Anal Sex is a SIN!? Michel Foucault’s History of Sexuality 7: Discourse, Knowledge and Power
Here’s the link for my Patreon page:
This my 7th of several Mindgasms Vlogs about Michel Foucault’s book called The History of Sexuality: Part 1. It’s his multi-factoral analysis of how cultural attitudes toward sex have changed throughout history, particularly from the 1600s to the 1800s. This episode is about how The Enlightenment led to anyone having anal sex, including gay people, bisexuals, pedophiles and hermaphrodites, being put into the arbitrary religious and scientific categories of sinful, medically flawed, and psychologically flawed. Leaders of the religious, scientific, legal and social orders, along with their associated institutions, used their power to convey their invented knowledge through discourse.
Check out part 6, about how The Enlightenment led to the sexualization of children, through science and religion pathologizing kids’ sexual behaviour and declaring it as sinful. So, this happened thanks to Scientism and Christianity during The Enlightenment:

Check out my Mindgasms Quickie on the book called Eugenics and Other Evils: The Scientifically Organized State, by G. K. Chesterton. This is his argument against eugenics in 1922, when it was phenomenally popular and seen as morally good by most people. At the time, it was declared constitutional in the U. S. to sterilize people against their will, and this was also practised in the U.K. Also, 1 out of 4 American high school textbooks taught eugenics as legitimate science. Like almost everyone, I of course think that eugenics is morally reprehensible. But Chesterton’s arguments against it don’t make sense to me. He explains his theory that Anarchism, atheism, Calvinism, Socialism and Scepticism lead to eugenics. I also get into how it was so popular that fighting against Hitler’s Holocaust of the Jews was not a reason that America joined WWII, that some conspiracy theories are true, and that it’s actually hard to logically, rationally, and morally argue against eugenics:
