[edit] On creating article
This article used to point to Happiness. Pleasure is distinct and important concept -- see definition in article. Vir 16:19, 14 March 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Needs Work
Seems like there should be a larger, more distinct article on Pleasure. An end of some sort. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 142.157.195.216 (talk • contribs) 22:28, 26 March 2006
Having just tried to edit "Pain" I find the subjective nature of pleasure to be understated in this entry. SmithBlue 12:16, 10 December 2006 (UTC)
- Question: is pleasure an emotion or a feeling? Is happiness a mood, rather than either of the above? -- The Anome 21:26, 3 November 2007 (UTC)
- good question I am baffled.--Dwarf Kirlston 16:48, 8 November 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Finding Sources
Searching "main source of pleasure" gets 7,340 ghits. 293 on google books, 49 on google news (all time), 70 on google scholar--Keerllston 15:50, 28 November 2007 (UTC)
..searching just "pleasure" = several million. And most of them only discuss pleasure in relation to, predominantly, sexual pleasure. Maybe someone with a philosophy background could help? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Sinderbloog (talk • contribs) 16:08, 2 June 2008 (UTC)
[edit] I'm cautious
I am no "expert" on the subject, but I was able to expand the Activities section somewhat. However, I've decided to place it here for review. If anyone sees fit(and can pick out appropriate references), I welcome them to add it. On the other hand, I also welcome its rejection. You may view the expansion here. It needs expanding. Figured I'd get a jump on it. Wakanda's Black Panther! (contribs) 05:12, 13 April 2008 (UTC)
