"...the sanctity of my hoo-hoo...

[vulgarweed]

Because it's never too late to take The Pledge (even if you're pushing 40 and have shagged the equivalent of a small country's Parliament), I bring you the ULTIMATE pro-abstinence site, the one that convinced me!

Iron Hymen!

Don't forget to follow the link to the site for boys, Sex Is For Fags!

Language very much not work-safe. Only to show how DISGUSTING sex is, of course.

Um, yes. Blood. As it happens. And the friends I consulted about it at the time looked at me as if I were some sort of little fuzzy creature form Alpha Centauri, so I gather it's ... rather unusual in this day and age.

The whole Virginity Cult thing Must Die. It all harks back, I'm sure, to men wanting control over inheritance, and somehow ensuring that their son gets the fruits of their hard work. Can't have women choosing who they want to sleep with, can we? And it somehow shrinks a man's penis to have someone else father a child on a woman he owns ...

It occurs to me now that if I'd had some minor injury while menstruating, I surely might've bled and not noticed. *shrug* Yeah, that's probably not the first thing that would occur to me either - I'd probably think, "Isn't spotting a symptom of pregnancy sometimes"? XD

I think probably the creepiest thing I've heard of in modern US culture is the Purity Ball phenomenon - little girls pledging their virginity to the care of their fathers until they're married. BLARGH!!!!! (I can just imagine the look on my dad's face if I ever asked him to participate in something like that. XD) And yeah, it is all about the "value" of women being determined only by sex, and "used goods" being "diminished" somehow (honey, it's not like you're going to run out of it) to men, and...ugh, it's just nine kinds of icky.

Not to mention, I think the romanticized concept of "saving yourself" so you can have tremendously wonderful soulshaking sex for the first time on your wedding night is kind of like never practicing your figure skating so you can "save yourself" for the Olympics. Highly illogical.

I love that. Saving yourself for the Olympics. Best metaphor ever.

I remember when my mom took me aside and told me (at sixteen, age of consent in Michigan) never to marry anyone without knowing what he was like in bed. I love my mom. :D

I love your mom too. :D

My mom says she actually was a virgin when she got married - easy for her to say, she was 19! And she eloped when she'd been dating my dad for all of 3 months.

Oddly enough, my mom was 19 when she got married too--she was like a month shy of 20. But she and my dad had already been living together for a year or two, and she tells me she had a lot of fun in high school.

Heh. I like that metaphor! More people need to hear it, says I. ;]

I am reminded of old Samurai-era Japan, where women were expected to be both virgin and skilled on their wedding night. This was commonly resolved quite neatly by childhood girlfriends becoming teenaged lovers -- all covered by a quiet nod and wink for the good of society, of course. ;D

Re: "diminished" and "used goods" -- it's still a matter of education. There are still, for instance, dog breeders who insist that, if purebred champion Fifi gets accidentally pregnant by the mutt across the road, she is forever tainted from having proper purebred puppies. As if the sperm sticks around in the female plumbing forever, or something ....

Now that's just males flattering themselves as to their importance...XD

I have heard that. It's so ridiculous. I knew a kid in middle school who insisted that if a bitch got pregnant by a dog of a different breed or a mutt, she wasn't purebred anymore.

I always kind of wondered if that kid was taking the same health class as the rest of us.
