I am writing an oratory about love. My topic is going to be something along the lines of “Love has become a taboo subject in our society.” I would like to know of and important philosophers/philosophies that support/reject that idea. Anything will help. I have been searcing endlessley for several days,a nd have come up with dead end links and non-reliable sources. I have a few sub-points to review, any help on these would be greatly apprieciated also.
- People do not believe in love.
- People are afraid of love.
- People are afraid they will not be loved in return.
- People simply do not want love.
- People do not love themselves.
Like I said, I am also asking for conflicting philosophy. I need to know what people think about this topic so I can include evidence to waive or at least sidetrack beliefs that go against this topic. Thank you kindly.
