No, that’s how they want you to think. I bought it when it I was very young. The turning point in my young life (as it applies to this subject) was when I realized that women have libidos just like men, enjoy sex just like men, and that they weren’t doing me a favor by having orgasms. When I began to act as though I had as much to offer them, as they had to offer me, my life literally changed. I was more popular, more confident, and just more fun. I wouldn’t be surprised if it didn’t contribute greatly to the fact that a 5’ troll like me married a 6’ foot blonde beauty who looked like she stepped off the cover of a magazine.
Where all da white women at??
good old fashion bttt for that one...
Well, far be it for me to argue with your grandmother. All I have are uninteresting studies and figures to offer in return. However, I do have a bridge to sell to anyone who believes that we didn’t see a rise in promiscuity as birth control became easier and easier to get.
Sorry, you’re just wrong. My parents were born in the early 20’s themselves, and my grandparents in the late 19th century. I have no illusions that people were virginal in those eras, but it wasn’t the steady stream of uninterrupted sex with multiple partners from the teens through the 20’s and often into the 30’s as it is today. Men and women still got married when pregnancy reared it’s head in those days, and that alone made all the difference in the world.
I would tell you how many women I dated for comparison, but I have no idea. I know that I passed your number the year I got my drivers license though. In retrospect, I’d like to take it all back, but alas, what has been done, cannot be undone.
That said, my experiences in the 70’s and pre-HIV 80’s aren’t even remotely comparable to the experiences college aged kids are having today. I’ll have to look to find the source, but FSU did a study a couple of years back and found that students were averaging 30 partners during their 4 year tenure alone.
Ok, whatever you want to beleive is ok with me.
Two things: no wonder she is your ex and if we did what you suggest my husband couldn’t afford me.
Steve Dallas to this day remains one of my favorite cartoon characters. The series where he goes to his high school reunion (just after going to the dentist) was pure gold.
He really got screwed out the Oscar that year.
Exactly. I learned at a young age women like sex as much as men and in many cases more. But sexual currency counts on the premise that sex is something women have and men want. I think the worry for many is that removing sex as a currency ...and the exchange of goods and services it entails and is therefor subject to fluctuating value due to supply and demand will cause a collapse of culture but it really was a bad idea from the start ...as it was counting on keeping a lie going. And many are getting angry at the thought of that form of exchange going the way of the Dodo for purely practical reasons. Many women have gone through life acquiring wealth status and property with nothing more than sexual prowess (my last girlfriend was one) and many men like the idea of purchasing sex and companionship with only money.
“There are may studies that demonstrate that people are not nearly as promiscuous as they pretend/claim to be.”
*****************************
After Freshman year at college I went to work on a drill rig for the summer. Lots of teasing, etc. which was fine - part of the job. But one of the driller’s was a real jerk. Kept talking about all the girls he had screwed, loud, swearing, just obnoxious. He said something to me, I don’t recall exactly what. But it ended up me saying something like “Well, I sure like girl’s but I’m still a virgin” (Much to the chagrin of some of the girls I had dated).
He was the worst at making fun of me, but I didn’t care. The rest of the guys of course also chimed in and laughing, and picking on me. Not only was I the college boy - but a virgin too!
Every one of the guys (five?), except the driller, found me later that week alone and apologized to me. Saying things like “I really admire you”, “Well, I didn’t do it until I was 23 years old...”, etc. I thought it was pretty interesting.
Not this woman. I was not brought up that way.
Bfl
Lucky b*st*rd. ;’)
I’ve gotta get out more...
Why dinna I get no FReepmail?
Thank you for sharing this.
Socialists have been pushing the sex positive agenda for the better part of a century now. Reich, Kinsey, and certain feminists. The goal was to smash monogamy and topple the respect for organized religion.
It wasn’t to “free the masses”. Free sex isn’t free. It requires “free clinics” subsidized by the public taxpayer to treat rampant STDs and end pregnancies.
The politburo needs new “toys” and the abuse by our educators of young people shows this.
The sex positive agenda’s state goal is to end ALL moral judgements over ALL sexual pairings. Little by little the slippery slope is being greased and the public funds it whether it is the people of Indiana financing Kinsey’s archives or the public funding SEICUS and Planned Parenthood through countless health and education offices.
The human debris left in the wake of the Left is of no concern to the social activists. Enjoy the pornicopia, serf.
Condoms in schools wasn’t about controlling disease or ending teen pregnancies. Both still happen and there are things like genital warts that condoms do nothing to prevent.
It was about forever shifting the argument over WHETHER kids should be having sex to WHEN. The teachers have been helping.
SEICUS and Reich and others believe that orgasm is a sacred gift to be enjoyed and shared at any age. They oppose abstinence NOT because it doesn’t work but because they see it to be an “unhealthy” supression of sexual release and desire.
They’ve come for your children and the public is still too accepting of the abusers.
