she's confident and sure of herself now, but Alice's parents' flippant attitude towards sex affected her growing up.

maybe she acted out - fooled around out of defiance, or out of a need to prove that she could define her sexuality on her own terms. or maybe the opposite happened - maybe she developed an aversion to sex, an anxiety and discomfort she had a hard time shaking because she didn't want to be like them.

we need a story about Alice discovering herself after struggling with her sexual identity/confidence.
