Confusion

Am I the only one who gets tired of the double standard? If a girl chooses to stay a virgin til' she gets married, then she is a prude, but if she sleeps with someone outside of wedlock, then she is a slut. God help you if you sleep with more than one person. I mean, what are girls in this day and age supposed to do? There is a statistic out that shows that more than half of single men will not date a virgin. There is another statistic that says over 70% of men want to marry a virgin. What's a girl to do?

On the other hand, a guy that has been with several girls is considered "experienced" and is said to "know how to please a girl." If he is a virgin then he is an "untouchable", so to speak, someone who isn't worth the time it would take to teach him how to please you.

So where does that leave us? Confused is where it leaves us. It leaves us with girls losing their virginity just so they can get a date with a "nice guy". It leaves us with guys who are so insecure in bed because they have been taught that they won't be any good the first few girls they go through. The irony is just absurd. The fact that we are still operating under these archaic ideals of feminism and masculinity while trying to move forward into a modern era has left us all with our heads reeling. We are supposed to know everything about the bedroom and how to excel at it, but we are degenerates if we are found surfing the web or watching erotica to figure out what it is we are supposed to know. "Sex sells" so a good portion of the advertisements in this country play on that, but when sexual addiction is at an all time high, we blame the men, not society.

This prolific mess has gotten way out of hand and I, for one, am done buying into the stereotypes and the meaningless expectations of a nation of people whose ideals come from a place of sheer and utter confusion.
