Firstly, girls should be allowed to control their body, it's THEIR BODY.

I would just like to say that I've personally never been called a slut or any titles that remotely refer to that word, but living in somewhat of a small town I hear many stories of who's sleeping with whom and people referring to the girl as a "slut." This really upsets me because guys can go out and sleep with whomever they choose with no problems, but a girl, even if it's her first time, will get ridiculed and bombarded with words such as "slut" because our virginity is seen as precious and a part of us that we have to hold onto until marriage. Anytime I hear or see a post on the Internet where a person is being referred to as a slut I step in immediately because there is no reason for the word. Firstly, girls should be allowed to control their body, it's THEIR BODY. Secondly, if guys are doing it girls have just as much of a right to do it themselves. Thirdly, I believe the concept of valuing a girl's virginity is totally bogus and a double standard. Lastly, stop caring about what others choose to do with themselves unless they are hurting themselves or others with their actions. If these girls are happy with the choices they make then leave them be, but if you know someone who might be spreading diseases or making themselves unhappy then at least try to talk to them in a caring way instead of calling them a slut and making them feel bad for their actions. - Melanie
