when it knocks you down

I listen to Nina Simone non-stop and just sit around and do my homework and think and shit. It's awesome.

Part of my thinking has been about this whole celibacy thing. I am having such conflicting feelings right now. In the past I know that I have indeed fucked people just to validate myself as an attractive and worthy woman. Obviously that is not healthy, but I really feel like with everyday I am re-assured in my role as a single woman and am able to embrace my sexuality as one. I think the most important thing for me is to not confuse sexual freedom with actual freedom and to not continue objectifying myself, even though I may just be being myself. Its just that general society obviously hasn't progressed enough to allow me to do so. Am I selling out, or giving in when I say that I should limit myself in how I dress or how I talk because I want to be seen as an assertive woman as opposed to a kinda slutty crazy girl? I don't know I don't know. I've never been one to give in. Shits real weird right now.
