The feminists held a “slut walk” in Chicago over the weekend. Nothing says feminism like women calling each other sluts. Their attempts to destigmitize the term slut by celebrating the sort of behavior that gets a girl labeled a slut says a lot about these folks. There’s nothing worse than “slut shaming,” which appears to be little more than calling a slut what she is. Interestingly one of the signs at the slut walk declared “all cops are bastards.” Apparently it’s acceptable to “slut shame” the mothers of police officers. None of the feminists saw the hypocrisy of such a sign.
This band of feminists wants to destroy America’s “rape culture.” If their goal was to severely punish men for forcible rape, most of the country would get right on board. However, that’s not the sort of rape they’re talking about. Just about everyone opposes forcible rape wherein a stranger overpowers a women and rapes her. Opposing that doesn’t create “change” and thus that isn’t what’s being talked about when rape culture is discussed. Instead what these people want to rid the world of amounts to whore’s remorse. They want to shift responsibility for a woman’s poor decisions onto men. So much for girl power.
On one hand feminists want women to be empowered to drink themselves to the point that they don’t remember what they’ve done. Such is empowering for women. However when a likely equally drunk man engages in sexual relations with a drunk woman the feminists want to cry sexual assault if the woman feels remorse about her poor decisions the next morning. We’re not talking about situations where some creep has drugged an unsuspecting woman, we’re talking about women who voluntarily get so drunk or high that they do foolish things they regret in the morning. Rather than feeling shame over their poor decisions, women are to “empower” themselves by crying sexual assault.
Universities across the country are following these standards. They’re expelling men over whore’s remorse. It’s never a woman’s responsibility when she engages in sexual conduct while drunk, the burden has shifted exclusively to men. These men are often equally drunk and make the same poor decisions. These decisions are evil but they aren’t sexual assault and they certainly aren’t rape. In many cases the men have the same whore’s remorse in the morning only instead of getting to blame someone else for their own foolish choices they get accused of sexual assault.
Our national morality has fallen so much that hooking up is almost the norm for college students. Getting drunk and engaging in sexual relations with strangers is common place. No doubt both sexes have their share of whore’s remorse in the morning. However, whore’s remorse does not mean that a sexual assault has occurred. Both sexes voluntarily drink to excess, they almost always voluntarily engage in sexual relations. Wishing you had said no in the morning does not equate a sexual assault. If women are so free and empowered to get drunk as a skunk than they’re must also be free and empowered to accept the consequences of their choices. Modern feminism wants all the freedom and empowerment with none of the consequences.
Guilty on all charges!
In the Bible, feeling shame was the thing that ultimately set them free.
She misspelled “Fat”.
Do T-shirts have auto-correct?
Follow the “slut walkers” along with a portable sound system blaring the audio of some porn flick.
Quick look at the “appropriate” genre: “slut training”
They’d be apoplectic in seconds, and the objective would be complete.
Their response would show that they feel...shame and stigma.
Thats what I thought it said too. the typeface for that is unfortunate.
Saw one carrying a sign..”Jesus Loves Sluts”.....
We have a lost society worldwide in full tilt.
Yes, they are. Get over it.
Better yet, instead of decrying a sound double standard, why not work to get men to act more conscientiously, instead of pushing women to act less?
Jesus does love sluts.
Doesn’t mean that He approves of what they do ...
Problem is that guys want to tell women how to act under their (guys) standards. So get over it already. It is a double standard.
I consider relationships to be mutual rather than one lording over the other. I know, it’s Biblical and all that but we are human beings too.
I prefer saying Jesus loves all those who he knows will one day come to him...the rest...well their doom is sealed.
Good lord,what an ugly bunch.

It’s not about “lording over”, it’s an explanation of what we see in human nature and why we see it.
Christianity is a way of life that requires we defeat that human nature.
Men are commanded to love their wives as Christ loved the Church, denying Himself and giving up his life for her.
These two shouldn’t USE their genitalia as WMDs.
This one victimized a lot of “women” and perhaps men if she got lucky!
