THAT'S
FINE

HOWEVER

OTHERS

KNOW

THE

THERE
IS
A
POINT
FOR
MANY

WHICH
THEY
REGARD
AS
THE

NO

AND
AS
I
SAY
IF
THEY
ARE
PERFECT
MEN
sp
MAYBE
THEY
CAN
TAKE
A
DEEP
BREATH

STOP

JUST
LIKE
THAT

STUDENTS
AT

WERE
ALMOST
UNANIMOUS
TODAY

THE

EVERYBODY'S
VERY
CONFUSED

MOST

NEARER
TO

PARTICULARLY
IN
ONE'S
EARLY
sp
YEARS
sp
AND
WE
MIGHT
LIKE
TO
GIVE
sp
CREDIT
sp
FOR
AND
I
sp
THINK
IT'S
REALLY
HARD
TO
LEARN
TO
READ
THE
SIGNS
sp
BOTH
PARTIES
THE
MAN
AND
THE
WOMAN
sp
SHOULD
ALWAYS
BE
IN
CONTROL
OF
THE
SITUATION
AND
IF
sp
FOR
SOME
REASON
THEY
WANT
THINGS
TO
STOP
SHOULD
HAVE
sp
THE
AUTHORITY
AND
THE
POWER
sp
TO
sp
DO
THAT
sp
BUT
SOME
WERE
LESS
SURE
I
sp
THINK
IF
A
GIRL
GOT
INTO

WITH

YOU

NO
CLOTHES
I
THINK
sp
THE
INTENTION
TO
HAVE
SEX
IS
sp
VERY
sp
CLEAR
sp
I'M
AGAINST
RAPE
BUT
DEFINITELY
IF
A
WOMAN
sp
ER
GOES
TO
A
MAN'S
sp
BED
THEN
IT'S
QUITE
sp
ER
sp
ER
SENSIBLE
THAT
IF
A
MAN
EXPECTS
TO
HAVE
SEX
WITH
THAT
WOMAN
SIMPLE
AS
THAT
sp
HOWEVER
SOCIAL
HISTORIANS
SAY
COUPLES
HAVING
NON
PENETRATIVE
SEX
GOES
sp
BACK
A
LONG
WAY
sp
A
PRACTICE
CALLED

BUNDLING
WAS
QUITE

THEY'D
JUST

sp
SOME

THE

HIGHER
