The "women are the same as men" feminist lie did great damage to a generation of women. Put it down as one more reason not to trust radical feminist...
"Yeah, too bad about that." --MSM
In 1968, Planned Parenthood and the MSM lied about how "the pill" would liberate women.
In 1968, someone else told the truth.
Consequences of Artificial Methods17. Responsible men can become more deeply convinced of the truth of the doctrine laid down by the Church on this issue if they reflect on the consequences of methods and plans for artificial birth control. Let them first consider how easily this course of action could open wide the way for marital infidelity and a general lowering of moral standards. Not much experience is needed to be fully aware of human weakness and to understand that human beings—and especially the young, who are so exposed to temptation—need incentives to keep the moral law, and it is an evil thing to make it easy for them to break that law. Another effect that gives cause for alarm is that a man who grows accustomed to the use of contraceptive methods may forget the reverence due to a woman, and, disregarding her physical and emotional equilibrium, reduce her to being a mere instrument for the satisfaction of his own desires, no longer considering her as his partner whom he should surround with care and affection.
Dawn you ignorant slut.
Good article. As someone right in her age demographic, I totally see how casual sex has seriously, negatively, impacted relationships.
This wrong can be righted, but it will take a concerted effort on the part of both women and men to accept a new "normal."
Normal should not be casual sex as THE major part of loving relationships.
"Born-again former groupie and author of The Thrill of the Chaste Dawn Eden is, stunningly, finding it a bit tough to locate the special someone who deserves her regrown ladytreasure. The problem? Even though "[celibacy] is a state of grace, where nothing penetrates you," sometimes things can get a little out of hand: "Kissing happens." It happens but rarely, though: Dawn does date, but "not very often. And not in a while." So has she been, you know, taking care of her own needs? GOD, no! "From the beginning, when I first started masturbating I always felt depressed afterward. As I drew closer to Catholicism I realized that masturbation was against my faith."
Kissing happens?? I should hope so! Seems that this born again virgin is under the influence of an extremely restrictive religion, and really won't feel happy until we all do like she does.
My name for this kind of person? Neoprude.
Can someone really be named "Dawn Eden"?
Those Brits are all Bangers and Mash.
And the NEA fights hard to exclude suggesting that 13-year olds wait for sex from sex education.
Sex is precious, not something to be shared with hundreds of other people.
Our ancestors, who appear to us to be so prudish, knew far more than some of us do. There are sound reasons for our traditional proscriptions on casual sex, ranging from moral reasons to the acknowledgement of female psychology to the best interests of children to the preservation of society.
All that said, I'm glad Dawn found Christ. She may never find a husband, but she has the best Husband of all.
I totally agree that the 60's were very poisonous to male-female relationships, and posted that here recently, on a thread about the 60's. Women who grew up in that era were sold a bill of goods.
WOW, what a fascinating piece. I admire her! She finally got it right!
“100 new sex tricks”
As we throw out the bathwater of casual sex, let's try hard to retain these 100 sex tricks, please.
Let me esplain the real facts of life; Many men are happy to find a slut, but never want to marry one. Double standard? Yup, but still a fact of life.
Ping list for the discussion of the politics and social (and sometimes nostalgic) aspects that directly effects Generation Reagan / Generation-X (Those born from 1965-1981) including all the spending previous generations (i.e. The Baby Boomers) are doing that Gen-X and Y will end up paying for.

What I'm discovering is there is a large number of divorced women in their 30s who are enjoying the single life while sharing custody of their kids with their ex's. It's the best of both worlds for them... they have children, but are free from the restraints of marriage. This freedom lets them party like there's no tomorrow, especially on the weekends the kids are with dad. It's like a social pack of divorced women who go out and get drunk with each other, every other weekend. Seriously. I find it amusing yet kinda disturbing.
Are there women who marry for the sole purpose of procreating, then ultimately divorce to enjoy the single life again?
I just missed coming of age in the sixties. Thank goodness!
Marriage has always been more of an economic relationship through history rather than love. The idea that the partners need to be in love is a rather new idea. The idea that one marries only for love has usually been considered foolish until the last century. To this day it doesn't guarantee success.
Marriages were formed for political and econimic gain as well as to make certain that the product of the marriage - the support and inheritance claims (children) were controlled. One had to know who the father was so he would support the child and endow it. Therefore the sexual activities of the woman had to be controlled. DNA is a rather new device.
Since the advent of "romantic love" as the primary reason for marriage the unspoken dictum has been "if you want her, marry her." Since the male initiates the choice and the woman's consent is a response - he has to want her enough to make that initial proposition. It's no longer a negotiation between the young couple's parents.
The "free love" of the Baby Boomers eviserated the need for a choice on either side. It make love into sex without love. Temporary passion is not love - it's sex.
My mother's message to me was: keep yourself worthy of a worthy man. (It worked wonderfully!)
As Laura Schlesinger says living together is not marriage - it's being an unpaid whore.
Of course this "onus" on the woman is considered grossly unfair to the woman as well as anachronistic by the feminists. However, people are people the feminists notwithstanding. The basic human responses haven't changed.
If you give it away freely, it's not worth much.
