SWAGE Assumptions

1) That the sex drive is a natural phenomena.
Furthermore: that the sex drive varies from person to person, and that it varies for each person throughout their life.

2) That the sex drive is autonomic in nature. It is not subject to conscious control by the individual. What is subject to control by the individual, is how the sex drive is responded to.

3) Given the first two beliefs, we do not believe anyone should be apologetic for the sex drive that they have, not intolerant to the sex drive that others might have.

4) Life is short; every individual should do what ever they can to optimize their life experience. There is no sense in letting a single moment be wasted. If one is
suffering then one must take action to get relief.

5) No one can give up their right to be. A marriage vow is not a surrender of one's individuality; it is instead a commitment of two individuals to the continual partnership in the mutual advancement of each other's life experience.

6) People for the most part do not change; therefore, they should be accepted for what they ARE, not for what they could be, or say they will become.

7) People find a way to do that which they want to do. We all have to prioritize what we do in our lives, therefore, what ever it is that we are doing, must be the thing that prioritized out at the top.

8) Sex is not love, and love is not sex. Even so, the two are intertwined. Every individual should endeavor to know the difference and respond accordingly.

9) Responsibility comes from the word respond. A responsibility is an obligated response to a given situation. Within sexual contacts, one has on obligated response to at all times safeguard one�s partner(s) from harm, specifically STD�s.

10) Within parenting, one has an obligated response to provide for the raising of the child into a happy, well adjusted, self-sufficient adult that will contribute to the fabric of society.
