Lost: Nights of Idle Sex with Otherwise-Interesting-and-Potentially-Committment-Worthy People
Found: Disdain for Nights of Idle Sex with said O.I.P.C.W.P.
Lost: Random, knee-jerk pleasure
Found: My vibrator's batteries
Lost: Faith that men can see past sex, and who realize that being "sexually realized" does not mean I want to fulfill your fantasy of a three-way with my best friend. GROW THE FUCK UP.
Found: A sad affirmation that a girl should lie to potential partners about her true desires to avoid desire being the only facet of her personality, and that facet then becoming exploited for the "kid-in-a-porn-candy-shop" phenomenon.
Lost: The illusion that the sexes can be equal in a sexual relationship
Found: My old, crusty Guerilla Grrl boots for stomping the shit out of the next hapless fuck who fetishizes my ass. Not due to meanness or cruelty, but just to make sure he is knocked senseless enough to see past his hormones.
