Being a slut isn’t disgusting. Actually if you think about it the term ‘Slut’ is really just a empty insult. What is a Slut? Really? Ask 10 different people and you’ll get 10 different definitions. The only thing they have in common is a lady who steps out of line. Who doesn’t adhere by societal standards of “appropriate” or modest expression of sexuality. Being Slut isn’t so much “shameful” as it is a social construct, so I MY theory, being a Slut means you’re stepping outside these sexist societal bounds, you are exploring, enjoying, and doing so in a way that you want to (consensually ), not in a way others expect you to.

and NONE of them asked for it.

In almost all crimes of sexual violence — between 80 and 90 percent — the victim and assailant know each other.

Because of their constant fear of rape (conscious or not), women do things throughout the day to protect themselves. Whether it’s carrying our keys in our hands as we walk home, locking our car doors as soon as we get in, or not walking down certain streets, we take precautions … The fact that certain things women do are so ingrained into our daily routines is truly disturbing. It’s essentially like living in a prison — all the time.
