Woah. WOAH.

You're not "practically a nun" if you refuse to engage in sex acts with strangers.

If you ARE willing to engage in sex acts with strangers, particularly those determined by jelly bracelets--you're a disgusting slut.

One would hope the jelly bracelets didn't mean with complete strangers?
I would certainly only indulge in anything more than hugging and on-the-cheek-kissing with someone I knew exceptionally well and was almost certainly going out with.

So like, you can use the bracelets as a sort of sexual business card? CREEPY.

According to the chart we have here there are several acts listed more than once on more than one color. Wouldn't it become confusing? Especially green. I mean, you could be thinkin' "YIPPIE!" and wind up with only a hug!

The scarves around the waist? I'm thinkin' Stevie Nicks, pirates, and belly dancers.

Very, very seriously.

Needless to say, I never wore them. (shudders)

But I understand that to most people, they were just the current trend.
Yes.. when I was in sixth grade, quite a few of the "popular girls" (sluts) were screwing guys in the bathrooms because of those bracelets.. SIXTH GRADE!!!!!

I guess I'm a disgusting slut, then. I don't determine my sexual partners by their bracelet, but I have nothing against safe, smart, consensual sexual encounters with people to whom I'm physically attracted. If doing what I want with who I want makes me a slut, then so be it, I suppose.

Woooooo sluts! I guess that makes me one too.

But getting back to the topic of scarves around the waist, I just think "pirates, pirates, pirates!"

I'm sorry if I offended you, but I stand by what I say.
I don't think you should stop doing anything, but I treat sex very carefully.

I'm not easily offended.

I also treat sex carefully. You think that simply because I believe that it's alright to have sex outside of a committed relationship I get laid all the time? Ha! If I were to get laid frequently, I'd be inviting a lot of nasty people into my bed and it isn't happening. If I have sex with someone, it's because I want to, not because I want other people to think I can get laid, which is what my definition of a slut is: Someone who has sex for any reason other than because they actually want to (i.e., status quo, to gain something).

I don't think I implied that anywhere.

(Laughs) No, no, that's not what I meant. I mean that I'm still uncomfortable with physical intimacy and don't engage in any type of sexual activity. While not bad in itself, I also tend to blush whenever people go on about their own exploits. (Endless amusement for my friends, believe me)

I have to agree that the bracelets are a bit disgusting when taken seriously...just kind of "eww".

As for colors meaning several different things, as far as I remember, if there was that type of leeway, it was the wearer's choice.
