You're Tired of Me Writing About Sex, Yet You'll Sing About It In The Car

I don't have room for double standards.

You're Tired of Me Writing About Sex, Yet You'll Sing About It In The Car
Megan Aaron

Over a year ago I wrote a controversial, hot topic article called, "Boyfriends Don't Receive Husband Privileges." It currently has over 7k views...but that's not to say it didn't come without a lot of hate mail, mean comments, and messages my way. I still stand with every word I wrote in that article.

At the end of the day, I do, and always will, believe sex is for marriage.

However, to each their own. If you already hate every word I'm saying, you know how to close the page. If you believe otherwise, cool, I can't change you. But how come you will blatantly and often times vulgarly sing along to songs about sex day in and day out, yet the minute someone wants to sanctify sex, give it the respect and value it deserves, and talk about it in an open, real, pure, and honest way, you get mad. So mad that you go to the extent of sending someone a personal message about how you'd like to slap them, or about how they'll never find a husband with old-fashioned views like that?

To me that's even further proof of my point - if something angers you so much, then that means you're feeling convicted in some sense about something. You are, in some way or another, feeling something you don't like. Whether that be guilt, frustration, hurt, or conviction, I don't know. But if you would just stop, examine yourself and your feelings and process your thoughts about why you feel so offended or condemned, maybe you'd realize the answer within. Or maybe, just maybe you'd acknowledge the truth and the peace that comes with my beliefs towards the sanctity and complete weight of sharing yourself entirely with someone.

I'm by no means expecting you to agree with me, appreciate this article, or change your ways. I'm solely asking you to look within yourself about why my words about sex offend you, when hip-hop lyrics don't.

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.

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.
