Does a tree make a sound if it falls in the woods and there is no-one there to hear it? 🤔 This mind fuck is one of the most famous philosophical riddles, courtesy of seventeenth century over-achiever Englishman, John Locke. Both the French Revolution and United States Declaration of Independence owe a lot to Locke’s political work, but his philosophy of mind forever changed the way we think of ourselves.💭 Ideas like ‘identity’ and ‘self’ start with Locke’s work (hard to believe we didn’t use these words before that, huh?), and he famously posited that we are born a blank slate, a tabula rasa, and all knowledge comes from experiencing the world around us.🌏 So many cool-as-shit mental puzzles relate to identity, such as, if we can’t remember being younger, are we really the same person as back then?😵💫 Locke’s work on who we are and how we learn about the world blew everyone’s fucking minds.🤯
Locke pointed out that our sensations differ in nature. I’m not talking about the difference between sight, smell, etc, but how much our minds influence them.🧠 For Locke, when we interact with something in the world, there are sensations which our minds help create and then those that come directly from an item itself.🖼️ What we see, hear, smell, and even feel filters through the mind and is not truly of the object we experience.👀 However, size, figure, weight and motion are directly known qualities. So, if a tree falls in the woods without anyone there, for Locke, there is no sound as there is no-one there to hear it (see my post on Berkeley to understand his reply to Locke – that there is no tree!).🌳
There is no better way to learn about someone else than to fuck them.🔥 But don’t be completely distracted by how your partner looks or even feels to touch.🤚 These senses are so strong as to be completely overwhelming, but they don’t get to the heart of who as person is.😶🌫️ Close your eyes and take in their physical presence, their weight against yours and the impact of their movements against your body.🫂 With these sensations you directly connect with the person you are with and open up your true selves.💞 Who would have thought a philosopher from 400 years ago would hold the secret to passionate, meaningful fucking.😎
