The SlutWalk has redefined the word 'slut'. From now on, every woman is apparently a 'slut'. :nervous:

Girls wanna ....
Dress like a slut
Walk like a slut
many diff men like a slut
Act like a slut
Have some serious STDs all over their face and poom poom, like a slut
But they get offended when we call them a slut?
I honestly think, most girls want to be slut ... but are to a shamed to be labeled as a slut by everyone, even girls.
Halloween is just an excuse for girls to dress like sluts.
I remember this one girl I dated in the past, she asked me to her very aggressively and rape her .... (OOOOOOooooOOOK?) But when she "taps out", it means stop it right away. (OOOOOOooooOOOK?) I didn't agree to this at all and this would indeed warp my mind for the future gf for sure.

It's like you have a key that will open any door in the world. Now that's a pretty awesome key. Now imagine a lock that can be opened by any key in the world. Why would anybody be proud of that lock?

Yes I know that saying ... If you're the village bicycle, you're the village bicycle and thats that. Nothing can be said and done, if you really enjoy ing that much.
I remember back in college, I had this ed up prof. I once made a comment about Marilyn Monroe and she just yelled at me, "that's double standards and you can't be like that an blah blah blah"
There use to be a security guard at System that talked about all these girls he ed and how he's trying to keep track of them. I personally didn't find it cool at all, dude most likely had HIV and .

BOSTON - An international series of protests known as slut walks, sparked by a Toronto police officer's flippant comment that women should avoid dressing like "sluts" to avoid being raped or victimized, is taking root in the United States.
Some women and men who protest dress in nothing more remarkable than jeans and T-shirts, while others wear provocative or revealing outfits to bring attention to "slut-shaming," or shaming women for being sexual, and the treatment of sexual assault victims.
"It was taking the blame off the rapist and on the victim," said Nicole Sullivan, 21, a student at the University of Massachusetts-Boston and an organizer of the SlutWalk planned Saturday in that city. "So we are using these efforts to reclaim the word 'slut.'"
The police officer made his comments in January to a group of York University students at a safety forum. He later apologized, but his comments were publicized widely on Facebook and Twitter. They inspired a march in Toronto last month that drew more than 3,000 people, as well as slut walks since then in Dallas, Asheville, N.C., and Ottawa, Ontario.
In addition to Boston, marches are planned in cities including Seattle; Chicago; Philadelphia; Reno, Nev.; and Austin, Texas.
"The event is in protest of a culture that we think is too permissive when it comes to rape and sexual assault," said Siobhan Connors, 20, of Lynn, Mass., another Boston organizer. "It's to bring awareness to the shame and degradation women still face for expressing their sexuality ... essentially for behaving in a healthy and sexual way."
The events are similar to "Take Back the Night" rallies and other marches that aim to bring attention to sexual violence. But there are key differences.
SlutWalkers have danced to hip-hop, worn T-shirts with the word "slut" and held signs that read "sluts pay taxes." Some women have skated around on Rollerblades in lingerie, while their male supporters wore shirts reading, "I love sluts."
The rallies typically end with speakers and workshops on stopping sexual violence and calling on law enforcement agencies not to blame victims after sexual assaults.
In San Francisco, SlutWalk organizers want to make their protest a family event.
"Singles, couples, parents, sisters, brothers, children, friends," the SlutWalk SF BAY Facebook page announces. "Come walk or roll or strut or holler or stomp with us."
Connors said organizers had initially planned for about 100 people to attend the Boston event; by Thursday, more than 2,300 had responded to a Facebook shout-out. Another 2,000 people have similarly committed to attend the SlutWalk Seattle on June 19.
"Everything happened organically," Sullivan said.
The officer who made the comments, Const. Michael Sanguinetti, was disciplined but remains on duty, Toronto police spokesman Mark Pugash said Thursday.
"We said at the time that his comments were entirely unacceptable, that they didn't reflect in any way what we train and teach our people," Pugash said.
Pugash wouldn't comment on the movement the officer's comments have spawned.
The Boston SlutWalk group has had to delete several "inappropriate comments" about women and faced criticism from a group that promised to organize a counter "Pimp Walk" in Boston, Connors said.
"We think it was put there as a joke, but it's disturbing that a number of young people still feel that way," said Connors, referring to sexist comments left on the page.
Pages dedicated to other cities' SlutWalks also deleted inappropriate comments.
Connors said the Boston SlutWalk will proceed from the Government Center to the Boston Commons.

In an ideal world, women would wear whatever they want, and their risk of being sexually harassed or assaulted wouldn't increase. In reality, it does. It's unfortunate that those are the facts, but they are.
If a woman wants to decrease the chance that she will be be sexually harassed/assaulted or raped, then she will be mindful of the way that she dresses. No matter that the person committing the crime is 100% guilty and should be punished, there are steps that one can take to avoid becoming a victim, and dressing appropriately is one of those things.
The common analogy is that of a rich man walking through a poor section of town. If he wants to decrease his chances of being robbed, he will not wear his armani suit with a rolex on full display while counting the 3 grand he keeps in his wallet. Even though the people robbing him are 100% guilty and at-fault for the crime, he could have decreased his chances of being robbed in the first place by dressing appropriately in a cheap t-shirt and jeans and keeping his money in the bank, or at least in his pocket.
It's simply a method of managing risk, rather than placing blame, which is squarely in the perpetrator's, and not the victim's, hand.
Well said!
