"<Twig> I just had an argument with a girl I know. She was saying how it's unfair that if a guy fucks a different girl every week, he's a legend, but if a girl fucks just two guys in a year, she's a slut. So in response I told her that if a key opens lots of locks, then it's a master key. But if a lock is opened by lots of keys, then it's a shitty lock. That shut her up."
Cute analogy, but based on untrue assumptions.
In fact, I was just talking to TomCat about this last night. The idea that men can love sex and be viewed as cool while women who love sex are sluts is about 30 years out of date. The sexual revolution happened a generation ago.
Seriously, if you met a girl who was 25 and a virgin because she won't have casual sex and hasn't been in a serious relationship, would you think, "Wow, what a totally normal girl"?
I think it's pretty widely accepted these days that some people really like sex and don't take it seriously, and many people consider these folks trashy. This is true for both genders. Most people like sex but not necessarily casual sex, but it's fairly well expected of modern adults that you'll lose your virginity before your mid-twenties and you'll keep up a fairly regular schedule of sexual activity after that. Anyone who saves sex for marriage or refuses to have multiple partners is atypical for modern society.
Thus, the idea that there are double standards about promiscuity between the genders continues to get bandied about, but it's not based in current reality. I don't know anyone who thinks it's okay for men but not for women. Do you?
