Well, you certainly haven't seen what I've been saying.  I don't think
either of the two "problems" you mention are problems.  I don't care if
she is disrespectful towards Christianity, and I have nothing against
promiscuity.  Neither do I care whether or not she has posed nude or
been in sexually explicit movies.

As I have repeatedly said before, I object to her because she promotes
being a tease and using sex as a tool of manipulation rather than as a
natural form of joy and communication.
