Why is it that women are viewed as prudes or sluts? Either you put out and are then a slut or you don’t and you’re a prude. For women there seems to be no in between. For a guy it is different. If he goes home with a woman for a night of fun, it is viewed as a good thing. He can tell his friends that he ‘scored’ last night. For a woman it is viewed oppositely, she is seen as a slut. And if a woman goes ‘all the way’ she is a huge slut. But why is it that the woman has to be the one to slow things down? Can’t women enjoy a night of fun too? Whether it’s in movies, TV, or real life you rarely here for a guy wanting to take things slow. It is almost like it’s the woman’s responsibility to say no to sex.
If women want to take things slow, then they are prude. They might be interested in more than one night of fun and want something more serious. But in this case, it’s usually the man who is trying to get more action and the women who has to suppress him. In order to create a relationship on more than just sex, the woman has to take things slow. She has to deny the man, you rarely here about it any other way. Does it all go back to the old myth that men like sex more than women? That men need sex; it’s all they can think about, and that for women it isn’t the same. Well I think it’s a load of crap. Women like sex too. It doesn’t make us sluts.
