^ Shall we get to know eachother over some lemonade? Ok, cute lesbian/bisexual is now a few posts back... and I'm not quoting...
The problem is a double standard with women and promiscuity.
A man plays the field and he is a god (even to the women who KNOW he will hurt them but if a woman has many sexual partners, she is the scum of the earth and must be stoned to death.
Now, I'm not saying women should have a license to be harlots. Or anyone. I think the most important thing is about being safe and respecting the person you have sex with.
Should there be more specific defining terms for promiscuity. Personally I see a difference between having friends with benefits that you care about or being polyamorous and just screwing anything that moves because the opportunity presents itself, without caring about that person. I think it's really wrong to just sleep with anyone or forget what a precious and deeply emotional/spiritual thing sex can be and it's a gift you share with someone else. I just have a problem with someone of either gender just not caring as long as they get their rocks off or doing it at the expense of someone else There can be alot of emotional pain resulting from (or in!) promiscuity.
I've realized I'm that classic girl with daddy issues, low self esteem. It's tempting to let someone take advantage or throw yourself at someone when you don't respect yourself, but on the flip side there shouldn't be so much HATE towards women who aren't straight laced. Like everyone has a madonna/whore complex. Men like sluts but complain when women are sluts, marry a 'good girl' but then go have sex with sluts 0_o
I like to think I am the good girl who can be a little on the slutty side, but only for someone I care about.
One thing I DO NOT AGREE WITH UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES is a one night stand. You know the type... with people slinking off guiltily and the other person wondering if you'll ever call again...
