The Ideological Foundation Of Sandstone Retreat

By Rosella Campbell


As modernity ages, several changes takes place. So much with all too familiar social revolutions way from the past like industrial revolution and all, modernity gave rise to the all too conservative talk of the sexual revolution. Speaking about sexuality, it is by nature human, so basically, people are inclined to it. And speaking of the culture there is during this time, some individuals find the rules of sexual behavior too preventive.

In the year 1960s, a person by the name John Williamsom has initiated the activity of sexual revolution. With this, a venue for the endeavor was built and it is called the Sandstone Retreat. This place served as the ground for sexual freedom and the education and research for the implementation of such ideal and norm.

Seeing as sexuality has become more and more malicious and aggressive nowadays due to the changing culture, Williamson set the ground for taking sex for good by changing the usual conceptions and the taboos which are incorporated to it. Actually, he and his wife both have the same ideals and they swap partners frequently. But according to him, it never put a strain on their relationship.

Such disposition is what he wanted to change. That people get rid of possessiveness when it comes to partners so that it would not bother them to see each other being intimate with another. This is what they called free love. They believed that without this impediment, there would be peace since no crime and misunderstandings will happen.

Speaking of this, it is the goal of this retreat is to make folks understand and train them to accept the idea to be a usual inclination. So it offered seminars which talk about human bonding, relationships and sexuality. That is why in Sandstone, individuals who take the retreat are all nude and free to conduct any sexual inclination they feel at the moment.

It is completely opposing the practice of dressing conservatively to avoid invitation or drive. Instead, they place it as being used to seeing such things would eliminate sex drive naturally. Speaking of this, about at least five hundred guests gather to observe this every weekend. In the venue, they can participate in group sex and swap spouses for satisfaction. But according to Williamson, it is optional.

Because of this forbidden and controversial ideology, the media released their intention to the public. But given their very attractive promotion and unique selling proposition for sexual satisfaction, it did not work to most of the people. Basically, being the primary feeling since the beginning of existence, conjugal love still stands in its firmest.

Well, with regard to the advocacy for less crimes and troubles, it has also been refuted by the fact that it is the influence of indecent programs and activities that happen nowadays. Due to sexually suggestive themes, people get corrupted which then awakens the urge for sexual activities. Not only that, incompetent parenthood as well as corrupt behavior are also the other determinants.

But then if you put in the idea of human freedom as per the human understanding, Sandstone would be the result. But the conception of true and pure love is far from such ideal though. But then for those who have the grasp of the idea and the influence of such norm, this place might serve as convenient spot.
