Sexual Revolution In Sandstone Retreat

By Rosella Campbell


As modernity ages, several changes takes place. So much with all too familiar social revolutions way from the past like industrial revolution and all, modernity gave rise to the all too conservative talk of the sexual revolution. Speaking about sexuality, it is by nature human, so basically, people are inclined to it. And speaking of the culture there is during this time, some individuals find the rules of sexual behavior too preventive.

That is why during the 1960s, John Williamson, together with his wife Barbara started the new ideal for the sexual behavior. Now, there is one living structure catering to this ideal and that is the Sandstone retreat. This is basically a project which he built for the purpose of research and by initializing his proposal for sexual revolution.

Since sexuality became more aggressive and malicious nowadays due to the many aspects and factors which are present in the environment, Williamson, together with Barbara, his wife founded a ground where a shift in the usual context of sexuality is evident. They eliminated the taboos and taught the benefits of the forbidden norms. He and his wife actually also practiced this, and he said that it worked good for them.

This is what he wanted to implement with his goal of revolutionizing the sexual context. That is that people realize the purpose of sexual freedom and not dwell on being too possesive a partner. For him, it would lead to a more peaceful environment if there is no jealousy with regard to these things, and for that to happen, individuals should be oriented and made to understand it.

So in order to get this to happen, they give people seminars and get them to understand the principles, objectives, and benefits of the engagement. So usually, the subject of their seminars talk about human bonding, sexuality and relationships. Aside from that, they train people to see nakedness as a usual thing. That is why in this venue, people are free to go naked and conduct any sexual activity. According to him, it is connecting nature and natural inclination.

It is completely opposing the practice of dressing conservatively to avoid invitation or drive. Instead, they place it as being used to seeing such things would eliminate sex drive naturally. Speaking of this, about at least five hundred guests gather to observe this every weekend. In the venue, they can participate in group sex and swap spouses for satisfaction. But according to Williamson, it is optional.

Due to this very controversial and forbidden culture, they also garnered much media attention. So much with their endeavor and desire of changing the culture which has from the beginning been the strongest feeling, the overall population did not approve of the idea. Basically, though the world has been inclined to sexual emotions due to the natural call, conjugal love still transcends the idea.

Yes, the concept of sexuality has worsened throughout the years. But basically, this is because of the things which affect their disposition regarding things like this. Of course, there is much that can be caused by the sexually themed movies, music, pictures, etc. Not only that, there is also the the poor parenting and the corrupt personality of people.

But then if you put in the idea of human freedom as per the human understanding, Sandstone would be the result. But the conception of true and pure love is far from such ideal though. But then for those who have the grasp of the idea and the influence of such norm, this place might serve as convenient spot.
