Whore is in the Eye of the Beholder...

I am an advocate of women owning their sexuality.  Of course, not everyone feels the same.  Since people could call each other names, we've assigned labels to each other.  Those labels are used to control and manipulate people into doing or believing what others want them to.  Once such label is WHORE.  Here in America, where there is this enormous culture of shaming and hypocrisy, we help perpetuate this "Whore" shame cycle.

When a woman chooses to be intimate with multiple partners, she is considered a whore or promiscuous and the implications of being labeled as such, can tarnish her emotionally and socially.  If a man is intimate with multiple partners, he is lauded as a stud, a chick magnet, a Casanova.  We want women to be sexy but, not too sexy.  We want them to be flirtatious but, not too flirty.  It's lunacy really.  Why can't women enjoy sex and pleasure just as much as a man?  It's an outdated method of suppression and control that hearkens back to a time where women were simply viewed as property (unfortunately, in many parts of the world, this is still the case).


Knowing what you want and then going after it is not a shameful thing!  There is nothing shameful about your body and the fact that you want to pleasure it.  There is nothing dirty about enjoying sex with partners of your choosing.  Before I married my husband I slept with several different partners.  I don't feel bad about that.  If I had it to do over again, I do it the exact same way.

As long as you're being safe and monitoring your health, I say GO FOR IT!  Live your truth, and own your sexuality.  You're not a WHORE!  You're a WOMAN and that means you're a powerful, sexy beast!
