I think I must have been raised the same way. In the past, I've done things for pleasure, only to feel ashamed of myself later. It seem that by being so "proper", I totally lost touch with my femininity. I did what "ladies" are supposed to do, and didn't realize there was so much more.

For me, now, since I've started exploring BDSM, it's opened up a whole new world for me. My senses, my emotions, everything is so much more heightened. I feel that what I do isn't hurting anyone, and I only give this side of me to one person, who happens to be my husband.

I think virtue does have it's place for those it's important to.

In my opinion, it's about being true to yourself.
