One could write a fairly steamy book about the
sexual dynamics of the TM movement of the 70s.
There were so many games being played that it
was a real booby hatch. I used to know guys on
International Staff who would get laid on a
regular basis by being celibate.
Yup. Here's how it went...they'd be working on
staff at one of the womens' hotels for six-week
ATR courses and pick their woman in the first
week or so. Then they'd start talking with the
woman, going for walks with her, pretending the
whole time to be celibate. Finally, about week
three, it would come down to a conversation that
went like this: "I know all the things I've been
told about the benefits of celibacy, and know
that I should be celibate...but it's just that
I'm SOOOO attracted to you..."
Bingo. The woman would start putting the moves
on the guy, and they'd spend the next three
weeks boinking their brains out after hours.
Then, the next course, the guy would run the
exact same number on another woman.
When called on it, these guys didn't even perceive
that there was a pattern, and that they were running
the same number over and over and over. They were
so in denial about what they were doing that they
had convinced themselves that it was "true love"
and spontaneous every time.
Me, I always found it easier to just be one of
the few guys around who wasn't buying any of this
celibacy stuff. The word got around quickly, and
there was no need for any of the slimy tricks.
It was, after all, the 70s.
