Hi Maggie. Not only do I enjoy your writing style, you covered this topic perfectly. I agree whole heartedly with your points and conclusions. And then there is this thing. You made me think of a guy I know. In middle age he left his wife for another woman similar in age to him. She had also been married. Yet… he could not STAND the fact that she had sexual relationships before she met him. His own sexual history was just fine by him. Obviously this guy suffered from “damaged goods syndrome “… another burden foisted only on women…
