Me and my man were discussing how many partners we had slept with the other night....he said its ok for a man to sleep around but not a women, I said, but how is it ok for a man when he needs someone to do it with!!! Made my blood boil!!!!

[angel21]

I don't think it's something either sex should be treated any differently.

[angel21]

any differently for.

[kevo2k7]

Yeah hes right Lil men have a higher sex drive than women therefore need to spread it around a bit more,think about it. lol

[lil75]

Kevo - But why is it ok for a man to sleep around and not a women???

[PeasAndRice]

cos they are *****

[craft1948]

Men just talk about how much they sleep around - women just do it.

[kevo2k7]

Lil unfortunately thats just the way it has always been dating way back in time,Henry Vlll and his six wives for example,but times have changed and you want to tell your boyfriend to stop living in the past and accept that we are all treated the same in this day and age regardless of what sex or colour we are.

[obNOXious]

Men have a higher sex drive than women kevo? You've been dating the wrong girls mate:)

It's perfect.y acceptable in my book, for men or women to have recreational sex with whomsoever they wish, shouldn't just be a male area of enjoyment.
I've never subscribed to the idea that a man that sleeps around is ' a bit of a lad' and a woman that does so is a 'slapper'. Makes no sense to me whatsoever.
I think the antiquated attitude stems from the fact that we are still embrolied in a patriarchal society where women (and their chastity) are viewed as prizes by some males. Time they dragged themselves into the 21st century imho:)

[Richard1966]

Regardless of the merits or not of sleeping around, this is acase of double standards. It is not ok for a man to do something and for them to feel that a woman should not. The reverse applies as well.

Clear sex discrimination.

Keep em coming, im gonna show him this later!!!

[carmalee]

I think its cos women usually do things once and get it right - men take forever to master even the simplest of things.

[hippyhoppy]

What was his reply when you asked him why it was ok for a man to do it and not a woman? I'd have walloped him one!! It's none of his business what you did before you were with him... surely..?

[Ethel]

I would ditch a man with such Neanderthal views - he obviously has no regard for, nor understanding of, women

[Sachs]

Don't get me started hippy!
I overheard snatches of conversation earlier round the pool table. Slag this slag that. What the hell is that label about???
