I have been both complimented and hit on by lesbians but I was 20 years younger and so were they. The first was flattering and fine. The second pushed a little and when I added that besides being straight I was married she suggested lesbian sex didn't count. That struck me as wrong on so many levels it was hard to begin. Wrong because all sex outside of marriage is sex outside of marriage. Wrong because female sex counts every bit as much as any other kind of sex. How could you possibly say "my kind of sex doesn't matter." Wrong because if you don't care if I'm married, and you don't think it matters, perhaps you don't think I matter. And so on.
Best not to tug at that string. That sort of banter is indicative of a 20 something's inability to empathize or see what their actions actually entail, played out. Frontal lobe adolescence, and all that.
That shit didn't compile for me until I was 23 and in an all growed up relationship and gone for 6 months in the Persian Gulf. There's a certain moment in your life when something crystallizes and you realize that shit's just not about you.
"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great
