“Yeah, because I'm extremely romantic here. You know what is my fear? This postmodern, permissive, pragmatic etiquette towards sex. It's horrible. They claim sex is healthy; it's good for the heart, for blood circulation, it relaxes you. They even go into how kissing is also good because it develops the muscles here – this is horrible, my God! It's no longer that absolute passion. I like this idea of sex as part of love, you know: 'I'm ready to sell my mother into slavery just to fuck you for ever.' There is something nice, transcendent, about it. I remain incurably romantic.” “Love feels like a great misfortune, a monstrous parasite, a permanent state of emergency that ruins all small pleasures.” ― Slavoj Žižek Zizek is an EIE. He routinely rejects forms of hedonism and pleasure seeking. He even rejects contentment as a category: "Why be happy when you can be interesting?". He also confesses to his secret power fantasies at points, saying "I can be a stalinist if I need to. I know how to use power". He very clearly values Se and frames things continually in *violent* language to prove his points, provoking and making people uncomfortable. To me at least, it's pretty clear that he does not value Si at all.
