second-rate heart

A poster on a blog I frequent wrote the following with regard to dating weenies who want women to dumb themselves down in order not to threaten them (and to be "sexy"):

"But I’ve yet to have sex that’s good enough to trade my self-respect for. Sure, it’s always risky, but you gotta balance whether the risk is actually worth it."

What disturbed me so much about this was the realization that this is likely what my last relationship was largely based on. Trading the entirety of my self-respect for the best sex of my life, that is. What a scary thing to recognize.
