Betty Dodson with Carlin Ross
Better Orgasms. Better World.
Snippet of text conversation (I've fixed the grammar, as I don't use/severely hate "text speak"):
Guy: Remember all that nasty stuff we used to talk about?
Me: Yeah. I miss it.
Guy: I thought you said you didn't like it!
Me: If I didn't like it, then why did I keep responding?
Guy: Yeah. I know. You still masturbate?
Me: Duh. I don't have any available dick.
Guy: Thought you were waiting until you got married.
Me: That's kind of changed.
Guy: Well... I have some available dick. Always did for you.
Me: What are you going to do with it?
Guy: Whatever you want.
Me: ::doesn't respond for a second::
Guy: My girlfriend won't mind.
Me: ::hears tires screech in my mind::
WHAT?! Damn.
Said guy and I go back to the time when I was about sixteen (a whole three years ago). He was one of the three boys in the sexual rotation I had going on in high school. We talk occasionally, and it's normally sexual. It's always fun to slide open my phone with something to read about a hard dick. But, whatever. He NEVER had girlfriends... EVER. For this reason exactly: He's a freak. I felt horrible for talking to him about sex and masturbation while he's in a relationship. Dude, seriously? Come on. I wouldn't consider our exchanges "cheating", per se, but if he were my boyfriend, I wouldn't want him talking about his dick and what he would do to another girl.
Cheating is such an issue in young relationships. Trying to keep someone else happy and satisfied can conflict with keeping yourself happy and satisfied (...or you're just greedy). I can't see myself ever (knowingly) being the "other woman". I know how terrible I would feel if I was giving my all to a relationship, being faithful and honest, and he was poking some other bitch on the side. Am I not good enough? Does he not love me? What the fuck is that bitch doing that I'm not? I mean... I'm all for open relationships, but everyone should be on the same page.
In a perfect world and in perfect relationships, both partners are free to talk about everything and anything, including things of the sexual nature. But, that isn't always how it is. How much fun can sex be if you're not going where you want to go? So... I can *almost* understand why cheating would seem like a good idea. That's almost a fantasy of mine: To never be tied down and to experience all the dick I want. To get a taste of everything. But, I suppose that's a bit unrealistic.
Tyra Banks (whom I severely dislike) once said "Flirt like crazy with her, but then come home and do me". Yeah. I could go for that. But, I'm sure that could turn into the patented "Oh, yes, ::insert other girl's name here::" during an orgasm. That would suck hardcore.
I didn't apologize for saying the things I said, because I don't regret saying them. It's just that I WOULDN'T have said them had I have known that he had a girlfriend. Oh well. There's plenty of other dick in the sea.
Sex Positive ≠ Lack of Integrity
Smart...smart, smart girl.
Sex Positive ≠ Lack of Integrity
Robust Fantasy Life ≠ Deviant Behavior
Unsatisfied people, people with no imagination, repressed people, like to point to those who misuse other people for their sexual gratification as typical examples of how degenerate being sex positive is, when in reality there are plenty of bad actors among their ranks as well.
Users are users, and integrity shinesin all types of “groups.”
You shine.
Also…I love the picture that is associated with this post. Perfect!
Love you, ChrisOnline!
I love your comments! And you're so right: being sex-positive doesn't equal having no standards/integrity. Monogamy has become this happy little cookie cutter life that I'm supposed to follow. Fuck cookie cutters.
A Cookie Cutter You Can't F*ck
Right back at ya love...and I'm actually a cookie cutter that you can't f*ck because I'm married, and monogamous by choice.
I completely respect your decision not to be. In the same way that we don't want others to judge non-monogamy, I don't let others define for me what it means, how it feels, to be committed in monogamy, and happy.
I think the worst thing that we tend to do is take our own requirements for happiness and foist them others.
So I say "know thy self," and keep your nose out of your neighbors business.
However, we all have a responsibility to point out bad actors, regardless of their lifestyle. And that's what I liked about your post. It takes courage to lead a lifestyle that's not mainstream while at the same time espousing standards.
How do you know he was
How do you know he was cheating on his girlfriend? He said she wouldn't mind... do you know if he's lying or not?

Um... I'm going to say I'm 99.99% sure he's lying.
