They won't understand it because they don't understand Ariana Grande, or anyone else who doesn't fit neatly into their antiquated mold of what a woman should be. They give us two options—virgin or whore—and that dichotomy can be an especially difficult one to defy when you laid the groundwork for your career at a super-young age.
