I think people who view their overt sexuality as powerful are full of BS, CMV.

I understand that I am currently in a generation where people are very, very sexual. Experimentation and exploration and all that. That's what comes with being college-aged.

There are some people I know and see online who are extremely proud of their sexual nature. They brag about their sex life, speak against slut-shaming and all those things. I get it, I mean I can be in that boat for a few stops I suppose. However, sometimes people take serious, deep, and very very loud PRIDE in their sexuality. And they speak about it as though they've been so oppressed from showing their sexuality. Which, relatively speaking, we're pretty okay here in the US when it comes to sexuality. We have a pretty powerful spot in the porn industry.

To me, I think people who take significant pride in their sexuality like this are being frivolous at best. I'm not saying "keep it in the bedroom", I'm just saying, why do you have to act like it's a civil rights movement? People have been fucking each other in thousands of different ways since the dawn of time. Sex is literally life.

I don't think being highly sexual is empowering. Personally, I feel like having tons of sex is somewhat reckless and dangerous. There's diseases out there, feelings can get involved, stuff like that. *I don't understand how having a lot of sex is empowerment.* ALSO, I want to point out, I do not believe that being COMFORTABLE with your sexuality means that you -have- to be super fucking sexual all the time.


CMV. I feel bitchy about this and I wanna be better towards it.

EDIT- for the record, I'm not high-strung when it comes to sexuality. I'm just as sexual as those who like to announce it, the only difference is, I don't want to celebrate my sexuality in front of people in every day life-- that's why I felt this way.

But now I understand, consider my views changed. :)

Historically, sexuality has been repressed. Even 50 years ago if you talked about how many partners you've had, it would be a negative thing, regardless of how you felt about it. So while people who are college aged now have never been repressed, it's still breaking out of the model our parents had to fill.
