Casual sex is a con: women just aren’t like men

Former groupie Dawn Eden explains how she realised morality made more sense for women than free love
This is really good reading for a look at why waiting for marriage is important from someone who rode the wave of sexual freedom and found it was not a good thing.
The misguided, hedonistic philosophy which urges young women into this kind of behaviour harms both men and women; but it is particularly damaging to women, as it pressures them to subvert their deepest emotional desires. The champions of the sexual revolution are cynical. They know in their tin hearts that casual sex doesn’t make women happy. That’s why they feel the need continually to promote it.
These days I live a very different kind of life. I still touch base with old musician pals now and again, but I’m more likely to hang out with members of church choirs. I am chaste. My decision to resist casual sex was, once again, influenced by my mother — though not in the way she initially hoped.
