The more I hear about the way guys tend to treat girls, the more angry I get. The way they try and take advantage of us. They see us as nothing more than a piece of meat that the can do with as they please. Much like their own personal blow-up doll.
For example, a friend of mine was telling me about an experience she had with a guy. They were just good friends and all the sudden one night he decided that he wanted a piece of her and was such a horn dog that he started to pressure her into the kind of ,"If I do this for you, will you do this for me" sort of thing. Luckily, she has amazing strength and told him off.
But, the problem is that girls tend to just let guys do this to the poit where they think it's okay and normal. Like, my mom's friend and my aunt and uncle won't believe that my brother and sister in law were virgins when they got married. It's horrible that that has become the excepted standard. If you've dated someone for more than a month or two, you automatically have to have had sex. And, alot of times people are just like," Yeah, there is no way those Mormon boys are as clean as you say. There's no way that they don't look at porn and things of that nature." It's just so sad.
But, you know, Mormon boys aren't totally the exceptions, because the guy in the story mentioned, is Mormon. It's really disgusting. Guys just aren't taught to treat women with respect. Where it once was taboo to be young and not a virgin, or even not be virgin before you were married, it now has become acceptable to the general public. But, it really shouldn't be. It has totally alienated alot of girls, like me, to where you can't even have a friendly relationship with a guy, because eventually he will turn into a total jerk and try and get with you, even if he doesn't see you as anything more than a friend.
I mean, it hasn't neccisarily happened to me, I've seen it happen to so many of my firends and peers. Guys just throw them around like trash and the girls just accept the fact that they're going to be that way. Then, it eventually gets to the point where if a girl gets into a relationship and the guy hasn't kissed her in the first week, she (and the others around) will think there's somthing wrong with the guy.
We, both men and women, shouldn't let this be the norm anymore. We need to stand up and be proud of who we are and not be afriad to stand up for ourselfs. And guys need to stand up and be proud of being gentlemen.
We should't just sit back and watch anymore. We need to take a stand and support eachother. And if someone has gone through this, don't condem them for being a slut or whatnot. Be an example to them and let them know that it's okay to be different and support them through the mistakes they make, especially if they're trying to get back on the right path.
Let's do this.
