Sex is for married couple. What an article?? nonsense

I used to love this app but lately it's been losing my respect.

Instead of it being yes go ahead and sleep with him, shouldn't it be quit sleeping around with everyone and make sure your responsible enough to use protection and contraceptives if you do have sex. You shouldn't ever sleep with anyone just becaus. Those women are called sluts and have horrible reputations

Really??? This article stopped me at "GAMES" Won't read this article cuz wasting my time isn't something enjoyable. In total agreement with@Kirtay22

I would so stop the "waiting for his texts" even though that guy I'm into right now he is texting everyday but not much during the day lately but still I love it when a guy texts me first then I do. But I should just do it if I feel like talking to him too

Truee 🤗

that's your opinion. empowered women may do whatever they desire. @sherylle

I honestly never have done any of these. Never have and never will. This is childish bullshit if you ask me.

Well said Sherylle. #5 IS nonsense. Sex IS intended for a married couple. Respectfully jennabenna and shannon, a person who does whatever they desire is someone who lacks self discipline. That is how children act . . . Not an empowered adult. Ditto from Sherylle - God bless both of you. He desires something better for you. Respect yourselves and you will lead a much happier life.

@jennabenna well said :)
