Iris acts like a middle school girl.

Disclaimer, I am 100% team Iris and Keith and I love both of them— but I’m signing up to marry a stranger on national television, I’m assuming there’s plenty of other things that will come up to rattle my comfort zone. Touching boobs is not that serious to me, but I’m a really sex positive person so maybe that’s part of it. I really meant i felt disappointment in response to her inability to at least be somewhat serious about some of the other ones, and how instead of just expressing her discomfort, she got real snappy. The edible body paint clearly worked fine for them but now people are dogging her for that. I think Iris has just gotten so into her head about what she should and shouldn’t do sexually that it’s created a wall for her. I was celibate for a few years and the same thing happened to me that when I finally made the choice to resume sexual activity, and maybe I have a soft spot with her bc of that. The first person I was hooking up with I had been into for yeaaaaaars, like the perfect partner for me, but I couldn’t bring myself to do it for about eight months. Sometimes it’s nice to have something silly to break you out of the “it’s inappropriate and I’m wrong for doing it” headspace.
