Sex Thru The Ages, 11/10, Period 3

[captaininthree.livejournal.com]

Today there was a movie already set up and waiting for the class to watch. It was educational.

Really.

Educational.

"Today we'll be discussing the value placed on virginity in the beginning of the 21st century." IE: Now. "Is it more important or less depending on age, gender or where you come from?" Jim asked, arms crossed over his chest as he leaned against the desk.

"Watch the movie," Algren added, motioning to the television, which he clearly didn't trust in the least, as he was keeping clear of it and letting Jim handle the remote control today. "And when the movie is through, discuss how the views of modern society have affected how people value, or possibly devalue, the concept of virginity."

Jim was steadfastly ignoring the noise of what might have been a tomato hurling itself at the window in an attempt to get in and savage them all with it's tomato-y wrath. "And try keep things civil," He added, pushing play.

Talk about the movie or your own personal experiences with this subject.

"If you're a virgin at this day and age," Alex noted, looking around, "and other people know it, you're probably going to get snickered at. Just the way teenagers work. We're all bastards with bitchy attitudes."

Or he was. Alex could generalize when he wanted to.

"At our age, as long as it's that person's choice, I don't see a problem with it," Emma shrugged. "I'll probably make fun of them for missing out if they're being a judgmental bitch - " Jean " - but that's more because I can't stand hypocrites than giving two shits about their 'personal life' or whatever."

"It's stupid." Was Diana's ever so well thought out contribution to the discussion.

"Which part, darling?" Emma drawled. "Getting laid, not getting laid, or the fact that we need to talk about it at all?"

"All of that and the movie too." Diana instantly responded. "Wait. No. Getting laid isn't stupid."

"I have several more years until I can have my Virgin Night," Karla offered, more to prove she was still behaving than any real desire to share this with her fellow students. "Virgin Night is a big deal for witches back home, but after that, sex is sex. It's pleasurable and healthy and good to have. Males just have to be careful, so they don't get stuck with a reputation."

Leda giggled. Yay role reversal! "I'm liking your world more and more."

"It's a good world," Karla said with a smile.

You know, except for those times it failed.

"I'd imagine most of the guys here would have that certain reputation guys from your world are worried about."

"A goodly number of them, yes," Karla said with a low chuckle. "A female can sleep with a different male every night of the week is she wishes and it's her perogative to do so. Males have to be a bit more careful--that is, if they ever want to be seen as worthy of a longer relationship than just a quick tumble in a hayloft somewhere."

She shrugged. "It isn't a fair view, at all. Even less so now that I've seen it in reverse."

"So, another reason it's good you came. You've broadened your horizons."
