Nunnery Here I come

Hey! It’s been ages, I know. Anyway, I have become reacquainted with Garbage. They rock. There is actually this new song that has intrigued me greatly. Its called Sex is not the enemy. You guys should get it, it was one of the last things I downloaded before the school sent me and email saying that I was using 99% of my bandwidth and that I would be reported to Student Judicial Serviced if any of it was illegal. It’s just a warning. This kid I knew got it last year and absolutely nothing happened to him, and he continued to download. Anyway, the song goes on about how sex is not the enemy and the society tries to make people feel dirty and wrong for the whole multiple partners free love thing. Which of course makes me wonder, am I a tool since I have always thought it’s supposed to be one guy to one girl and all that? I mean, I always though my insistence on international monogamy was a reaction to the whole harem crap that guys all over the world are all hyped on. But maybe I’m being reactionary, maybe instead of saying that people should be forced to confine their emotions and lives to certain standards dictated by society. Ugh, now I am confused if I am a tool because I think one way, or if I am somehow buying into misogynistic dogma (for lack of a better word at 2 am) which aims to allow men to sleep with everyone. I know I don’t want to sleep with everyone. Hell, I currently don't want to sleep with anyone. This is why I often profess my desire to be a nun. When you’re a nun, all you have to worry about is frisky mother superiors and priests, and at least you know right from wrong, even if it is all just according to some canon law written before people bathed regularly.
