Thirsty Fish

Hey I'm Katy, recent grad and writer. We'll see how that works out. Here are some things that really get me going: feminism, film, felines... that's about it.

Okay so this comment just happened on facebook and IMMA STAB.

The context is that this girl I know posted a picture of her and the poster she made for SlutWalk Tallahassee, where women and men walk around to call attention to and ultimately end “slut”-shaming, victim blaming, and sexual violence.

The girl’s poster said “Just cuz my jeans r tight, it doesn’t make rape alright”

And this was some moron’s response. The conversation continued where he called the girls in the conversation “wanna-be feminists” and said other dumb shit such as “Don’t you understand by making this such a big deal you are just proving how unequal women are to men, since you are always in fear of being raped” and “Lol I make it ok to rape? Are you implying that ive raped some one? Hahaha sloots gonna sloot.” after commenting on someones grammar and he also decided to toss in some religion bashing by telling the girls to “learn to dress” and giving fashion advice by posting a link to a burka. He then insisted to call the girl who posted the picture “immature/ignorant” through facebook chat and said  that if we wanted to get our points across we should have ignored his comments and been the bigger people basically. It was solely up to us to be the bigger, mature people apparently. His last words to the girl before she blocked him were along the lines of: if you keep making ignorant/immature comments like that then good luck in the work force…

Seriously.

SERIOUSLY. 


So I told Anissa about this and she was as pissed as I was when it happened.

    When I posted the picture, I was completely unprepared for backlash. I assumed the people I was friends with would be...
