I read this book and if it's about sluts, people should remember that every one them is somebody's little girl.

The women is this book are upper middle class achievers going to prestige schools. They aren't bad girls, they are girls who don't feel that they can say "No" in a college culture that would punish them for that. In their world, being sexual is a way of demonstrating feminism and freedom. They don't have a framework for chastity that doesn't include ridicule.

Almost all of the "lesbians" on college campuses are actually straight girls who either pretend to have sex with their roommates or who allow themselves to be be mistaken for lesbians in order to avoid the hookup culture. Lesbians can't be criticized for anything in colleges and so they are never questioned or socially punished for not hooking up.

This can only be true if said girls accept literally any and every guy that propositions them. The fat and "ugly" college guys aren't getting sex from these girls.

Mostly unwed sluts raising sluts, regardless of socio-economic level. Or, does money make one "nice", and lack of it make one "bad"?

Sluts usually don't become sluts on their own; they're raised that way, so that "somebody" whose little girl she is has only to look in the mirror for whom to blame.

If they don't like the appelation, they shouldn't have enabled her to be one.

When the 'feel bad' term fits, liberals outlaw the term; we don't. /rant>
