Fantastic post! I have always known that men like the one who wrote the letter were terrified of women, and of not measuring up to any other man the woman they want may have been with. It is a HUGE turn off, and reeks of insecurity/inferiority complex. And as the saying goes, “You know you better than me”. Men need to recognize this, because for all the talk of a “man shortage” by some silly women, trust me, there really isn’t one.

The fact that JT thought that idiot’s ‘comments’ were thoughtful and respectful says he thinks the exact same way. pitiful!

The ability to read is not equivalent to the ability to comprehend the meaning behind the words one is reading. That dear JT is your problem. The man’s point of view was stupid, and so he was told. This is my blog and I respond to questions any damn way I please. You don’t like it, go elsewhere. Plenty of sites to choose from where men can say stupid, judgmental things about women with impunity, as the women on those sites lack my intelligence and insight and let them get away with it.

Won’t happen here. You come here with dumb shit, whether you are male or female, you will get told about yourself.

How did you take a very thoughtful, respectful response from a male listener and turn it into a mysoginistic rant? Did you even bother to take into account the man’s actual point of view or did you just look at it as a list of debate points you had to counter?

Wow, do I EVER agree with you! I have said these same things ever since I first HEARD of “purity balls.” The concept is disgusting – as if the daughter’s body is OWNED by her father until he trades her off to a husband. Makes my skin crawl.

Of course fathers are concerned about their daughters making good life choices and not being exploited. But that should go for EVERY aspect of the daughter’s life – NOT just what she does with her twat. Why aren’t these fathers hosting “Financial Independence Balls” that celebrate their daughters learning how to handle money wisely? And why isn’t anyone hosting a ball for their SONS? Oh yeah…THAT’S different. Riiiiight.

This is the work of misogynistic religionists and religion has ALWAYS been about men possessing and controlling women, their bodies, and their sexuality.

Let’s not get it twisted. While I embrace women who show their sexuality, I also feel that women should embrace their sexuality responsibly. A women who has a multiple babies and baby daddys shows that she is emotionally immature and not responsible with her body. This is not judging someone based on their sexual experience, rather it is based on the lack of responsibility they showed engaging in sex.

As stated in the article, (great article by the way) I don’t advocate reckless sex, but I advocate enjoyment of sex by willing partners.

While I am all for this movement of women embrace their sexuality free from judgment, let’s also advocate that they do it responsibly. No need to keep providing fodder for men who are all to willing to say, “See all the babies born and STD’s from women having irresponsible sex?” (Of course the woman will take the heat moreso than the man even though he is equally responsible!)
