I just caught an old episode of Star Trek Voyager (yes, I admit it—I’m a bit of Trekkie). It was the one where a young Vulcan crewmember goes through ‘Pon Far’, the Vulcan Mating Ritual, also known as ‘Blood Fever’. When he touches Bl’ana Torres (who is half Klingon and half human), she catches the same ‘Pon Far’ The blood fever runs so deep that if you don’t satisfy it, you can actually die! This made me ponder all of us here in chastity… How strong do your feelings of frustration and denial become? To what extent do these emotions impact your mental state? Does it feel like ‘Pon Far’?? You get bonus points for replying in Klingon! Here’s a great story…
Oh, I wish they had made THAT episode! xo
