Debauchery

A virtuous woman, she had never been one.

Hedonism, excitement, exposure, sensuality, pleasure, carnality, mundaneness. If it weren’t for her contradictory respect for others, these words would have shaped all her days. She had to tame herself, though. Sacrifice her desires for love, work, family.

Replace the debaucheries with some sensibility — that is how her life had been saved from complete decadence a couple of times already.

A social beast, she had turned into.
