> Now as an adult, I embrace my feminine side and sometimes even dress to draw attention to myself. It's all confusing because my husband will react (and like it) but then I get mad.I never dressed or looked like a boy, but I am really hyper aware of when I am too sexy looking. I am always asking hubby, "is this okay to wear out in public? Is this too tight? Too revealing? etc." He answers honestly, and I trust his judgement, but really, the outfit I ask him about is still probably way conservative by others standards. Cleavage? Never!

> I can see how agression and sex would play into your life after a rape. I was never raped, but have had a sexual situation in college where I felt a kind of pressure to have sex. Anyway, sex is an agressive act, isn't it?sigh, I do think of it as aggressive. It's definitely an intrusion, even when invited.

> Anyway, I guess Freud figured out that so much of life comes down to our parents and sex at our core. Pretty daunting task to be a parent.Perhaps that's why I'm childless still. Too much to deal with. Oh lordy...that could also have to do with the sex. Maybe I am afraid of getting pregnant? yikes.
