>>LMAO! Pun intended or no? Because I got a good chuckle out of that one.<<

Not originally intended, but it was noticed and left in, and I was comtemplating and a little "heh" in brackets, but decided not to.

>>This is what I mean by “shared and enjoyed for its own sake”. Sure, there’s bound to be some arousal on both sides, but it’s not the raison d’être, and both can be perfectly satisfied with just this experience itself.<<

So much this. This paragraph and the one before are dead on and exactly what I was thinking/meaning/trying to say. I think my intial confusion was thinking that "sensual" excluded arousal entirely, but you hit the nail on the ehad for how I feel perfectly.

>>Because the vast majority of people are sexual, not sensual, and don’t really understand that there’s a difference. They’ll take part in sensual activities, but their real motivation (whether conscious or not) is that it will eventually lead to sexual activities.<<

Again, bang on with this. It's like I'm operating on a different frequency that hardly anyone even knows exists, let alone knows how to recognize, and I'm not often eloquent or clear enough to explain it in a way that they get. Plus, fighting against the tide all the time is hard.
