Sacred Intimacy

5 Replies to “Sacred Intimacy”

  1. Roderick, your commentary on men’s relationships with other men really spoke to me. In the 30 years I’ve been a sexually active gay man, I have had the pleasure and great honour (Canadian spelling) of meeting and being intimate with many, many beautiful men.
    I “came out” at the advanced age of 45, not knowing a thing about being “gay”. I made a point of getting to know men in all aspects of my life, in order to understand the psyche and the spirit of men. Each man I encountered was like a gift to me; beautiful wrapping, but what’s inside. Every man had a story to tell, of his joys and sorrows, of achievements and failures past and hopes and plans for the future, a heartfelt yearning for commiseration and belonging with his brothers.
    Three decades and years of academic study later, I’m still as much in awe of the nature of men and their capacity for love in all its varieties. In my journey toward greater understanding and desire for brotherhood, I know I have brought many men along that path with me. I have learned so very much about life, through all these beautiful men. I have loved them all, and in their own way, they have all loved me.

    Sex and Spirit

  2. Dear Roderick, your story is very much like mine. I am married but also need to find men to bond with. I have been lucky enough to do so with several during my life. These men are still very dear to me. I will never forget them. I have to add, I also remember with pleasure, sometimes with amusement, but never with embarrassment or regret, all of my one- or two-time encounters. Even with them, the sex has always been “holy,” a meeting with “God,” in the sense that these words are used on the HaPenis web site. For me, there is something about good sex with men that re-connects me every time it happens with “Man”-kind, my own kind, even if no lasting relationship with a particular individual has been formed.

  3. Hi, Roderic. Nice to read your confession. Just to be clear, you wife is not aware of your other emotional life, is she?

  4. Congrats brother Roderick.
    You are freeing your soul.

    One of our superpowers.
    Honor and love yourself, the rest follows.
    HaPenis to all.
