On 28th Street and 5th Avenue in New York City, some low-life company has installed a public masturbation booth.
I kid you not.
They call this monstrosity “GuyFi.” The company’s name is Hot Octopuss. Inside they provide a chair and a laptop for viewing erotic images. Don’t worry, they provide a curtain to spare those passing by from public indecency.
As if.
What disgusting nonsense.
THEIR JUSTIFICATION
According to their press release on January 14, 2016, the London-based company aims to curtail stress from work.
To quote them directly, here is a portion of their promotion for it:
“According to Time Out, a remarkable 39% of New Yorkers ‘self-soothe’ in the workplace to alleviate stress. Hot Octopuss has created the GuyFi booth to take this habit out of the office and into a more suitable environment designed to give the busy Manhattan man the privacy, and the high-speed Internet connection, he deserves.”
THIS IS MADNESS
Like most everyone of good will, you have to ask yourself how on earth this was allowed to be built. What city officials thought it would be good to allow this thing to be placed on a city sidewalk?
They clearly think so little of what would make for a civil society. This city now allows its citizens to practice grave sins such as this, inside a public masturbation booth no less. Have they no shame?
That said, I am not surprised. Soon enough public masturbation will probably become the norm, instead of concealing it inside a masturbation booth.
After all, New York City, just like every other major city, is home to innumerable strip clubs and X-rated shops. Can we really be shocked one the size of a phone booth has been created?
I realize X-rated video stores and illicit move theaters and such do not encourage anyone to do physical sexual acts within their premises. (But that doesn’t prevent that either.)
UNREGUATED PASSIONS RULE THE DAY
What we have become is a culture that has lost control of its passions.
We as human beings are imbued with reasoning capabilities not found in other animals. We are meant to use that faculty.
If we did use other rationale, we would realize that a masturbation booth encourages men to practice a vice. Men who ‘self-soothe,’ as the company here euphemized, are not pursuing virtue.
Chastity is a virtue. Chastity teaches men to practice self-control and mastery over their inclinations. This is a virtue that ought to be promoted everywhere.
Whereas, a masturbation booth entices men to indulge in their disordered desires. Providing them erotic material on the Internet enables them to lust after women, as well.
Indulgence and lust comprise the recipe for a “more productive” man? He may find a sanctuary from stress for a short while. But the eternal damn fire he just signed up for will burn for all eternity.
So, don’t tell me this sleezy, sex toy company is looking out for the wellbeing of men everywhere. Rather, it’s more like the blind leading the blind to the depths of hell.
God, have mercy.
