and did sexual things to it, would it be sex, masturbation, rape, or gay?
I have posed this question to all of my friends, and after they stop looking at me as if they were staring at the video of the silicon penis, they realize how tough of a question it is. It could be sex, masturbation, rape or gay, and it also could be none of them.
Let's go over each one by one.
1. Sex
Yes: It could be considered sex because you are performing the action on another entity. Even though the entity is actuality you, you are outside of yourself. You are not connected to the entity in which you are having the sex with.
No: You're having sex with yourself. The other entity does not have to consent to you, so it's not really sex. Both of these reasons support masturbation and rape.
2. Masturbation
Yes: You're performing the sexual action on yourself, thus it's masturbation. You're pleasing yourself.
No: You are able to go far beyond what any of us have ever considered masturbation. You are not restricted by the limitations of your body, because you are outside of your body. You are not actually pleasing your real self, because you are not actually inside of your real body thus you can't feel it in your real body. Your real body is just lifeless and numb.
You are pleasing your avatar, and taking advantage of this passed out version of you. This supports the rape case.
3. Rape
Yes: You're performing sexual acts on a being in which is totally lifeless, that has not given permission to you to sexual please it. You're basically a frat guy that slipped a chick a date rape drug.
No: It's your own body, so you don't have to give permission to yourself to take advantage of yourself.
4. Gay
Yes: You're a guy or a girl, and you're having sex with yourself, and you're the same sex as yourself.
No: If this means you're gay, then wouldn't that mean that all masturbation is gay, because it's just another form of pleasing yourself? In all my conversations, this became a whole other debate in itself.
Basically it would always come down to what you were doing to your real body.
A guy would say it was gay because you were sucking dick and girl would say it was gay because you were licking pussy. The retort to that would be, that it's basically your own dick or own pussy so it's actually masturbation. Then they would come back with, well you can't really give yourself oral in real life. Then someone would ask, "That means, your saying that your flexibility is what makes the difference between gay or masturbation," or "That when you really masturbate, you're basically giving yourself a handjob, and that means you don't consider handjobs gay, so you're ok with giving other guys handjobs and not considering it gay?" Then this leads to the whole, "In real life if you could actually give yourself a blowjob would it be gay?" The vote on that last question usually came out 50-50, which surprised me because we have all tried it before, but none of us consider us gay for doing so.
Wow, all of this was really hard to communicate in written word. I hope you understood half of it.
Conclusion: It could be all and it could be none. It poses a question that no one has an answer for because the option of performing this is not real, thus there is no real term for it. When and if we come to it, we will simply have to come up with a new phrase. Such as Avatarbation, or Avarape or something like that.
Other Conclusion: I may want to have sex with myself, but then again, don't we all.
Next time you find yourself at the bar, or a dinner party, drop this question and see how people respond.
DONE

Honestly, if you're having sex with a guy whether or not its your body, your gay. When theres a cock in your hand / mouth, etc.. and you're not getting any stimulation from it, it turns from masturbation to homosexuality. Not that theres anything wrong with that.
