If something is enjoyable, it shouldn’t cause guilt. It should just be enjoyable. It’s fine to do something that’s fun, and in fact, there’s a lot of evidence to support the hypothesis that doing things that make you feel good contributes to better mental and physical health. If you decide to take the day off from work and do nothing in particular, it’s not a guilty pleasure — maybe you needed a day away from the pressure of a potentially intense work environment. If you want a slice of cake, you shouldn’t feel guilty about it. Cake is value neutral; it’s society that has decided to assign cake a negative value, judging those who choose to enjoy it.
Pleasure isn’t guilty
