"Long ago, Ptahhotep warned us that 'If you are one who fails through the lust of women, then no affair of yours can prosper.' If sex is your predominant preoccupation, failure is bound to occur, over and over again in your life. But, know this, the extreme preoccupation with sexual conquest promoted and normalized as natural by Western culture's sex imperative is the primary cause of this lack of maturity. It is not a naturally occurring phenomenon among all people. Cheating is not a natural inclination among men or women for the world's majority. It is not 'in our blood' as many confused rationalizers believe. We are neither 'dogs' nor 'bitches.' We are not animals in constant heat. These are socialized conditions. Therefore, we are only becoming so because we have become 'culturally misoriented' away from Afrikan tradition and toward the European way and, as a result, are modeling our sexual appetite after the world's morally uncivilized minority. Predatory sexual behavior, a mentality which marriage cannot pacify or suppress and, in Western society, was never designed to, is part and parcel of the European sex imperative. It is a mentality which has no place in the Afrikan tradition. However, it has found its way into the Afrikan mind because we are constantly and systematically bombarded by imagery and definitions promoting a European reality. We become like those who are unable to distinguish right from wrong or, rather, we are learning wrong along with how to make wrong appear right. Reducing us to a state of wrong thinking so that we can be controlled within their cultural framework is the goal. Our confusion can lead us to no longer see Europeans as abnormal because it causes us to think and act distorted, like them. Because we are the majority, once we become abnormal, they become normal."
