“Masturbating? Ew, gross!”
“She fucked him. Can you believe that slut?”
“You’re not one of those losers who watches porn, are you?”
These phrases and others like them began to invade Amanda’s mind. Things from her past that had been said to her and had stuck with her throughout many years. She recalled strange feelings she’d had in her life, feelings of discomfort and anxiety when faced with the ideas of sex and sexual expression.
She remembered hastily and fearfully exiting off of random pornographic ads. She remembered her parents annoyed expressions as they would fast-forward through sex scenes in films, even though she was more than old enough to watch them. She remembered the night she lost her virginity, what a huge step it was for her, and how progressively free and better about herself she’d felt in the few short years that followed.
Though, within the last hour, Amanda had said and done things she could still hardly believe, somehow it all felt so perfect. It was as if she was finally acting as who she really was, and was meeting herself for the first time.
