“What you both said is true: Most men today dump women who refuse to sleep with them. But, they’ll dump those women, anyway, eventually.”
This is why I have a prejudice towards career living; a lot of young women who are career oriented are not sexually loose harlots, but often end up being chaste since they after all, can’t afford to get sidetracked into babies and relationship drama. As for young men, if they beg for something, they don’t have any intention of sticking around, hence the pressure. They want the ‘experience’, not the substance.
“I noticed that many women today have the same mindset as the men. Based on this young actress’s comments, my guess is that she’s one of those women.”
Yes; thing is, she knows this is bad stuff, but wants to drag others into it mainly since it validates her, normalizes her behavior, and makes others liable.
“BTW, it’s a great feeling being dumped for refusing. It’s really a validation that you made the right decision.”
Yeah; to be honest, being chaste has brought so many rewards. No kids, no ex-husband or ex-baby daddy, no anchors that I have to take into consideration, no one but me me me. I’m 32, but I’ve left a rough patch and feeling largely like a kid entering the world for the first time. I’m enjoying the fact that my small business is coming together and how much of the world I’ve realized is out there. It’s completely liberating.
Thirty-two is still young. :-) It sounds like you’re very sensible. I have to point out, though, that not all career-oriented women share your opinion on dating. (This young actress in the article would be one example.) According to what I’ve noticed, having a career or not doesn’t seem to make a difference in a woman’s opinion on dating. That’s based only on what I’ve heard and noticed; your observations may be different.
Your comments about the actress are spot on.
