RE: Old maids, old ladies, young idiots - Freewrite Day 283
Hmm, if you're not married and you don't have kids but you fucked a reasonable amount of dudes anyway, does that make you an old maid? Or does the maid part relate specifically to virginity?
That term was used for an unmarried woman with the assumption they were virgins. I don't think there was a socially accepted publicly used term for a woman who dared to have sex before marriage. It just wasn't on. So crazy!
I imagine life was a lot more fun (like back in the Greek God days) before religion fucked everyone over and made them feel guilty about everything.
Yeah, absolutely. Imagine feeling like it's cool to be who you are and that you're welcome on the earth. Sigh.
Oh well - at least it's not as bad these days as it was 50 or 60 years ago, I guess.
