“While men had the right to obey their biological urges, women had to suppress theirs until the perfect moment. From television, movies, books, magazines, my peers, and even some of my relatives, I was taught that if a woman allowed a man to penetrate her too soon, she was too easy of a conquest for him. He would move on to pursue greater challenges after he was finished using her body to relieve his sexual urges. If the woman waited too long to let the man enter her body, she was a prude and the man would eventually give up on her. Women needed to time this process perfectly so that she could “keep” a man in her life at all times. It was the man’s goal to catch the woman and the woman’s goal to keep the man.” FeministNavyFeminist AuthorsMaggie Young QuotesMaggie YoungJust Another NumberFeminist MemoirJust Another Number QuotesMilitary SexismThird Wave Feminism Book:Just Another Number Source: Just Another Number
