You have to go 1 year without the internet, or without sex

[Clintonista2]

Which would you go choose to go without?

[Roon]

1. I am celibate

I have already gone over two and a half years without having sex. I can't even remember who my last partner was.

I can't live without the internet. I would barley make it a day, let alone a year.

[coyotespaw]

2. While not giving a specific answer to the question

I must point out that there's a hell of a lot of porn on the internet. Like, shit you'd never see in the real world, man...

[velvet]

3. I can do a year without sex easy

As long as there's no one around to tempt me.

The internet ... maybe a week?

But it's not that simple. I live in the sticks, I never meet anyone I'd want to get close to round here, any romances I've had in the last five years have been via dating sites. So really no internet would mean no sex. :cry:

4. Bye bye internet. nt

[av8rdave]

5. Interwhat?

[HopeHoops]

6. To hell with the Internet!

On Edit:

I mean, a year without sex would be like, um, like,...

well, like a year without sex! I made it MANY years before I even knew there WAS an Internet living on sex alone.

7. Internet.

Of course, it's not unusual for me to go 1-2 months without having sex (and I'm married).

I still need it, though.

8. I want to "really" connect with someone ...

There are a lot of good things about the internet, but it could never take the place of a real-life physical connection with someone that you love. The internet is mostly a "fake" thing. People only present one side of themselves on the net. There is much more that they hide.

On the net, fact and opinion are blurred. People sort themselves out by political inclinations, specific interests, etc. There is an inherent dishonesty on the net. People hide behind computer screens and project whatever image they want to project. True, some are more honest and open, but how to tell?

Even the pornography, which makes up an embarassingly large portion of the internet, is fake. Oh sure, the photos and videos are mostly real enough. But the situations and acts are contrived, devoid of the emotion and the connection that should be there.

Oh, I'd be glad to give up a year of the internet in return for a year of sex. And when the year was over, and I decided to log back on, not much online would be different.

In other words, I don't think I would miss that much.

9. Assuming you're not planning to cut off my arm, I assume I could have both.

;)

I went five years without internet access. I can live without the net, though I do not wish to.

10. Would that be sex with somebody else or ALL sex?

I think we need to clarify that before I answer...

11. It's not sex if it's with yourself.

Well, maybe is someone else is watching. :evilgrin:

[MajorChode]

23. What if it's just a blowjob?

Follow up question:
What if you could give yourself a blowjob?

[Writer]

12. I could go without the Internet, but it would be nearly impossible to complete my degree.

A year without sex? hahahaha!

[cheneyschernobyl]

13. Just finished 19 months without the internet

last week; it feels kind of strange sitting in front of a computer now.

This past week I feel like my entire life evolves around the net. Start online after waking up (no breakfast)...get ready/go to work...immediately after returning home get online (no dinner or appetite)...the next thing I know it's after midnight!

14. Bye Internet. nt

[guitar man]

15. I don't understand the question

Aren't they the same thing? :shrug:

[struggle4progress]

16. "Sex will get you thru times of no internet better than internet will get you thru times of no sex"

It's an old old hippy slogan

[blogslut]

17. I already gave up sex for the Internet

Celibate for 12 years now.

I bet I just killed this thread. Sorry about that.

20. I went 17 years without ever having sex...

never again, the internet would have to go

[Q3JR4]

21. Well assuming you mean

go without sex "with another person" then I'd go without the sex.

Now if you meant 100% celibate I don't know. I use the internet for most of "tension relieving" activities. It'd be so hard to give up sex, but I also download a lot of podcasts from the net to keep myself entertained and informed since I don't watch the national media.

It's a toss-up.

:shrug:

Q3JR4.

22. Since I go over 2 years without sex already

I think that answers the question :D

[njdemocrat106]

24. Well, I've gone over 29 years without sex...

so I think it's pretty obvious...
