my knee-jerk reaction to singlehood

Jun 17, 2008 02:13

They started calling me a slut when I was fourteen years old. To this day I'm not entirely sure why.

I've had people I was dating imply it, and even say it to my face- and I don't mean during one of those little power games I like so much.

Who honestly cares how many people I sleep with? Who cares who they are (as long as they're not a serial killer) and how long I've known them? What difference does it make in anyone's life?

Apparently it's permissible these days for a woman to like sex and want it often, but not so permissible to act on that if she doesn't have a longterm partner. WTF?

I won't sleep with you if I don't like you. I won't sleep with you if I'm not attracted to you. I do not, however, have to love you. And I have the very rare ability to still be friends with you in the morning.

I don't even know why I'm rambling on about this. I'm sad.
