^I think its an important distinction to make that under normal circumstances she's never been someone that we know slept around a lot. It was only after her breakup with Lindsey and during the years of heavy drug use that her behavior could be questioned...and we all know that there were a lot of men in her life then...there is no denying that. Even she admits it. In the 2001 Downtown segment, Cynthia McFadden stated that Stevie readily admitted that there had been many men in her life. When she says "prudish" she's talking about the person that she is now and was when she was with Lindsey & before she became addicted to cocaine...something that most definitely altered her normal behavior. If it hadn't been for the drugs, she may never have become as wild as she did. Is there even a count of how many men she's been with since she got clean? I just don't think that who she is as a person should solely be defined by a time when drugs and addiction ruled her every decision. So is she really as prudish as she says...I've no idea...but at the time when those lyrics were written and she and Lindsey were still essentially still together...I don't think its fair to say she wasn't.
