Women CAN be Sexual Too

Women's sexuality should not be frowned upon.

Women CAN be Sexual Too
musicvideotop

There is this idea that women cannot be sexual beings. The recent VMAs showed an example of this. When Arianna Grande and Nicki Minja preformed their song side to side they were surrounded by "hot" men and at the end of the song they pushed the men's heads down to their crotch giving the illusion that they were receiving oral sex. This shocked people. The idea of a woman openly talking about "getting head" is taboo in our society, but why?

Male singers and rappers talk about sex all the time. Some people even say it's disgusting when a woman discusses it but when a man does people applaud him. This is clearly a double standard.

If a woman is public about her sex life she will be called a "whore" "slut" "loose" so as a woman I am told I shouldn't really talk about my sexual relationships or how I am really attracted to someone. A good example of this is naked posters. We all been into a straight male's dorm room and seen a half naked Kate Upton hanging on his wall. We think nothing of it. But let's say if I, a female has a half naked poster of Zac Efron on my wall. People would probably think I'm weird. Being attracted to a shirtless man is weird if you are public about it apparently.

I am over this double standard.

I believe woman can be as open as they want about their sexuality if they choose to be and not be judged for it.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into. I mean, really, what's the point in entering a relationship with someone if you don't know whether or not you're compatible on a very basic level?

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

Challah vs. Easter Bread: A Delicious Dilemma

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
