You have sexual standards? Too bad.

People have lives of their own. They have lives without you. They had lives before you came along into theirs. No one belongs to you. The world does not revolve around you, get over it. Or don't, and don't be surprised if people don't apologize for being their own person and don't worship you above all else like you might think you should be.
and
Listen I don't know how old you are, but most adults have had multiple sexual partners. And that isn't a bad thing. If you get mad at your adult partner or take it personally when you learn she has had previous sexual encounters when she didn't know you, you're what we call a "child."

Not getting upset that your partner didn't predict the future and save herself just for you doesn't mean you don't give a sh** about her, it means you realize that she's a person. After all, I'm sure you (who knows) might eventually have multiple partners. When you move on when it inevitably doesn't work out the first couple times, it's not like you unbang those girls. Does having been with them suddenly make you undateable to every other girl? After all, they have standards, why would they want to be with someone who has had a sexual past with some other girls?

If you go into life looking for relationships, and are emotionally damaged by everyone that isn't a virgin for you, you're going to have a rough time out there champ.
Of course it's a bad thing. Why? It most definitely has formed their view on sex and sex practices. If they have any kids the advice that will be used will most likely be "Just use birth control, please." They don't want to deal with the natural consequences of sex. They're fine with their teenagers or young adult "kids" having sex but they're not fine with a possible baby due to sex.

And what's with this "she's a person" claptrap? Yea, she's "a person" but just because her significant other has issues, even minor issues, about his girlfriend's past sexual relationship does not, in anyway, mean he isn't seeing her as "a person." If we give into "da feelz" and be all "whatev, hon," then we help grow the indifference that pervades modern sexual norms.

Because "I'm a person."

Because "no one belongs to you." Then why the f_ck do people commit to a romantic relationship then? Why do people want to get married to their lover? Go tell that to all the elderly couples who have been married 30+ years. They'll say they belong to each other and no one else.
