Imagine a conversation between a guy and a girl:
— You know, I’m afraid to marry you.
— Why?
— Well, you’re not the first for me, and in general, you’re clearly available. You’ve had a few men before me.
— But if I hadn’t been available, you wouldn’t have met me at all, right?
— That’s true, but still, I want some kind of reliability.
— Wait, you said yourself that you value my experience in sex. But how can one gain experience without having had other men before you or living all that time married to just one husband?
— Well, if you were married to one person for a long time, that would be a different story. It would be a sign of loyalty.
— Even if we consider that it wasn’t me who broke up with the guys, but they left me hanging?
— Well, who can figure out what really happened now?
— What kind of girl needs to run from guy to guy, and what usually happens?
— Well, guys usually break up with girls more often. They have the advantage in that. But if you’ve been dumped a lot, it means you’re not a good girlfriend.
— And you don’t consider the possibility of “used and discarded”?
— No. In any case, it’s best to deal with trustworthy girls.
— But then, as a decent and reliable girl, a loyal friend to my husband, with whom I’ve been married for several years, I wouldn’t respond to your advances. And my experience would be more about adapting to one partner rather than about sex and understanding what men like. And can I sum it up: you want a girl who is both experienced and chaste, loyal and available, right?
— Yes…
— Well, give it a try and look for it.
Why do a guy’s demands seem ridiculous, while similar demands from employers are seen as perfectly normal?
