The other morning, I was luxuriating in bed after a couple of really long shifts at work. The morning talk shows filtered thru my cobwebby brain, and I was floating on a sea of (rather unprintable) dreams.
Something they said on tv, however, caught my attention and I began to listen.
Apparently there are websites where one can have an alter life. Like “Sims” or some such. You can choose your avatar, your clothes, your livingspace and lifestyle…you all get the picture.
To make it all that more (profitable?) (delicious?) (tempting?) interesting…you can choose to have virtual sex as well. This isn’t the ‘old fashioned’ virtual sex where you are typing back and forth. Nope, here you can also have hot, steamy, virtual sex with your other online friends.
On Mike and Juliet they discussed the pro’s and con’s of online virtual sex. The man featured, one of the creators of the Second Life website, apparently has his ‘real life’ wife and then has his ’second life wife’…and he shares ’second life sex’ with her as well.
Stranger still, his real life wife came on the show to support him! (He IS raking in the cash of course.)
So huh, what do you all think?
Is this a new form of pornography? Is this just a natural outcropping of the ongoing virtual sexual revolution?
Is this cheating?

Not only is this pornography, it is in fact cheating. Mathew 5:28 says: But I say to you that everyone who so much as looks at a woman with evil desire for her has already committed adultery with her in his heart.” This means that even though they are not PHYSICALLY having sex, they are indeed lusting after each other, considering cheating, and committing and discussing acts that they would normally only commit with their spouse.

I’m not surprised to see that this has come about. Personally, I wouldn’t accept my partner joining in on this, nor would I do it myself. I guess I’d see it as cheating because it can go beyond natural flirting, etc. Hmmm… good topic!
