Seriously, after all the recent are-we-doing-it-or-not controversy, are you even surprised?!
I went out with this guy a couple of months ago and during the course of our conversation he very simply stated that I was prude. In a manner that conveyed that he had always thought so.
I then took this online test: How much of a prude are you?
And on a scale of 0 - 100, I scored 75. Well.
I hate to break this to you, but you’re a tad on the uptight side. You tend to squirm at the mention of any “taboo” subject like sexuality, and have low tolerance for public nudity or vulgar language. Essentially, you’re a prude - which, by the way, is not such a bad thing. Maybe you’ve simply got high moral standards, or were raised to believe that certain things are just not meant for open discussion. You might even be an innocent person who’d rather not be tainted by the seedy side of life. There could be, however, a negative side to your prim and proper view of life; you may be ignoring some issues that really need to be discussed, not to mention missing out on some fun! Communication about sex, for example, is important for healthy intimate relationships, so don’t be shy! And activities a little on the “wild” side, like skinny-dipping for example, could be a real blast if you’d just let go of your inhibitions. Try opening your mind a bit, and you might discover that sometimes naughty is actually quite nice!
And I found this definition from Urban Dictionary
Prude - taken from the term “prod femmes” in pre-revolutionary France, meant that they were proud, wise, virtuous women. These days, it’s more of a discriminatory word, stating that women could be “too” proper, too wise, and so on, especially when not interested in sex. It’s also a word men *think* they can use in order to get women to perform sexual favors with them, and in order to put them down a notch - which in fact is absolute ***. The word prude may not seem like a good term, but it in fact is a compliment suggesting a lesser id and a higher intelligence and a stronger will and confidence than most.
Thank you, I am suitably complimented. I think.

You know something? While I don’t agree with some of your views I really respect you for your courage of conviction. Too many people ‘believe’ in things out of fear or because it is fashionable too (which is another kind of fear again). But you stand for what you believe in and that makes you complete. Here’s to your brand of subtle individuality, lady.

@ Ashish: Will visit Ashish!
@ IdeaSmith:
We should form a mutual admiration society, you know I “I don’t agree with some of your views but I really respect you for your courage of conviction” too

It takes courage to say things about yourself like that! Especially from bloggers who are narcissistic by nature
Thanks for “sparkling” with yr thoughts!

But, yes, it is good when one can be honest with oneself about who one is - and I think it’s even better still to laugh at oneself… I think it’s very good to do that once in a while.
