5:42 i think the term for that is "closed door" romance, the scene itself is not described but the reader is informed that sex happened or is about to happen.
15:13 i was raised southern baptist but by parents who encouraged me to think for myself and our family left the church when I was about 10: I struggled with my "sexual" nature with my first boyfriend, but it was solely because he was manipulative and felt his own guilt and wanted me to feel the same.
35:45 when I was in my late teens/early twenties my best friend cheated a few times. I would always cover for her but she knew my covering for her came with a conversation after the fact. She also knew my covering for her was not a sign of approval of her actions
6:37 what kind of books do the people you asked to read your work normally read? I read a lot of "smutty" romance and and sexually forward female protagonist doesn't give me pause
17:55 my husband has been a gentleman the entire time I've known him, i had to *ask* him to objectify me occasionally. If it's done in moderation by someone who also has respect for you it can be healthy
