Why I’m Still Skeptical Of Marriage

Why I'm Still Skeptical Of Marriage

So a lot has been written on this here website about marriage: imaginary weddings, real weddings, marriage equality for gay people, desire to marry, pressure for to marry, etc. I have even puzzled out my own unexpected case of wedding fever. Hell, Ashley and Jennifer take a moment out of each week to decide which fictional character/animal/wheat product they would marry, given the opportunity.

But one position that’s been underrepresented is that oft-caricatured hallmark of second-wave feminism: skepticism. Believe it or not, there are plenty of reasons for a person, male or female, to be reluctant to participate in this storied institution, and they don’t all have to do with hating men or burning our bras.

This past weekend, “Mama” June Shannon, mother of 7-year-old pageant queen/reality TV star Alana “Honey Boo Boo” Thompson, exchanged vows with her partner Mike “Sugar Bear” Thompson in the backyard of their McIntyre, GA home.

It’s Not Slutty If…

It's Not Slutty If...
It's not slutty if ... you met him at a wedding.
It's not slutty if ... he took you out to breakfast the next day.
It's not slutty if ... he didn't come (and you did).
It's not slutty if ... the sex was bad.
It's not slutty if ... he's ugly.
