    By speaking of "technically" not having sex, she really means anal, right?

    @Trai_Dep: I bet that is an affirmative. And judging by her mentality, I bet since it was "technically" it was unprotected. Who’s going to break the news to her the risks connected to that?

    @swagv: This is female focused blog with female issues. If you don't think it matters, then don't comment on Jezebel. If you don't think it matters (which it DOES) at least . make an educated comment about why it doesn't. You don't belong here. THERE ARE SO MANY FANTASTIC POSTS. You can comment on those or go to somewheres else.

    I'm actually feeling bad now. I had my snark below, but maybe she's trying to be, in her awkward and embarrassing way, a bit sex-positive. For Texas I imagine that's a bit rad. She never got to finish her point. It's an embarrassing admission, in a way. But who are we to mock? Sex really is dangerous and disgusting, I half don't blame her. The Meatpacking District alone proves this.

    She just sounds more like a health class teacher than someone promoting Christianist Purity rings. She didn't get a full hearing in the clip, so we don't know.
    It was a bold thing to say publically, but not something terrible she deserves scorn for. Just her speaking of other ways of sexual satisfaction makes me wonder. For all we know she might be some cool Susan Boyle in Texas, awful hair but not afraid to tell young women to get a Rabbit and not fall for Smilin' Slim.

    Ah dunno. Bartender!

    @Baroness: She was being sex-positive, actually--and sex-education-positive. But did she need to go into her sexual history to make her point? And what did it have to do with alcohol awareness? Anyway, for the full testimony, go to the link below--her testimony is under "item 2." I couldn't get the actual "view discussion" link to work--I had to use the "send item as an eclip" function to e-mail it to myself. It's RealPlayer.

    @Baroness: She's obviously not embarrassed by the fact that she is "technically" a virgin--she wanted to make a public statement about it. The fact that she testified on the wrong day is funny but kind of beside her point--she felt perfectly comfortable declaring her sexual status to the world.

    And because she declared this in a public forum--as opposed to some facebook page that was hacked--I don't have a problem with joking about her "presentation." I can't really imagine it would bother her much. We mock people who don't have sex because they aren't married, while she probably finds people who have sex while not married mockable (or damnable), too.

    Hey, if you can't figure out how to lose your virginity by the age of 56, then deciphering complex schedules has got to be way challenging as well!

    God, you stupid cow, being a virgin at age 56 is, basically, being a biological failure.

    She's not opposed to sex, she's only against nudity. And nobody can be embarrassed for making idiot remarks in Texas. It's like humiliation because you dress funny on Halloween.
