I'm sure I've mentioned once or twice how I feel about the concept of prizing virginity as precious gift to be protected by daddy, then handed over to a husband. I can't, for the life of me, get it to bother me that Conor has had sexual partners before me. Maybe I can't get it to bother me, since he has had fewer than I have. But I digress. That to say, I love LM Montgomery (authoress...her word...of the Anne of Green Gables series). And I love this quote:
"A man always asks to be a woman's first love; a woman wishes to be a man's last...I should not care how many predecessors I had; but I must have no successors!" - Lucy Maud Montgomery
Lucy had it right!

Also, I might not've been first but I'm the best.
At least in my own mind.
That is a brilliant quote. And so very true.

ReplyDeleteI was just reading a book on evolutionary psychology at B&N. Humans are naturally polygynous, so I'm not surprised people who are more open and less into "societal norms" don't feel threatened by it.
