I will concede that it may be somewhere between 0.1% and 0.5% of the reason. The fact that it’s the first thing you point to suggests you either have no idea, or you’re deliberately eliding the real social origins of the gender double standard.
Bullshit. Ever heard of cougars? there’s a reason why they got that nickname rather than just being called “old sluts”, because older women banging younger guys is actually sort of a challenge. When things change the double standard is dropped, see how it works?
Or a “bitty bang”?
You’re funny. And clueless.
Well you sure told me.
I think it says “titty bang.”
I read it as bibby bang. That would have been a ‘ho nuva levo’ of kink.
What would you do if these were you kids?
Mutilate them both and spend their college funds at the water park.
Mutilation takes care of the one but if the other can still imbibe alcohol he can still indulge his vice as well as before.
I know of one case where the double standard was backwards. In junior high, I had a list of every girl I liked, in order. This was considered strange. However, the cheerleaders all went around talking about their list of guys they might “do,” and no one thought less of them. If anything, guys fought to be on the list.
In this case, I don’t know if a guy having a similar list would be thought of badly. But I do know he would equally hate having the list published, as it would pretty much ruin his chances with those girls. They might want to, but if they did, they’d be thought of as being as slutty as this girl.
Also, I want to point out that if I found a guy had a list like this, I’d think pretty badly of him too, now. Because I can almost guarantee the guy would go about this pretending to want a relationship with these girls and leading them on.
This.
I mean, I get shopping lists. It’s hard to remember if you’re out of mayonnaise, Miracle Whip, or both.
I do not get why it’s hard to remember whether or not you are supposed to suck a particular dick.
No, but she may well be mocked, humiliated, and ostracized. Just like the girl in the OP’s link was.
Men don’t get slapped in the face because they asked for sex. Men occasionally get slapped in the face because they misread social cues, misgauged their audience, or completely fucked up the request. More frequently, men get slapped in the face because they didn’t take no for an answer or put a woman in fear of her safety.
It never ceases to amaze me that men who loudly and frequently wish women were more interested in sex have no problem tolerating, approving, and encouraging the sort of humiliation that wretched boy inflicted on his sister.
If you want women in general to be more approachable and more open to sex, it behooves you to make sex and sexually charged situations as emotionally safe as possible for all women. How many girls are going to see what that stunted brat did and how his friends respond and decide there’s no way in hell they will ever admit to being curious about and willing to experiment with sex?
A three month grounding is a drag and a chore. Posting that girl’s sexual tally, thoughts, and interests is guaranteed to turn her social life into a nightmare.
If a girl wants to get laid all she needs is a pulse and a vagina?
How sexist is that? Not only against women, but men as well–equal opportunity sexism. :rolleyes: The guys I’ve known have had a choice when it comes to sex and there have been plenty of women who have been turned down upon offering themselves to a guy, myself (back in the day when I was single) included.
I highly doubt that most guys just want to rut blindly, no matter who propositions them.
I think that both men and women can be sluts, but it is more condemned in women.
This Chris person is an asshole and a douche. Because of a little alcohol, he has destroyed his sister’s reputation and social standing? If she is, in fact, doing what is on that list, she’ll fall soon enough on her own. No need to push. Jesus.
Wow. All I’ve got to say is that if they find Chris dead, no one should be surprised. I cannot imagine how pissed his sister would be over this.
His getting grounded for having beer should leave him angry at her for a few months. What he did has probably destroyed their relationship for the rest of their lives. The kid is a monster.
See, this attitude also kind of bugs me. Why do we still have the notion of a “fallen woman” because someone who’s female has the audacity to want sex?
Exactly. “Hold on honey. I need to check my list and see how much I like you.”
This thread has been hanging around a week and I just now clicked read the girl’s supposed “to do” list.
I don’t think it’s necessarily clear that the girl was utterly serious. I think it could be a young girl’s fantasy and, as exposed as kids are now to the intricacies of sex, could actually be about as harmless as a list of Boys I Like. She mentions one boy she might give her “v-card” to. It could be that she has very little sexual experience and found it titillating to list the boys that she’d like to screw …
Maybe?
Right, because everyone in this thread has been castigating her for wanting sex, as opposed to, I don’t know, making up some weird-ass written catalogue of the exact specific sex acts she is willing to perform or permit based on how cool, hot or in need of a haircut the object of her desires might be.
