Didn't you say once that the person who taught you the
secret Wudang method came from a tradition where they PREFERRED
the reverse orbit? I suppose that since the orbit is a loop,
it's only on the local level where it matters which direction
you run it as globally everything ends up being connected.
Caveats regarding Nick's comments for Taoists aside though,
I personally can't trust anything he has to say. He clearly
has a negative bias against homosexuality . . . something
not unnatural--seen throughout the animal kingdom, another
natural expression of the lifeforce. Some of my friends
who are homosexual are healthier and more well-grounded than
some of my friends who aren't. In fact, I know some
Healing Tao instructors that fit into that former category . . .
Strangely enough, fully half of my female friends have
turned out to be lesbian--oftentimes discovering this fact
after a failed romance attempt--then becoming friends afterward.
One of my lesbian friends jokes that I'm a "lesbian-magnet",
but a good number of these women you wouldn't be able to tell
unless they told you, since some of them are quite "girly",
not butch/tomboy type. Makes for interesting discussions
with a close friend of mine when we both talk to each other
about how "hot" certain women are, when referring to certain
TV shows we watch in common.
At any rate, homosexuality etc. is much more common than
a lot of people realize--as many are only "out" to trusting
people in a close circle.
Nick's viewpoints of the "unhealthiness" of homosexual
activity is so clearly biased and wrong, it's not funny.
It therefore casts everything he has to say in doubt,
and therefore I can't take his "secrets" for heterosexual
behavior seriously either. His opinions don't flow from the heart.
To be honest, I think he has a lot to learn about sexuality.
