This is more of a rant blog than anything else. It's about the double standard of men who sleep with many women being "the man" and women who sleep with many guys being "a whore." I've really never understood this reference. Part of me wants to believe that it comes from the time when a woman's chastity was a prized thing, and an unused woman was highly sought after. From those times where men were supposed to be the big, strong supporters and women were there to support their husbands.
It ticks me off how a woman expressing herself sexually and enjoying the pleasures of her body can be looked down upon as being dirty, used or wrong. If you are practicing safe sex and simply not opening your legs to every guy that comes a knockin, than what should it matter what your "number" is? Honestly. It's not even really peoples place to judge on an issue like this!
And when guys sleep with tons of women, they're known as stud muffins, playas, and what not. The guys high five them and pat them on the back for getting so much poon its ridiculous! It's like a pissing contest. Who has the most stories of woman they've nailed? It's kind of ridiculous. It's always bothered me how no matter what happens in a situation like that the guys come out smelling like roses pretty much.
There is a phrase comparing this situation to locks and keys. A key that can open many locks is a master key, but a lock that can be opened with many keys is a crappy lock. Kinda put a damper on women expressing themselves sexually doesn't it? I really think there shouldn't be a double standard on this issue. I mean, if you're a whore, you're a whore. It's not how many people you've slept with, it's really how you present yourself. You can be sexually adventurous and expressive without coming off as a whore.
