We need, NEED to get away from the idea that sex is something to be traded or sold. Apparently women are only supposed to have sex when it will get us something. Whether it be security in the form of marriage or money from prostitution, we aren't supposed to have sex unless it can be used to our advantage. Sex is not "worth" anything. It's supposed to be shared between two people who really want it. And another thing, I'm so sick and tired of romantic relationships being the most important thing in a girls life. Why do men get to be bachelors and women are old maids?
"I'm just saying women have had extreme successes -- which is fantastic! -- it's just those successes don't translate to success in the relationship field."
Relationships are great. I love being in one but it is not and never will be my whole world. I'm not going to plan my life around getting married or having children. If it happens, if I am so lucky as to find a man with whom I can spend my life, great. If not, I see nothing wrong with my other relationships. I have relationships. We all do. My friends and family are so important to me and I will spend the rest of my life with them. What is it about romantic relationships that are so bloody important? Is it sex? If so then it just furthers my case about lessening our stress on sex in marriage. Lets just all find people we care about to be intimate with and stop caring about the labels!
Feel free to disagree with me. I just think the world would be a better place if we stopped slut shaming our women and started embracing each other as vibrant sexual beings. Without the price tag.
