3. lady in the living room, whore in the bedroom
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=439&topic_id=2161589&mesg_id=2161589

i am so mad about this. i think this is exactly where the problem lies, that a man feels he has the right to say this out loud to female gender. i read it as a repression of behavior to follow society dictates in public and a service in the bed. everything about the whore is to provide service to the man. there is nothing exception about the prostitute except expect nothing and allow whatever to her body without complaint.

most men have no interest in the prostitute. in the selling, there is an agreement of a shallow interaction only.

it takes ownership of the womans sexuality and once again, gives that ownership to men. why can't a woman just have fun in the bedroom, owning her sexuality, without any title of slut or whore or whatever.

i dont think it trite, cute, or nonharmful. there is so much more underlining this that i am not good at articulating

how often do we hear anyone lecture man on his behavor in the bedroom, or outside the bedroom.

just another control and for this senator to feel that it was ok to say, women should be so angry.
