For those who know me you know that I did not wait to have sex for marriage, but instead I was pressured into marrying the man I lost my virginity to. That marriage was a traumatic experience for me, but even before everything else I felt like a whore. Not in a good way. I felt dirty and disgusting and I hated having sex. I liked sex (physically) unlike the woman in this article. My body enjoyed it and I felt so ashamed for that. That's why these virginity pledges make me so sick. Why do people insist on teaching young girls that it is shameful for them to be sexual?
I think in any circumstances a girl taking a dick for the first time might be traumatic. This girl seemed to be under the mistaken assumption that sex in marriage would be angelic and more graceful than sex outside of marriage.
There's the problem that the girl had of having her virginity become her identity and that can happen in lots of situations, like if you're a drug addict when you become that guy who does drugs, another hurdle in giving up the drugs is being under pressure from the reputation you have. I felt that pressure when I took drugs now I feel that pressure because I go to the gym all the time I've become that fitness freak who goes to the gym all the time and now that's my reputation instead.
Are you ready for the fire? We are firemen. WE ARE FIREMEN! The heat doesn’t bother us. We live in the heat. We train in the heat. It tells us that we’re ready, we’re at home, we’re where we’re supposed to be. Flames don’t intimidate us. What do we do? We control the flame. We control them. We move the flames where we want to. And then we extinguish them.
Impersonation is treason.
