The writer is saying that at least part of the reason that she contracted genital herpes is because people called her a "slut."
Of course she's wrong. The reason - the only reason - that she got genital herpes was because she had sex with someone who had genital herpes.

But we can still call conservatives “teabaggers” right?

Why wouldn’t Sandra attach her name to the article?

Heres the
original article on TakePart.com; the author (looks like a pen name) is one Jenelle Marie.
Talk about a false dilemma. Its the
absence of so-called shaming that is encouraging the behavior that spreads the disease. The author really has misplaced the blame here, has she not; wallowing in self-pity.

What’s amazing to me is that these young intellectual giants wonder why no one will hire them.

Dude, that was her point. Science is hard; therefore she LIKES science. And wood working. And hard subjects in general. She studies a hard subject with a different study partner every night!
But don’t you DARE imply she’s a slut! You bully. You are now responsible for whatever outcome she may experience. Damn. Life is HARD. And that’s good!
On the other hand, I don’t remember anything about a b-but. Although if her b-but was involved that wouldn’t surprise me.

The omission was purely a fluke.

Sounds like the VD has done some pretty bad damage to her brain.

I notice that Leftists are trying to take away appropiate negative descriptions to slutty behavior. Imo, the goal is to normalize the behavior and encourage more of it.

But wouldn’t you know it, they will likely keep calling each other sluts anyhow, just like so many black people in our oh so enlightened society insist on calling each other the n-word. But don’t you dare call them a slut (or the n-word) if you are an outsider.

And the only reason the person who gave her herpes had herpes was because they slept with someone else who had herpes...
People who think it’s morally wrong to sleep around are the problem. If only we’d quit pointing out the simple truths, like Biblical morality is wise from a practical as well as a spiritual standpoint, immoral people would be far happier and healthier. This is like the argument that we make homosexuals unhappy, like we’re haters if we don’t think it’s OK for two guys to play in orifices designed, by nature, to excrete waste.

I think they want the same goals as Satan. Seriously. Satan knows he’s doomed. He can’t change that, but he can still take pleasure in destroying something, US, that God loves. The same thing goes for corrupt sinners. They want to #1 justify their own actions and #2 take as many other people as possible with them. I think they think it will make them feel better if everyone does what they do. That’s why they despise and ridicule anyone with standards.
