I had a fling a couple of months ago with a guy I knew and liked - we didn't want to be in a relationship together, we didn't love each other, we were just getting to know each other in the most intimate way possible. I used to sneak him in when my parents were in bed because I knew they wouldn't have allowed him to stay over, us not being a couple and everything. From my parents' point of view, it was quite obvious as to why; some guy they hadn't known for long would be sleeping with their daughter, under their roof, in their house, and apparently according to my stepmother, I'm still the ten year old girl I was when my Dad and I knew each other better, not the nineteen year old sex-craving young women that I've grown into. However knowing this (I heard them arguing about it), and putting myself in their position, I still think it's unfair that I can't just casually have guys over. If teenagers can't have sex in their own houses, they'll most likely be doing it wherever else they can, such as in a cemetery for example, or in a dirty alley, or like you see in films, in club toilets. And when teenagers are sexually frustrated, they become moody and unpleasant to talk to - I have definitely become bitchier from my four month abstinence, and I feel less confident. Sex shouldn't be seen as anything sinister. Sex is art. It's a way of expressing your feelings for someone; it can be angry, passionate, fast, fun, whatever. Perhaps parents, most parents, have forgotten what it was like when they were young, that's all. At my age my Dad was on his second engagement and my stepmum was a drugged up junkie. I just thought I was being, I don't know... safe? We should be having sex all the time and stop being so uptight about it. Sex is liberating and we all like feeling free, with whomever it may be, we all have different tastes and sex-drives, and I believe that, being an adult, I have the freedom to do so and should be able to do as I wish. Oh yeah and it's free.
