    Auto-captions changed it to 'engage only in waffle pleasures' I feel like I can subscribe to that!

    thank you. Freedom is having an inner sense of guidance that one follows that is competent and effective ( the stoics say that "effectivty" is focused on what is external). It comes from knowing ones self, knowing the world, having mind and agency and using it well. Freedom for autonomy. Freedom for initiative in action, and to take it when one has to ( not to leave things undone, or to do things that should not be done) . To have initiative, even when waiting , means a good analysis of the situation , having ones priorities in order, self discipline and a willingness to do what needs to be done. Regarding sleeping with many people: it is confusing and a drain. A woman is not an aesthetic object nor a meal. After impression and desire are passed through you are left with what is more real to the person.
