Erosian Theory and Practice
David P. Thomas
Introduction
It is my purpose to create a text on the values and
practices of Erosian Practice, a study and method of life.
The term Erosian is coined from the Greek god Eros, who
was the male deity worship for sexual prowess. It is also
where modern society has coined such words as erotica and
erotic. I am the sole creator of Erosian Theory, and I
encourage others to study and add to my works. If you have
any comments, additions or questions I can be reached via
E-Mail on the Tampa based bulletin board, The Dojo,
286-4297. Leave E-Mail to David Thomas.
Many people will say when they initially study this text
that it is foul, profane, obscene, dirty, pornographic and
much worse. If you feel this way then this study is not
for you. Please feel no offense, and merely discard your
copy.
Definitions and Guidelines
Erosian Theory was created by myself in order to
categorize, define, and dignify sexual practice. Erosian
Theory can coincide well with standard love/relationship
practice. Erosian Theory is not a swing/swap club, nor is
it designed to be a matchmaking service. All of these
organizations are supported by Erosian Theory, however,
Erosian Theory is a way of thinking, a philosophy, not a
club.
Erosian Theory came into being at the time I recognized a
feeling of comfort involved in my own sexuality. Most
adults will feel to a certain degree comfortable with
standard practice sexuality, including but not limited to
hetro/hetro and homo/homo sexuality. However, it is well
documented that for most individuals to recognize comfort,
they must form meaningful relationships which extend into
the realm of love, commitment, family, ect. Those who
avoid such commitment often lack the required or desired
sexual contact. With Erosian Practice however, we justify
and validate the need and right for sex gratis sexis or to
coin an art term, sex for sex's sake!
Please understand, at this point, I am not, nor will I
validate unsafe sexual practices. It is part of the
Erosians duty to ensure safety of him/herself and his/ her
partner above all things.
Below are several definitions and following are general
guidelines to Erosian Theory.
EROSIAN : One who studies Erosian Theory, and is a
practitioner of Erosian Theory.
EROSIAN THEORY : Developed by D. Thomas.The theory and
practice whereby guilt is removed from all sexual
relations amongst adults, and the physical self is
glorified. Defines Erosians as a group to allow for
interrelations amongst group members. Defines a code of
conduct and rights of members.
CODE OF CONDUCT : Rules Erosians follow when dealing with
one another. Allows for fair and comfortable interchange
of actions and ideas and allows for judgmental ruling in
the event of problems within the organization. SEE RELATED
CHAPTER
CODE OF PRACTICE : A Erosian chart of sexual practices
that allow for members to advertise desires and likes, at
the same time designating them a membership number for
advertised postings in swingers magazines, singles ads,
bulletin board postings and such. SEE RELATED CHAPTER
EROSIAN COMMUNITY: The body of Erosian Practicioners that
actively persue the Erosian lifestyle. This community is
more in tune with Erosian Theory and Practice, and
conforms to the structure, hierarchy and rituals of
Erosian Theory.
EROSIAN STRUCTURE AND HIERARCHY: The pyramid structure
that defines and shapes an Erosian Community. This lays
out the makeup of members, and the levels of the
practicing Erosians, and allows for vertical movement
within the local and national organizations
EROSIAN INDUCTION: The first of the Erosian Rituals. In a
structured Erosian Community, new members are brought into
the training period via this ritual, consisting of lessons
in physicality, the Ceremony of Fluids, and physical test
of vigor.
EROSIAN INITIATION: The second of the Erosian Rituals. In
a structured Erosian Community, trainees are taken through
the final steps to full membership via this highly secret
ceremony.
EROSIAN SUCCESSION: In a structured Erosian Community,
Erosians may make the choice to ascend into the Priesthood
of Eros. This is accomplished by undertaking a training
program, and upon completion, testing for the skills one
has developed as a result of that training.
EROSIAN PRIESTS/PRIESTESS: In the structured Erosian
Community, the men/women who have studied Erosian Theory
to the level of Priest/Priestess. These men/women aid in
the growth and learning of the local community.
As Erosians, you have no requirements to practice this
theory. Erosian Theory, unlike religion or sectism,
cultism, ect., allows you to define the parameters of your
desired experiences and fulfill your sex life to the
fullest. Erosian Theory IS highly philosophical in nature,
but has the ability to function on multiple layers. Take
what you need and leave the rest.
