标题: About Sex -- 关于性
    In China, it’s awkward to talk about sex; but here, I have to face it in many daily conversations. I’m living in a big apartment with 2 girls, besides being roommates, we are very closed friends as well. So we talk about food, weather, sex, G-spot…everything!
  
    In the old tradition, we believe that sex is sin, sex is guilty, sex is evil, we should be ashamed to have sexual feelings…we believe so many lies about sex that we don’t enjoy sex! These beliefs go against human nature because the human body is made for sex. We are a biological, sexual being, and that is just the way it is.

    But today is totally the reverse! Love, sex, everything is just like fast food! One-night-stands, sexual partners… we don’t even need a marriage contract to make our sex legal, our bodies are free to do whatever we want! Well, it’s Ok as long as you really enjoy it but we don’t need to follow it because that’s the “new fashion”.

    Everything in this world is about belief!

    Humans accumulate a lot of knowledge. We learn all those beliefs, morals, and rules from our family, society, religion and we base most of our behavior and feelings on them. We don’t have much choice, because all of these are already there before we’ve been born, we are forced to accept them and then domesticate our children in the same way.

    Generation by generation, we changed slowly, we broke old rules, and built up new ones to control us. But we just don’t realize that all the knowledge are lies! We don’t need to be manipulated by all the lies we created.

    Don’t believe these! Don’t believe what others said! Don’t even believe me! But only believe yourself; believe what your heart tells you! You are the only one knows what is the best for you!

    I have my belief for sex and love which is only right for me!

    In my world, sex has to come with love. With the one you love, each touch, each kiss, and the sex will be wonderful as a song, a dance, an art! So before he touches my body, he has to touch my heart first!

    I have a very open mind, but open mind doesn’t mean to open the body! I believe that sex is very important in couples lives, and I believe that it’s not wise at all to get body involved too fast! The body has sexual needs, plus the animal being has an instinct of warm need. When we get that close to a body, all these needs will come out to confuse your observation and judgment to that person.

    I don’t need to drink alcohol, go out with a man, and wake up in the morning with regret, I don’t need to try, because I believe that’s really not what I want, so I’d never do this to myself! I believe people who indulge in these sexual games, they have a hole in their hearts, but they don’t know what exactly they’re missing, they try to please themselves in this primitive way and forget that there are many things in our lives that we could use to fill up our hearts.

    These are my beliefs about sex, which are only right for me but may be totally wrong for you.

    But that’s Ok! Everyone has their own beliefs, which make humans unique. There is no right or wrong or good or bad. My beliefs make me as “me”, make my “Sherryness”!

    So don’t look all around to see what others doing or saying, put your head down, focus on yourself, you will hear what your heart says!

    All I can say to you is, “that’s your body, you are the boss; it’s your life, do only what you feel comfortable doing! The rest is all lies!”

i really want to touch your heart.

How do I love thee ? Let me count the ways.
I love thee to the depth and breadth and height
My soul can reach, when feeling out of sight
For the ends of Being and ideal Grace.
I love thee to the level of every day's
Most quiet need, by sun and candlelight.
I love thee freely, as men strive for Right;
I love thee purely, as they turn from Praise.
I love thee with the passion put to use ,
In my oId griefs, and with my childhood's faith.
I love thee with a love I seemed to lose
With my lost saints, - I love thee with the breath,
Smiles, tears, of all my life! - and, if God choose,
I shall but love thee better after death.

修女搭上神父的车,神父禁不住伸手摸修女雪白大腿,修女问:神父,你记得圣经129条写着什么吗?神父脸红急忙收手,回到教堂后迫不及待翻开圣经第129条,见上面写到:深入一点,你将无尽的荣耀,神父大呼:上帝呀,规范不熟将失去多少机会呀,同志们,要好好学习呀

Good point! Does it work on male? Let's try this, if a man was educated with this"Your body is yours, you are the boss; it’s your life, do only what you feel comfortable doing! The rest is all lies!" lol.... If this happened, the city need some very tough cops patrolling arround to secure our life.   It's joking. I do appreciate your point. We should free something from our locked mind, not absolute free, but with limit. The limit is abstract... something like the bottom line.


From what you wrote, I can see another point. Happiness is defined by oneself, not any other. This is the true happiness.

标题: LZ英文不错,但还有瑕疵
随便摘录一段如下
Everyone has their own beliefs, which make humans unique. There is no right or wrong or good or bad. My beliefs make me as “me”, make my “Sherryness”!
So don’t look all around to see what others doing or saying, put your head down, focus on yourself, you will hear what your heart says!
第一句:everyone has their beliefs中的their 应改成his/her,因为everyone是单数.

