I think a lot of “adults” are setting a dangerous precedent when it comes to judging others.10/8/2019
I was never called a “slut,” mostly because I was extremely unattractive until the age of 19 or so, and virtually no one wanted to have anything physical to do with me. However, I did have a reputation for being a bitch and for being unattractive. I can appreciate how painful these situations are. I also find it disconcerting that I have female friends who are well into their 20s who will throw the term ‘slut’ around far more readily than I am comfortable with. We focus a lot on the way kids bully and abuse each other, but frankly I think a lot of “adults” are setting a dangerous precedent when it comes to judging others. I feel like we need to set a better example. I hope this is a place to start that. - Katie
