Cinder a ho, yes or no?

Cinder was the girl that initiated the contest between Angel and Ferris. She bragged about her own sex life and seemed too concerned with the rest of the girls in that respect. Did she really walk the walk or was it mostly embellishment? A lot of guys brag about conquests to strangers because they know it can't be disputed. I think this may have been the case with Cinder. Even if she did get around, that doesn't make her better than the rest of the girls as she thought it did. As we saw toward the end of the film once the truth was revealed, everyone turned against her because of her arrogance.

The question is: Was she telling the truth about her promiscuity, or was she just lying and posing too (but too arrogant to admit it, even after everyone else acknowledged their virginity)?

I took it that she was one of those girls who are attentionfines with low self-esteem(or other issues) and are power hungry pathological liars--or to sum it up, the typical queen bee/meangirl of the pack(every teen-angst drama has one lol).

My money would go on her being a virgin, or not and just a girl who feels guilt about being taken advantage of by an older man/HSsenior boy(they're only with young girls for one reason and that isn't love) and wants to feel better about the mistake she made.

Didn't you love it when that narcissistic beauty got punched in the face?

[–] SenileFelines 17 years ago

Best punch ever. Her right hook was unbelievable!

I knew girls like her in middle school. I think she was lying.

But wasn't she the one snogging her boyfriend pretty heavily when she got off the bus home at the end? I know there's a shot of a couple passionately embracing and kissing - was that Cinder or was it someone else? I think she probably did have sex with her "fiance", but nevertheless, she was as insecure as everyone else - nowhere near as sophisticated or as emotionally secure as she pretended. She talked the other girls down to make herself feel like this was an actual choice she'd made, and I'm not certain that she didn't just have sex to keep her older boyfriend.

God save Donald Duck, vaudeville and variety

She was kissing her boyfriend pretty heavily at the start of the film too. I'm sure she's had sex.

I don't think she was a virgin. I think she had extremely low self esteem (...after all, she was the "before girl" in the commercial she did. Talk about an ego boost *sarcasm*) and probably had sex as she thought that was the way to makes guys like her. I'll bet she embellished how great and wonderful it was.

[–] phelpssue 16 years ago

Think she had probably had sex at least once or maybe twice
and just talked as if she was a seasoned pro at it. Remember,
she was really manipulative and pushy and that probably intimidated
the other girls so they just didn't have the nerve to argue with her.

[–] MissMillie420 16 years ago

Not to mention she ended up on Matt Dillon's arm...

Yeah, my money say's she was really easy with low self esteem.

Here's to those who wish me well...

[–] ljcostello_22 15 years ago

She seemed like that type that was sexually active but tried to "justify" it by referring to the older boy as her "finace". He no doubt goes along with it to keep getting some.
She strikes me as one of those incredibly miserable people that think they are all that and end up missing out on reality. I love the way the other girls finally told her off.

i thought cinder was an amazing character. she was an out and out bitch and i believe she was just playing up how bad she was.

[–] Lisa_Rogers 15 years ago

In the movie, she says she went all the way at 14. I think the other girls were around 15, so I guess she had been doing it for about a year maybe..
