Good for him. He and I have something in common. (Although in my case it wasn’t high moral standards, it was lack of opportunity.)
I am guessing that a lot of males, despite a lot of bravado over their record of conquests, fall into that category.
Yes. I can’t claim a moral high ground either...I would have if I could have, but I think it came down to two basic things for me:
1.) The BCD military issue glasses I had to wear well into High School (Birth Control Device)
2.) My mother and father raised me to be a gentleman, call men sir, and women, ma’am. And part of that was to treat women with respect. So I wouldn’t force myself on anyone. If I made a move and they were not into it...well, that was it. And so it went. I wouldn’t trade it, because with my luck, I would have gotten some gal pregnant, and I would have been the marrying type even in High School.
