I've tried to avoid this one, but I'm afraid I have to weigh in on slut-walk. Check out the picture:



Why is it that in a "Slut Walk," the only nipple we see is on a fat, hairy dude? Sluts, where are your nipps? But I digress. Sluts, speak out:

Some women and men who protest dress in nothing more remarkable than jeans and T-shirts, while others wear provocative or revealing outfits to bring attention to "slut-shaming," or shaming women for being sexual, and the treatment of sexual assault victims.
Ok, sure the guy made a stupid comment. Is he advocating sexual abuse against women? No. But, there might be some situations women find themselves in that would increase their likelihood of being a victim, but we can't talk about that, because sluts have a right to live consequence-free lives, right?

Dave Chappelle had the best take on this, when he called a woman a slut because she was dressed like one. She became incensed, and he likened that to people becoming confused as if he were wearing a policeman's uniform. Is it fair to confuse the uniform for the person? Absolutely. You may not be a slut, but if you're wearing the uniform, you might as well be.
