Hi Sexcellent,

I had sex with a couple of different guys during O Week and some of the girls in my hall are calling me a dirty slut. I’m really upset about it because I thought we were in 2016 and it was not a big deal for women to enjoy a bit of promiscuous sex, but now because of this I feel like I’ve done something wrong. What should I do?

Dear Anon,

This is an example of one of the horrible double standards our society has toward men and women. If a man was getting as much action as you are, his friends would probably be high-fiving him. 

The only thing you’ve done wrong is to let the words of those girls get to you. The only person you ever need to answer to is yourself, and at this age one of the things we develop is a personal moral compass. You are the sole owner of your body and, provided you are not harming anyone or yourself, it’s completely your right to choose how you operate the equipment! 

If you’re truly questioning your behaviour, look first to the motive and reason rather than the action itself, because that’s where you’ll find the clarity to decide what to do moving forward.

As always, stay safe and enjoy yourself!

- Love S
