6 Reasons To Embrace Your 'Walk Of Shame'

There should be no shame in people knowing that you just got laid.

6 Reasons To Embrace Your 'Walk Of Shame'
The Cut

First of all, I don't understand why the term "walk of shame" is a thing. There should be no shame in people knowing that you just got laid, had a great time, and that you just happen to be wearing the same clothes you were the night before. But, that's just me, and I have no shame whatsoever. Plus, sex is a natural part of life, so I remain flabbergasted whenever I hear the term.

So here goes nothing.

1. Sex was bomb!

Juices were flowing, emotions were high, and you probably had a good few rounds. You had one night to let loose and have fun, and because of that, you should hold your head high.

2. Have no shame to your game!

You got your freak on because you are young, wild, and free. It is your body, and you can exercise it as you see fit. It is important that you have your Beyonce "Partition" moments while you strut to "Crazy In Love" as you make your way home.

Put some extra pep in your step, sway your hips a little, and when people stare at you, stare right back at them.

3. You just might have learned a thing or two.

Sex is fun and educational, so as you learned to please your partner for the night, you might have learned a thing or two for your next hookup or relationship.

4. Appearances are everything.

So what if you're wearing the same clothes you wore the night before? You own it (I would hope), so you can repeat it as much as you want. Also, enjoy an internal victory moment if you happen to not be wearing any underwear. It's your own little secret.

And if your hair and makeup are a bit unkempt, well... it shows that you had a fucking awesome night. You may even take a picture to remember the night. It will make a good story someday.

5. The "glow" is real.

There is nothing better than being somewhere after a wild night out, and you cannot help but remember all the things that you did. People will probably ask you why you are in such a good mood. It is up to your discretion if and what information you disclose to them.

6. Screw people and their opinions.

MAJOR KEY : Embrace your sexuality, sexiness, and sport that BIG FLASHING SCARLET LETTER proudly because your vagina is happy, even if it is just for a day. And if people start making snide comments tell them, "Hoe is life!" and ask them to stop policing your vagina.

You'll probably render them speechless. The middle finger works wonders too!

Lastly, life should be lived without regrets, and people should embark on as many adventures as possible because life's too short. So, if that adventure happens to be a man who you want to climb on one particular night, as long as there is consent, go for it. Sex should not be shameful!

Also, stay safe.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?
