Macabre_Cogitation I have to say that for those who have sex in a graveyard, it's the feeling they probably get. I could be wrong, but if I think about it, it seems to me you would feel much more alive. You would be surrounded by those who lived and are now deceased and having a sexual experience. It would highten your awareness to a new extreme... I can see how some people might feel that way. I could never do it myself, though. I've seen enough strange things in graveyards to believe that some spirits of the dead stay very close to their gravesites and are very awake and aware. I can't even kiss in a graveyard without thinking I'm being watched by eyes that I can't see. Sex in a graveyard? I'd be half expecting some spirit to appear and scream "Not in my bed!"

bluerain202 The_Angry_Fatalist I agree 100%. Do they think people died just that others canhave sex above them? It's just blasphemy. .. lol. Er yeah, if they didn't (how do *you* know you're not sleeping over a grave of a caveman?), the race would die out. Having sex over a grave, now that I think about it, is very respectful and in tune with the proceses of life. >.> <.< We have beds for intercourse, and with billions of people on Earth, the human race isn't going to die out any time soon. And how exactly does one compare sex to death? Intercourse and detah may be natural processes in the cycle of life, but their purposes have almost nothing to do with each other. Unless you went by the French "la petite mort." Purposely going to a cemetary just to have sex is a disruption of somberness that afflicts most graveyards. And to disrupt the sanctity of the dead by doing it all over their grave site to achieve better sex is as disgusting as necrophilia. Destruction and disruption of a place made for morning is outright unacceptable

i've lived right next to a cemetary for almost 10 years now, and believe me, i've seen some s**t. not sex on the tombstones or anything, but... when i first moved in, around halloween, some kids thought it would be funny to go around and TP the graveyard, the cops never did anything about it. then after that, same group of kids went around and kicked off the headstones, mind you these were dated back into the early 1900's, some earlier than that, so they were crumpled easily. i still often see the public maitnance guys riding around on ther lawnmowers, doing their job all right until one of them knocks over a head stone. instead of doing anything, they just back up, run right over it and keep on mowing. 10 years ago, that cemetary was the most beautiful, clean, peaceful looking place on my hideous, redneck-overpopulated street, and i was proud to live next to it because it made my house look good. now it looks like a dump. most of the headstones have been mutilated so you can barely tell it was a cemetary. i hate people, i tell you. crying

Well, after going in GD once I made the decision that it just isn't worth it. Gaia is really bad in that aspect because for however many they delete that many, or more are being started by other morons.
Though I think that what they were doing is highly disrepectful.
I hold a certain love for cemetaries, they are so quiet and peaceful that more often than not it is where I get a lot of my ideas.

I completely agree these actions are disrespectful, but I think it's more about the beauty of the graveyard and the people who go there to mourn lost loved ones (because the dead are, well... dead. I don't think they mind) Personally, I'd be miffed if someone 'did it' on my sister's grave.
The only thing I do to disturb stranger's graves is put white lilies on ones that died recently but never seem to get any visitors. And I pray in front of each. Evil and disrespectful? No. Expensive? Yeah.

The sitting on the gravestones is the part that I'm having trouble with. It can be done disrespectfully, and it can be done respectfully. I think the main thing you have to consider which ones are least likely to be damaged by it, and to, as you're doing it, understand there's a gentleman (or lady) beneth you whom you've never been introduced to. In a graveyard near me, there's a particular masoliem with steps up the side so you can get onto the roof. They were built there with the masoliem. I somehow doubt that particular family minds people climbing atop their graves.
I have a dear photograph of two of my friends sitting my some tombstones and kissing, but kissing is a graveyard is a great deal different from having sex in a graveyard. It is an outdoor public place, essenctially, a park, and you wouldn't have sex there. Well, I suppose some people might, but they frighten me.

How do you feel about wearing color to a funeral? Like pink or light blue and lots of it? My cousin finds this exceptable. In fact she even did to my grandmothers funeral. MY grandmother. I'm not saying wearing some color to it isn't alright. I had some red on and white. I just see it disrespectful. You wear dark colors to show mourning. She says wearing color shows that the person was happy during life and should be shown that by wearing the rainbow. My grandmother died of cancer. She was not happy her last moment I assure you that much. Darker colors in my opinion show mourning and a miss of the departed. A sign of respect. confused At least I know what I'm wearing when she dies. What do you guys think?

Cemeteries are wonderful places to hang out in, peaceful, calm: a lot of nature. A good place to take a pleasant walk through, soak in the ambience and meditate on that which will never be known.
I helped to write a couple tour guides with the intention of getting more ppl into one of the local cemeteries that had been repeatedly vandalized. I enjoy it when ppl find respect for the dead, and can take some time out for that sort of thing. Ppl have various ways of expressing this. . . to each their own.
What I don't appreciate are vandals. They need to be caught and punished. . . cemeteries are beautiful places, and they ruin it for all of us.

It seems like we all agree. Disrespecting the dead in one way or another isn't right. If you're just hanging out in a graveyard and not hurting anything or are just there to mourn, there are no, or there shouldn't be any, problems.

ketchakik Veruniel I don't know why I even go into the GD. Someone posted about how fun it was to have sex in a graveyard. I can barely describe how irritated this sort of thing makes me. Graveyards are memorials with a lot of emotion invested in them, they're usually considered sanctified in some way, and they're not the sort of place to d**k around. I'm not saying visitors should keep their heads bowed and never ever smile. But I get pissed about people -using sarcophagi as benches -leaving their rubbish behind -'humping' obelisks -breaking headstones -stealing bits of broken headstone -getting drunk -making out There are some weird things I think are totally acceptable, though... such as -studying -singing to yourself -taking photos -taking gravestone rubbings I'm interested to see what other people think of as acceptable graveyard behavior. Share your thoughts, oh GGG! what about having picnics in the graveyard? That's probably fine as long as you don't leave trash behind or vandaize anything.

we have one really beautiful old cemetary in my town, going back to the early 1800's, and its a beautiful place to be. you can see it from my friends front yard. but its not a place parents let there kids go alone. gangs like to meet, people have sex, and thats ALWAYS the place for anyone from my school to go to fight, since its off school grounds and within a 5 minute walk. i love taking pictures, however. i took some at my moms wedding in our churches graveyard, which is tiny and dates to the 1760's. give me a second, i'll upload it.

wickedncontagious and besides their dead, is she was hot n not cutt up id ******** ...... So based on the physical beauty of the person you were with, you would disrupt the sanctity of a graveyard for basically a fling? That's stupefying shallow.
Unless you're implying that you're a necrophiliac. If that's the case, you need mental help.
