WHEN Annie revealed that she'd slept with 300 people last year, the OF star went viral overnight. And while some supported Annie's antics, others were quick to judge her. Annie explained to Love Don't Judge: "I've had very mixed reactions. Some people have been super supportive and then I've had the majority of people judging me, saying that I'm riddled with STIs. That I'm not safe and that I'm disgusting." Annie also revealed that when it comes to sex, there's a clear inequality between men and women. "There's definitely a stigma with women being sexual as opposed to men. I think people accept men as being sexual beings, whereas women are seen as non-sexual beings, which is incorrect." Despite the harsh criticism, Annie remains unfazed by what people think and is determined to keep living the life that she wants to. Defending her daughter's escapades, Annie's mum, Karyn added: "You know what you're doing. Perhaps you're trying to show that a woman can have control of what she does in her life." Annie's friend, Alex, also had concerns of whether her mate was being safe in the bedroom. Annie explained: "I'm very safe because obviously with my work I have to be. You can only film with creators when you're clean, we do full STI checks every two weeks and practice using protection." Reflecting on her journey, Annie said: "What's the difference between a man sleeping with five people in a day and a woman sleeping with five people in a day? I don't understand why when a man does it, they celebrate it and call him a legend, but when a woman does it we're called names and ridiculed. It's just not fair."