第二段don’t look all around to see what others doing or saying一句中, doing 和saying应该改成:do 和say


但是,总体来说,瑕不掩瑜,老外英文未必这么流利.

标题: 朋友:
这里是华人网站,她的电脑能输中文,为什么不能用中文在这里贴帖子呀?
尽管,选择什么样的语言发帖子是她的自由。
她的英文挺流利的,可以用GOOD来形容,但是,达不到EXCELLENT的水平!她还需要提高!

老外写的英文,别的不说,读起来的感觉就不一样!当然,我指的是受过很好教育的,而且有一定语言能力的老外,不是那种垃圾老外!

其他的我就不回答了,没意思!

老外的英文是什么样子的我不清楚,也许文如其人,我骨子里永远是地道的中国人--哪怕这里待上再久,英文说得再流利。所以对不起,这点上我不是很认同,我想表达的是自己的想法,GG要找篇优秀的文章学英语,找错方向了,小妹担不了这个大责任!

The main problem of your English is that it is still somewhat Chinglish.

也来吹毛求疵一下:All the rest are lies!此定冠词似乎必不可少。

语言就是文化,半路出家者,即使口语再流利,落实到写作完全是另外一回事儿。不太恰当的比喻就是,文盲也可以说很漂亮的话,但是根本不会写。

现在经过各路大虾们的“真知灼见”,最多也就是改成标准的英语句子。而个人感觉英文的难点在动词和副词的应用,而妙笔在于那些用作形容词的短语,也就是那些小词的应用,让人感受到美感,就如阅读优秀的散文一样。

题又跑偏了,LZ在讨论SEX,也就是中文的性。LZ犹如其他含苞待放的女孩子一样,对性比较感兴趣,本来使用母语是最佳的表达方式,但是由于羞涩,也就使用英文来写。现在大家的焦点都转移到英文和文法上来了,有点出乎LZ的预料。

不过也许是读者也都比较羞涩,不好意思谈性,所以转移焦点。这也正是LZ开门见山提及的中国人对性的态度。

谈情说爱,还是使用母语的好。很多东西“只可意会,不可言传”嘛。有兴趣者看看红色部分英文如何翻译吧。

我又跑题了,不好意思。:p

The rest is all lies!”

All rest are lies!”

i think the blue one is better, because 1. the verb should agree with the subject, not the object. i.e., "we are a team" is better than "we is a team". 2. it needs a "the" before rest, i don't know why, it sounds much better.

i came across a betrand russel quote,

"Marriage is for women the commonest mode of livelihood, and the total amount of undesired sex endured by women is probably greater in marriage than in prostitution. "

The rest is all lies!

All THE rest are lies!”

圆同学说的很有道理,1. 但是凭语感而论,第一个句子当宾语是复数的时候,不是很流畅,所以最好当宾语是单数时使用。

2. 第二个句子一定要有THE,宾语是复数形式,跟主语也比较搭配。至于为何要有THE,那是因为所谓REST是跟先前陈述的一些东西相比较而言,比如说某些女人喜欢去酒吧买醉,跟人发生性关系,第二天早晨醒来就后悔。那么,另外一批,也就是REST,坚守自己的身子,追求爱情先,这部分人跟那些人比较,是一个特定的群体,所以THE必不可少。

3. 至于两个句子的谓语,个人觉得IS、ARE均可,完全视具体情况而定。比如刚才提到REST里的那批女人,可以理解为一个整体,就是所谓的单数,谓语使用IS[也就是圆同学说的跟主语保持一致];若被理解成它所代表的一群人,也就是复数,谓语用ARE。考虑到宾语是复形式,所以使用这个比较好:ALL THE REST ARE LIES!

不知道这样理解是否正确,一个建议而已。不过好在偶的建议兼顾了SEX和ENGLISH,离LZ的主题更加贴近一点。

i don't understand why there should be an "ALL", does "the rest" implies "ALL"? if not, is there anything else left?
same goes with "old tradition", can tradition be new?
i saw this kind of over emphasizing a lot, like, "to be honest", well, should i trust him more? or should I consider everything else are lies?
"personally", of course, it is his personal opinion, i know he isn't giving a speech at the UN.
"it is not for me to say", then, shut up. of course it is for everybody to say, if not not, why bother posting?
