Reply #1: Why am I NOT surprised at this? [View All]

Throughout my life, I have discovered that I am much naughtier than most of the men I have met.

Not saying I am "bad" but unfortunately, that is how I and many women like me are seen.

The old Virgin v. Whore dichotomy.

What bullshit.

Why should being okay with who we are be gender-based?

Why are men who notice and appreciate women okay, but women who notice and appreciate a man's body not?

Okay, maybe that's not the point of the article, or the point of your OP, but this is what came to mind when I read it.

Dang it, I am who I am, and I'm really tired of feeling like there's something wrong with me because I don't fit into the "purity" mold.

(And if I am totally off base here, forgive me. It's late, I'm tired, etc. But articles like this one DO bring up a lot of stuff for me, and thus, a lot of emotion.)
