Elena acting like a victim because Tracy wouldn't have sex with her


I thought this was beyond ridiculous. She really should have broken up with him if she couldn't handle being in a celibate relationship.

Also, can you imagine if it had been the other way around? Can you imagine if it had been a guy pressuring his girlfriend for sex and acting like the victim because she was saving herself for marriage? I can't even imagine the backlash that would have gotten, but somehow, because it's the woman who was trying to push sex on her boyfriend, they got away with it.

Elena just didn't seem to understand the idea that not everyone was into casual sex. She kind of mocked Noel when he told her he had slept with less than 10 women (and they were only about 20 at the time!) and told Felicity she had "issues with sex" because she didn't want to sleep with David after knowing him just a few weeks. I thought it was absolutely ridiculous that she was basically grilling Felicity about why she hadn't slept with either Ben or Noel. Who was she to criticize anyone's sex life? She slept with her professor for crying out loud, and she cheated on Tracy because she couldn't control herself.

Overall, I found Elena to be very annoying in this way.
