In reply to the discussion: Can't a woman enjoy her sexuality without being called a whore? [View all]Dreamwithnolove
(6 posts)225. Okay I have to jump in here
So since she doesn't sing any music you like it's shitty? Wow so if you don't like something somebody else does since its not good to you whatever the other person likes is inferior to your taste?
Ok, I joined DU in order to join with other liberal/progressive people and I log on here tonight for a "is she a whore?" debate. This is a shame. You know "We" liberals/progressive claim to be so tolerant and so open yet we still are do divided. We are doomed we will never progress because we still have people who still feel superior in their thinking to anyone they disagree with.
Shame

I think it's more like many piggish men (hopefully not including me) want to enjoy your sexuality...

I guess that's where we disagree. Sex doesn't bug me, and I didn't see Beyonce's "Privates", either.

Actually, in terms of 'whore' versus 'non-whore', it's probably best that men offer no opinion.

No. Sex is the most awful, filthy thing on earth and you should save it for someone you love.
