i think to a large extent the idea of feminine sexuality is accepted in the U.S. I mean dollyann – of course we still have major double standards surrounding that, but then i think about women in saudi arabia whose families hold public executions when they are caught having sex. i know it’s not relative, but i have a lot of appreciation for the fact that i can have sex freely – sure i get judged sometimes, but it doesn’t really affect me that much because i feel like i live in a society where people’s judgments are constantly questioned. on the other hand, it has bitten me in the ass (no pun intended) and it isn’t really fair the sexual standards that women get caught up in. as for ecuador, there might be a strong masculine machismo culture that opposes women’s sexual happiness….i think you are right about the critics not really thinking it’s silly. i mean look at the catholic church – i feel like the power of female sexuality scares them….silly….haha

ozymandiaz – haha i agree with you about subjugating women. we are evil after all right? i like how a lot of views i have read about concerning churches….such as the witch hunts in europe centuries ago – focused on women’s sexuality as evil and part of a covenant with the devil. and men like to think that they can always get a woman off, they all seem to be so sensitive about it! i can’t imagine if they were jailed for a failure to provide orgasm….

shannon – oh yes… how about “reeducation camps”? maybe we should just start teaching men how to give good head in sex education class, or at least drill the anatomy into them. i am so happy that i have had guys who know what they are doing, and not to mention they actually CARE about getting me off. there are not enough of those by far… but then i think about women in the 1950s…eck. i would be a secret lesbian.

thanks for your comments guys!

I wonder if they will start ‘sex schools’ where all men have to go (like conscription during war time) to learn how to please woman better……

Ah, utopia.

the only laws I have ever been familiar with (well, not FAMILIAR, but you know what I mean) concerning female sex or sexuality are pretty much there to stymie or subjugate being women are, well you know, the devil and such.
and I would imagine there would be great support for shoving men in jail for unsatisfactory sex. the last thing some dude would want to do is confess to the other inmates that the reason he is in is because he couldn’t please his woman
he he

How interesting… that’s something I probably wouldn’t have stumbled upon on my own. While Ecuador is conservative, I wonder what would happen if Maria were asking for the same thing in the US. Sure, American feminists have debates over the word slut and argue for a woman’s right to her own sexual agency, but do the majority really think a woman has a right to her own sexual happiness.

People against this law aren’t going to be people who think it’s just silly. If they thought that, they wouldn’t care one way or another if it passed. It’s people sincerely against women’s sexual fulfillment that will oppose it.
