Her openness about this experience showed her zest in trying new things. As she put it, "Why not try everything at least once?"

Still a fanboy at heart

Though she ventured down this unexpected path, Luann remains firm in her preference. "I'm all about men," she confirmed, "but her enthusiasm was hard not too hard too resist.
