Most people assume slut shaming stops after high school.

I am 28 yet still struggle with slut shaming. It shakes me to the core that most people assume slut shaming stops after high school. The fact that it exists in high school is unacceptable anyway and here it is, continuing to follow me when I am in my late twenties. I met a man over twitter. We instantly connected. We went from direct messages on twitter to text messages, to phone calls, to Skype. After some time had passed, we decided to take it a step further and meet. We had amazing chemistry and decided to begin dating. What I didn’t know, is that he had recently left seven year relationship with someone who seemed very unstable. She began publicly slut shaming me on Twitter months ago. The man I was dating told me to ignore it for his sake and I did. I also ignored it because in spite of being 30, her behavior was that of a child and sexual bullying is never okay. After two months of harassment, I decided to protect my twitter account. I usually don’t let others change me whatsoever but I was so tired of the constant torment that I took the next step and did it. Unfortunately, this person got her sister to follow me and harass me as well. She made multiple twitter accounts purely to try and cause me grief. This saddens me deeply. It is still happening today even after six months. Whatever happened to women sticking together? I am proudly sex-positive and I will ALWAYS fight for what is right. My sex life is none of this woman’s business. Her constant use of the word “slut” and “whore” not only made him cut off contact with her, it also made her look like a very depressed and sad person. I will fight for anyone who is sexually bullied. Because it doesn’t end after high school.
