“It’s always been important to me, as it’s for my generation, a most relevant consideration when you’re growing up. Sex doesn’t mean nothing; sex means so much. I hope that young women know that sex is still a big deal, and they don’t have to put out soon. If they want someone to court them for a while before they give it up, that’s wonderful and beautiful, and a man will only respect you more for honoring your body. I am that way.”
Lady Gaga talking about her personal relationships and sex life? Not standard operating procedure. In terms of the message? She’s sort of missing the point. When it comes to having or not having sex, you shouldn’t make the decision based on whether it’ll earn a man’s affection or respect. Unless that man happens to be Ryan Gosling. Then you better do whatever it takes.
