1.2 What topics should not be discussed in alt.magick.tantra?
Flaming or disparaging others is never appropriate. In
particular, the assumption that one's own path is the only
"correct" way is offensive in a group as diverse as this.
The fact is that people post here in search of some very
non-tantric things, including bisexual tantric concubines
(presumably. paid sex workers willing to supply a lesbian
two-gal act in Hindu drag). Such antics are bound to upset
or anger sincere religious tantrics in alt.magick.tantra,
and may even tick off some of the non-tantric newsgroup
participants who identify as sex magicians, karezzans, and
students of sex-based folk magic.
Advertisements for personal sexual services (e.g. massage
or sexual surrogacy) are unwanted, although announcements
of classes, courses, and new publications are acceptable.
Sexual (im)personals are harshly frowned upon, although
requests to meet other practitioners of in a given geographic
region are fine. The line of demarcation between the former
and the latter can be extrapolated from these fictional
examples:
:) OK:
35 year old man, new to Boston, hoping to meet members
of the local tantra yoga community. Please e-mail me
if you are out there.
:( NOT OK:
35 year old single white male, good looking and
well-endowed, in search of 25-30 year old blonde
tantra goddess in the Boston area. E-mail replies
only as I don't read the newsgroups. Send a picture
with your reply.
