She’s been around the block…

She’s been around the block…

BY NICOLE NATION 

Many Jamaican men employ the double standard where they are allowed to play the field but their women should be angels, untouched and inexperienced. They will probe and probe until they know your sexual past, and if it was too risqué for them, for some, no matter how strong the love is, you won’t make it past the girlfriend zone.

There must be a reason behind the madness and so we asked men, would you enter a relationship with a woman who has a sexual history, but has never been in a long-term relationship?

John, 33:

I personally don’t judge people based on hear-say. I would want to get to know her as a person and then based on my interaction with her, I would make up my own mind about her. But I wouldn’t just write her off just so because other people tell me to. Everyone deserves a second chance, although in her case she would have had multiple chances.

Mark, 37:

For me, relationships are not based purely on sex, there’s more to them. Common interests, for instance, is another aspect of any relationship. And so for me I would be willing to be in a relationship with her and hopefully by being in a relationship with her I could help to build up her confidence. Hopefully the relationship could mature to a point where sex could be put on the table. Of course we would both have to do HIV tests, not just her, as I myself have not been a good boy.

Dane, 40:

To each his own. Yes, I would consider it. It depends on the stage of life that young lady is in. Maybe she has come to a point in her own life where she wants to turn over a new leaf and I could be that for her. I would be willing to be that for her.

Gordon, 31:

No, I wouldn’t, to tell you the honest truth. I would talk to her on a friend level but on no other terms. The world is getting too serious nowadays for me to even consider that. Plus look how many other girls are out there.

Chris, 28:

Yes, I would consider it. Like how she has been around the block a couple of times, she could teach me a thing or two, give me a brush up lesson…

Damion, 30:

Absolutely not! The Bible says that we mustn’t be unequally yoked. I will leave it at that.

Benjamin, 39:

No! In light of her track record or lack thereof I would say no. She’d be out of my league.

Andre, 40:

From I hear about her sexual history it is a major turn off for me. Chances are her past experiences have been so ingrained in her that she more or less doesn’t know how to function in a normal relationship. From the beginning our relationship would be doomed to fail. I don’t want any woman who is too easy to get. I would take my own advice and leave her alone. It’s the cheap girls that you always end up paying the most for.
