AMEN. totally agree. don't let double standards apply to you or in fact, every other one here. Think of all the insults men can get from their friends eg. girly, gay, sissy, grow a pair. Now think of all the insults women can get from even their own counterparts eg. slut, hoe, whore.

Good point actually, men are out of order insulting their friends' masculinity like that and making them feel inferior.

I mean as long as you think casual sex is fine then it wouldn't be an insult to be called a slut or a hoe, it's basically just like calling a millionaire "wealthy" or "rich", so the two obviously don't compare. I never thought of it like that.

Great post, repped.

If I know that a girl is well know for sleeping around with random people and could be described as the local bike, then it would lower the chances of me eventually wanting a relationship. But if she was just promiscuous, didn't brag about it and kept things quite, even if I knew how many people she'd slept with I literally couldn't care less, it's totally up to you how many people you sleep with. I know I don't hold back so..

Just be smart about it, that's just the way society is

I don't get this. It wouldn't make a difference to me what other people thought or what they knew, if I liked her I would date her. Plus she could not tell anyone at all and yet it could still get around through no fault of her own, especially if the men she has slept with are lad types who like to boast to their mates.

If I was to date a promiscuous woman (which I wouldn't) I'd just date her... if someone has slept with 20 people, they've slept with 20 people, the amount of people (who are nobodies to me anyway) who know about it is irrelevant as they're not part of my relationship.

How do you deduce that my dear Einstein?

I think I worded it wrong, I meant the sort of girl who would sleep around and just brag, like be proud of sleeping with anyone and anyone with zero standards, it's more of the type of girl that I wouldn't be attracted to personally. I know you wouldn't, but it would be hard for anyone to date a girl like that if her standards were so low. Not that she'd slept with a lot that wouldn't be the issue major issue if they weren't just random horrible idiots, it's hard to explain to be honest. If anyone is smart about it and choose who they sleep with they can avoid being called a "slag" as it's commonly used

I think I know what you're getting at, but I don't know many girls at all who brag about sleeping with anyone and everyone, they would want to keep it hidden I think, men tend to be the boasters (that old cliche of men multiplying their number by 3 and women dividing theirs).

People find out if people know the person they sleep with, all they would have to do is go somewhere like Malia and nobody would ever know, which is what a lot of people do.

I guess so yeah, it's just more of the judgement you make / feel really. I'm not sure about Hud but living in Wakefield, there is definitely a lot of girls who do this ****

Pretty tragic

You don't say why you called me a faux liberal nor why I was shooting myself in the foot, there seemed to be no reason for it.
As I can see no reason, and as you 'cba', then I'll take it you don't either, er, 'sport'.




Anyway, I'd wholeheartedly have the same respect for a girl no matter what her history .. if they do it because they enjoy sex, enjoy experimenting or are just doing it for ****s and giggles, fair play. As long as you're not hurting yourself or others nor doing it for the wrong reason, why on earth not. And that applies equally to both sexes.

Bet dollars to donuts everyone saying sleep with who you want etc would be mortified if their partners number was too high. People who've slept around aren't looked on favourably by either sex, despite the myth about men who sleep around being glorified.

There's no real reason to be mortified though, unless that's just your personal viewpoint.

You may be mortified, but not everyone would and certainly not me in particular, and I'm just being quite honest, not argumentative.

This isn't true though is it? It's a ****ty cliche that's been regurgitated millions of times.

I'd actually argue that it's starting to seem like it's the other way round now, women being "sexually liberated" if they sleep with loads of guys and nobody really saying anything to guys, unless you're a virgin of course, then you're a loser.

Look at all the fuss with 50 Shades of Grey for example, women can read it and tweet or post about what is basically porn and nobody says anything, if a bloke was to post a status saying "going to rip my cock off to Anal Whores vol. 4" he'd be called a pervert and a sad act.

The only people who say it's OK to have sex with as many people as you want are those doing it.

So much love for this post, I've a bit of an axe to grind with this issue. My mates kitchen at uni the girls of the flat put up shirtless pictures of people like Ryan Gosling, Talylor Lautner etc and wouldn't let the boys do the same, but I got the impression they wouldn't have done it anyway. It's becoming more openly acceptable for girls to act shallow and superficial and less acceptable for boys, I'd be embarassed to have posters of girls up in my room let alone in my kitchen.

I sometimes wish I was living in an era where society wasn't declining at an exponential rate.

Exactly, not only is it tacky it's also something you do when you're about 14.

This whole "men are players and women are sluts" thing is a total myth. It's laughable. It's that stupid it doesn't even wind me up anymore.
