It's quite bold to expect your female sex partners to not have had sex with more than 3 or 4 partners when you have had sex with about 100. Just saying. Apart from that whole double standard discussion.

holy thread jackage


And what does that say about me, Carrie? I mean, obviously you think I'm don't have feminist "cred".

I'm dying to know.

That I don't think women have all the same rights as men?
That I don't think they should be free to express themselves like men?
What do you think it says?

Perhaps your overreaction to my 'double standard' says more about you than it does about me.




I think what you're getting at is why does promiscuity have to be a 'masculine' trait--ultimately, my personal opion on the matter boils down to that, doesn't it?


Should I have to have the same sexual requirements for men as I do women?
And if I don't why does that need to be sexist?

Like I said before, what if one of my preferences for a sexual partner was for them to be latino (which I prefer actually).
This says something about me also doesn't it? But does that make me racist that I have this preference?
I see no reason why I should be attracted to the same features in both sexes. And no reason why this translates to my overall views of what they have a right to do in their own lives. If that makes me feminist strictly for my vote and not my strict adherence to your own moral code, than fine. Or if that strips me of your coveted title, fine too.

When did I put a number on it?

CarrieMpls said:

You wouldn't have to ask me this if you actually read my posts.
It's in reference to your stating that I said it was ok to have double standards.
That somehow I was engaging in that argument, when I never refuted nor supported your statement from the start.

I'm not sure where you're getting an overreaction, I thought we were just having a conversation here. A disagreement, sure, but just cause we disagree, why does that mean I'm over-reacting?

If you have a "preference" for latinos, that doesn't mean you find everyone else unattractive. If you say you are ONLY willing to date latinos, I'd say you're exhibiting racial prejudice.

Again, looks like we'll have to agree to disagree here.

Imago said:

Because you wouldn't have a double standard if you thought it was wrong. You don't have to say it's OK, clearly you think it is OK to have one since you admit that you do. Therefore, your double standard is justified to yourself.

Imago said:

Okay so the highest number you would accept would be slightly below 20?

CarrieMpls said:

conjecture.
Again, you're judging me for not holding to your own view of things.
You're not agreeing to disagree very well.

Imago said:

So you admit you have a double standard, but you think it's wrong. Then what are we arguing about?

CarrieMpls said:

I said conjecture--not I agree.

Are you reading my posts?

Imago said:

Are you reading mine?

CarrieMpls said:

You're doing it again.

Imago said:

oh, Dan.

CarrieMpls said:

last. word.

i fear romantic/intimate rejection. it would crush me if a lover turned me down so instead of asking i usually just wait until they are asleep!

XxAxX said:

I just have images of "him" trying to get the gaffer tape off his pubes safely in the morning

mdiver said:

love conquers all, baby. love conquers all

XxAxX said:

Don't get me wrong, gaffer tape definitely has a place in the bedroom, just not on the pubes

mdiver said:

she likely already knows but i will be sure to mention this to shanti*!
















* kidding!

So no one else wants to talk about being rejected?

I'm sure I can think of more times it has happened to me....
