A nswer this: Have you ever been harassed by a man before? Whether it be through catcalls, invasion of personal space, or even by just a look? I had an experience this past Saturday night that reminded me of how some men can be so incredibly disrespectful to women. My cousin t chose to wear an off-the-shoulder crop top, mid-rise jeans, and sandals. Like any good evening, the fun began before the party commenced. My cousin had a few too many but she remained seated at our table.
Being a slut, to my mind, was mostly fun – wearing and doing what you liked
How Should I Deal With My Year-Old Daughter Who Wants to Dress Slutty? | The Nation
In my junior year of high school I wore leggings to my AP Latin class. Leggings were against dress code at my school, as were sweatpants and skirts that were shorter than the ends of your fingertips. My female teacher admonished me in front of the class before sending me home to change. I ran home crying and changed into jeans. When I returned, one of the older boys in my class made a rude comment as I sunk into my seat.
OK girls, calm down. I put "slut" in quotation marks. I'm not calling your wardrobe "slutty" in a sexist, misogynistic or horrendous mean-girl way. It's actually a compliment, babes.
T he first time I was called it, I am not sure I knew exactly what it meant. I had rolled up the waistband of my green pleated skirt to make it shorter, as we all did. Miss Shipp took me aside and told me I looked like a slut.
