(115,177 posts)At all. I thought it was all good, sexy fun.
Then one day a couple of years ago a brogressive let slip that he had more respect for the madonnas than the whores. On that day my eyes were opened.
Women cannot engage in good sexy fun with men while the society we live in is still so unbelievably biased against women.
As long as women are demonized, abused, harassed, or in any way mistreated for daring to be (gasp) actual human beings rather than just madonnas or whores... and as long as women are indoctrinated into the beauty/youth/sexuality brainwashing which teaches us that that is our paramount value as things... that our sexuality is a commodities to be traded like any other... as long as there is so much hatred of and violence against women by the men who claim to love them ... all such interactions are far too fraught with baggage to trust as involving genuine respect.
Sorry, babbling.
