The Daily Colonial: Sexpert, Waiting Until Marriage. My Generation and Sex.

I want to preface this post by noting that, despite the title of the post, my generation is not defined by what the media presents, or by the student population at the George Washington University. However, it is undeniable that our generation has moved a certain way on many issues. The issue of sex is the topic of this post. 

One of the school newspapers, The Daily Colonial, has a column called “Sexpert.” The columnist takes a question from an anonymous student and answers it. The questions are usually, and while I am probably exaggerating, the basic gist of the questions is along the lines of these: “My boyfriend says I don’t make him happy anymore, how can I reignite or relationship?” or “I haven’t had sex in a week, and I’m really hurting, how can I get a quick fix with no annoying calls the day after?” I wish these were REALLY exaggerating, but they aren’t too far off the mark. One column focuses on the best places in our library to have sex. Another column “tackles” orgasms. Yet another tackles a heterosexual who is “bi-curious.”

However, a column that really represents the type of “anti-female,” “anti-respect,” and “anti-morality” of this columnist’s work is this article.  

The part that is despicable and striking to me is when she suggests to the student the script he should follow in order to non-chalantly and casually get the girl to have sex with him. The columnist nowhere mentions that he should only have sex with the girl if he is in love with her, or wants a long-term relationship with her, which, believe it or not (and I know it’s silly) some people still expect a commitment when sex is involved. 

Not to mention even suggesting that perhaps the young man can wait to have sex. No. Apparently waiting isn’t even an option. Men are slaves to their penises and women are only women if they cater to that brainless toad in the name of sexual freedom.

It’s funny how all of these pro-choice and “girls should do whatever they want with their body” men are sometimes treated as though they are fearless and courageous leaders fighting an epic battle on par with the Civil Rights Movement.

Yes.

I wonder why college men would approve of abortion and free sex…Our women have had abortion masqueraded as an issue of privacy and equal rights and they are kept in bondage because of it. Men and women are now abdicated of responsibility and consequences when it comes to pregnancy. I mean, why not, just go to the nearest tax-payer funded doctor’s office and get that child taken care of. Oh and don’t worry if the abortion fails the first time around, because if it comes out alive, your privacy rights demand that child is killed on the table.

See it works out: Now the man can go sleep with a different girl the next day, not causing any real break in his sexual pattern, which would be a shame, and the woman won’t have her life inconvenienced by a child that was the result (in 97% of abortions) of her consenting to have sex. Note that I did not say “willfully” because Lord knows how many girls are having sex because their boyfriends pressure them into it. YAYYYY FEMALE RIGHTS!!!!! YAYYYYY FEMINISM!!!!!!!!  

That said, I am writing this post because of the last column by the “sexpert.” This column was the most despicable I have read so far. I say this because the student who wrote in, unlike others, did not get the answer their question deserved. The student wrote in asking how to tell their significant other they were waiting until marriage to have sex. This so-called “sexpert” proceeded to tell the student that their desire to have sex for the first time with the person they want to spend the rest of their life with was “unusual” and that in relationships, no matter what the terms or length, there is an “expectation” of sexual intercourse. At the end of the article the columnist tells the student that if they stand up for themselves and their bodies and actually assert real independence that they will probably be dumped and lose their significant other.

This is how new standards are formed and new morality created, people are told the old ways don’t matter and therefore, those restrictions need not apply. Creating a new standard of relationship=sex. That it is your problem if you don’t want to have sex because you did not do everything necessary to please your partner.

Again, with this culture, it is easy to see why so many women need abortions and why so many of my generation are like zombies, with no purpose and left empty by the bankrupt ideals that society insists are about lofty notions engrained in us since public school like “equality,” and “free choice.”

There is no freedom in this contorted view of life. There is only bondage. There is no equality. There is only submission.

I would have told this student that I was proud of their decision to do what they wanted with their bodies, to live a lifestyle that will protect them from STD’s, and will ensure that their “first time” will be on their terms, with a person they want to share the rest of their life, and the numerous other “times” with.

While males have been duped into believing they have no choice but to follow the whim of their hormones rather than their better judgment; While women have been fooled by men, women who have lost their virginity and are comforted by the idea that “everyone” else has, and themselves into thinking that sexual intercourse is the only pathway, rather than a 100% foolproof barrier to connection and the validation of a relationship: I think those who have chosen to wait should not be mocked and condemned, but applauded.

However, something tells me the applause won’t be coming from all of the “sexperts.”

What to look for in the 8:00 states

1. If Obama wins 2 out of NJ, Alabama and Conn. it will be a very long night for Hillary.

2. Will Obama’s margin of victory in Illinois be greater than Hillary’s margin of victory in NY?

3. The winner of Missouri will have a feather to stick in their cap at the end of the night.

4. Did Kerry, Kennedy and Patrick pull it out for Obama in Mass? Or did the Mayor of Boston’s hard work driving his machine for Clinton earn him a promotion?

5. Females…especially in Missouri and Conn.

6. White males in Mass. (especially Boston) and Alabama.

7. Can Huck pull it out in Miss., Alabama and Tenn? If so, Romney will be forced to concede by Thursday. Absentee ballots in California might save him.

The Clinton campaign is already downplaying Obama’s win in Georgia.

Well, it is fortunate for Senator Obama that he got his statement first. He got to take “the snub” off the table right away by saying he would be friends with Senator Clinton after the campaign as he was before the campaign.

It was a very good statement for him.

However, I will say that I do not think the “black vs. white” line is good for him. Its uncomfortable for a lot of people.

Senator Clinton’s statement exemplified coalition politics. She just went down the Democratic checklist.

This is going to be one heck of a debate.

I’m signed on folks. I don’t think this debate will be combative throughout, but we will certainly hear some “pointed” comments and serious head-to-head.

Let’s see how melodramatic Hillary can get shaking Obama’s hand.

Well, I said it in the beginning, the trial lawyer in Edwards was going to come out. He is having one heck of a debate and he is very good when he needs to be.

This debate is an absolute mess. It will be fascinating to see the coverage. The only candidate who hasn’t gone against every other candidate on the stage is Bill Richardson who has laid off Hillary.

Obama has done will amidst all of the attacks, he frankly hasn’t had enough time to rebut all of them, which is Clinton’s strategy.

As anyone noticed how serious the Democratic candidates are as opposed to the big joke-a-thon the Republican debate was. That is because Republicans are aloof when it comes to America having any problems at all. At least they’re on their game when it comes to seeing everything wrong with Democrats.

Bill Richardson: I know he’s smart, but in debates, he just seems like he doesn’t get it.

Hillary’s response was good. I’d like to see someone hit her on the fact that she said “we” when referring to Bill Clinton sending some cruiser missiles to try and get Obama.

Hillary is for sure trying to be the substantive, knowledgeable candidate. And by making her answer into points, it made it hard to cut her off.
