I know what you mean but it's pretty ridiculous, isn't it? The number of people who think something has no bearing at all on whether what they think is correct or not. There was a time when the majority didn't believe women should have the vote etc.
I, for one, think she's a pioneer and I highly encourage more girls to follow in her stead!
Indeed. I have always found it unfair that the sexual exploits of male and female are accorded a kind of twisted dichotamy. Why should it only be men who can congratulate themselves for their sexual prowess? If you are a man with many lovers you are some kind of Alpha who should be respected. If you are a woman, however, you are a whore.
I think, perhaps, it harks back to outdated views that men will have sex with anything very easily, so if you are the woman in that example you are classed as 'easy' if you have many lovers. Where as women are supposed to be more selective and restrained, so if a man is sleeping with many women he is obviously a prize stud. It cant possibly be that the women are enjoying their sexuality and gaining gratification for their own reasons, can it?
But still, the popular view will most likely be that she is a pile of stony waste matter separated from metals during the smelting or refining of ore.
I do smile at all the people proclaiming her lack of self respect, many of whom will have daughters at university doing 5 men a week! The only difference is, they keep it from their parents
So I think this is where we reach the crux of this issue - nothing is said as long as nothing is said. Had this woman not been in the news, she would have still been doing what thousands of young women do to satisfy their sexual appetite. Only she would have been less known, and the high horse brigade would not be getting an aneurysm over a young woman enjoying her sexuality.
Do I think it was a bad idea to make her exploits public in the way she has? Yes.
Do I think she is wrong to enjoy her youth and sexuality in the way she does? No.
Live and let live
