So, has anybody been on a slut walk yet?
 

Apparently the San Fran one is going to be mid June. I have been talking to the people planning it. Our industry, especially feels as if it should be involved.

I think they are a good idea. Any reason to get women dressed slutty is a good idea.

I support the women. They need to be free to express themselves.

I tried , but they told me I was'nt slutty enough:upsidedow

Some Canadian cop (mountie?) said a rape victim brought it upon herself for dressing like a slut, or something to that nature. Now people are protesting by marching in "slut walks" in which some dress "slutty", some don't, but with the same goal in mind.

they had some in the major cities across canada early last month.

Coming to London soon.... they deserve support

We call that a "pub crawl"

;-)

interesting concept

What if one of the women gets raped, does that make the cop right?

It would be terrible I know but wasn't he just trying to prevent rape, that is his job.

I didn't realize it was a movement...

Slut Power!!! :female

ADG

Nothin wrong with being a slut!

Well they better not complain if they get raped. Fucking sluts.

Bunch of chicks who shouldn't............dressing slutty

slutwalk.net isnt even registered yet. Looks like just the .com and .org are parked. Someone who likes to blog could probably make a few dollars off the domain.

Sounds like a stupid idea ... I'm in!

Yes, because it would be the fault of her clothing and not the guy that raped her.

You should bring some of your models on the San Fran event.

Slut walks happen every day here in Vegas...

Have you considered the possibility that the officer's comments were not intended to assign fault but to prevent rape.

Perhaps he was not intending to offend people by calling girls sluts but rather used an incorrect term for individuals that dress in sexually provocative attire?

Prostitutes dress in a sexually provocative manner in an attempt to arouse potential customers.

Based on this one could extrapolate the hypothesis that sexually provocative ["slutty" in his vernacular] clothing stimulates men. So such clothing could potentially sexually stimulate a rapist and thereby potentially increasing the risk of an attack.

Where does the assignment of blame or fault come in?

Maybe he communicated his feelings incorrectly and this whole "movement" is just a bunch of sluts and attention whores parading around with no real cause.

Anyway, most of the females posted above don't look like they have much to worry about.

marches and political theatre of that type dont accomplish all that much.

but I'd support it if it happened anywhere near me. I wouldn't do the theatre, but I'd give them money, or the equivalent of money.

Although I am sometimes referred to as the "Slut Whisperer" (aka the "Whores Whisperer"), I don't think I have the patience to be model herding at a slut protest.

Thanks for the invite anyway... :)

ADG

he blames the victim for the crime (and he is a policeman? )

It was the banks fault it got robbed - it had all that money...


"marches and political theatre of that type dont accomplish all that much."

Other than civil rights, end vietnam war, trade union rights, voting, etc etc

It isn't blaming a victim it is a warning of the perils of reality in our evolving yet still imperfect society where savages remain.

Blinding yourself in a politically correct bubble does not prevent the dangers that this policeman was warning of.

Nice to see somebody who gets it. :thumbsup

What are the SF dates? They are supposed to march in Austin too.

so it WAS that incident lol

it was a judge who went the 'he said she said' route.. then he said she had it coming cause she dressed all sexy like and walked into the forest

he raped her? you should report your facts to the police and the court if you have further information

unless of course, you're just speculating and mostly upset that the old ass judge would say something stupid

it's not like the streets are safe for everyone.. but i see the value and purpose of a bunch of women dressing like sluts to protest a 'he said she said' ruling

makes sense.

“You know, I think we’re beating around the bush here,” the officer said, according to Hoffman. “I’ve been told I’m not supposed to say this, however, women should avoid dressing like sluts in order not to be victimized.”

“I made a comment which was poorly thought out and did not reflect the commitment of the Toronto Police Service to the victims of sexual assaults,” Const. Michael Sanguinetti wrote on Thursday to Osgoode Hall Law School where he made the comment.

Why don't we let our daughters, nieces, kids dress like sluts? So people don't get the wrong idea about them. Works for adults too.

I'm all for sexy dressing, but the argument is making the cop into the villain more than the rapist here...

It's the same as arguing that women should not be told to avoid walking in dark alleys in the ghetto at night. Sure, they should have the right to, nobody should make it against the law, but it's not very safe is it? Not very safe for men either.

They were talking about the slutwalks on BBC radio today with some heated descusions about it

:winkwink:

I love sluts

Homegrown Video calls upon Billy Jack
 

Pathetic. Why don't you show your momma what you just posted and see how proud she is of your ignorance. Or is she the reason you hate women?

You just gonna have t'get Billy Jacked.

My mom doesn't dress like a slut.

Sluts in business attire are hotter than sluts in stretch pants. It's all attitude!

I find it slightly ignorant that people can not see the reality that sexually provocative clothing causes excitement in the other sex. This excitement could lead to action.

In order to reduce risk of rape, don't dress like a slut. You could be seen as a target and get some surprise dick. :2 cents:

You sir are a complete and utter moron. Rape is a hate crime, not a sex crime. Rape rates in countries where women are dressed the OPPOSITE of provocative in head to toe robes, burkas, veils, etc. are much higher... so how are they dressed? Slutty?

People like you perpetuate the worst stereotype of all - that some women "deserve" it. Go get a clue. Hopefully you have to look so far and wide that this industry never has to hear from your sorry ass ever again.

Women wear miniskirts for easy access to the goods, everyone knows that. Just look at porn: You see some slut walking down the street, roll up in your bus and wave a few twenties. Thirty seconds later she is gagging on your cock.

I'm all for sluts, why are you so mad?

of course its not right and of course it shouldn't be like that but reality is, in some cases dress is a factor. i don't think anyone is saying someone who dresses that way deserves it or that its the main factor, just that it can be and has been a factor in a certain % of rape/sexual assault cases.

If I dont take my slut for a walk, she scratches the door and pees on the carpet...

LOL at this thread, coming from a forum that prefers to call females bitches rather than women.

Who the fuck cares whose FAULT it is? Does laying the blame on the fuckwad who did the raping make it all better? Laying blame where it belongs doesn't make the woman any less raped.

If a person is stupid for walking through a questionable area and getting robbed, why would it be any different for someone wanting to avoid being raped? You do what is necessary to protect yourself instead of marching in a worthless parade that will produce zero results. Eesh...

I'm not mad. Disgusted, yes, mad no. I am all for sluts too and love admitting to my own inner slut. I just don't think anyone "deserves" to be raped and find sarcasm about it to be just plain insensitive... and uncalled for... even in a place called GFY.

We got off topic. What I was originally pointing out was that even though it may not be fair or right, people react what they see.

While not foolproof, there may be some merit to not dressing in a sexually provocative manner to avoid sexual harassment or rape.

A person does not "deserve" to be raped because she or he dresses a certain way, or acts a certain way, or anything else. The perception people have that is the case is why so many rapists get off scot free. It is just plain fucked up. You wouldn't say it is ok to steal from someone just because he has money and you "deserve" it more than he "deserves" it. It is never ok to take sex from someone without his or her consent. Never.

I seriously can't believe I have to explain this.

Until you actually know someone that has been raped you unfortunately probably will never understand.

Nobody deserves crime, as stated above it is often prudent to act defensively. This is no different than defensive driving.

Dammit Far-L ... WHy you gotta go n be all full of logic n shit...
