Oh my, a woman is calling other women’s fashion choices slutty? YOU’D THINK WOMEN WERE NEVER CAPABLE OF SUCH THINGS

The only reason slut is a degrading word is because women have made it so. If you’re a slut, be proud! Making the job much easier for the rest of us.

I find that I sometimes say something but I meant it one way but it is perceived in another way, or I may not have thought through something before saying it.  I don’t think anyone would have cared if she had said, “I don’t care for those skimpy dresses.  They show too much skin.”  If she thought that way about “slutty dresses,” she should be able to voice her opinion–free speech after all.  I still think people will wear what they want to wear…I just don’t have to look that way (or dress similarly) if I don’t like it.  Lastly, tabloids are known to twist words around so I never take them seriously anyway.

She said IF YOU FEEL LIKE A SLUT — well, I’ll tell you what, there are some women who would wear next to nothing and not think/feel anything wrong with it.

So, if you don’t feel like a slut… dress the way you want.. it’s up to you. You’re the one that has to walk around like that.

And all she did was make her own opinion. She said she didn’t like something. So what. Everyone is entitled to his or her own opinion.

I don’t see what the big deal is. She didn’t call anyone out as being a slut. And yeah, there are clothes out there that make you look slutty when you wear them. Just like there are clothes out there that make you look like you’re amish. I think the point is, don’t pretend to be shocked that you look slutty if you happen to be wearing items that are kinda….slutty. 

Meh, I think she has a point.  We’ve become really confused as a culture in thinking that loads of skin showing = sexiness, which shouldn’t be the case.  What happened to women being classy and sexy at the same time?

I mean, she does have a point. Its not like shes calling specific women sluts

Considering we cannot hear how she actually said it, we can’t really get the right context from it. Could be that she was using “slutty” as a simple descriptor because clothing like she’s described is typically stereotyped as being worn to look slutty and forcefully sexy. I see no issue with her comment. She’s saying that she has a problem with these types of cuts, and that if you (in the general sense) feel slutty in it then you probably come off slutty to others too. It’s partially about how you feel about a clothing style and how you wear it that helps gives off those types of vibes as well.

People are too sensitive man.

It’s true. You put on a slutty dress and you more than likely look like a slut. 

Meh, I wasn’t offended 

Yeah, that kind of dress sounds pretty trashy, and like it or not, most people aren’t going to bother plunging into the depths of your innermost… soul… before they get to know you.
We’re really not this stupid. We all have eyes, we all know that everyone else has eyes, why are we so surprised that people use them to gather information and make conclusions? It’s the very first sense of someone that we get. So try to keep your stuff tucked in, or people will think that you’re careless with it.

usually i get offended by this kind of stuff, but i just don’t really see this as that big of a deal.  plus i love her.

so she has an opinion, big deal. she wasn’t bashing anyone in specific. 

 she said if you FEEL like a slut. she didn’t say women who wear X are sluts.  I am not seeing what the bifg deal is.

Meh. I’m not offended. When it comes to clothes, that’s kind of my philosophy as well. If I’m wearing something that makes me feel slutty, I’m pretty sure everyone is going to see me that way as well. Sometimes, that’s kind of the point, though.

omg I totally AGREE with her comment. Go Rachel! She said you LOOK like one, not actually act like one. if you feel slutty, then you probably going to look slutty since you know your own judgement.  

I agree with her. Don’t flaunt all your goods for the whole world to see! A certain amount of skin showing creates mystery, while giving it all away makes you look trashy. Besides, I’ve never seen her wear anything that makes her look anything but classy.

She can say whatever the hell she wants. And frankly – I agree with her. There was some comedian who said “maybe you arent a slut, but youre wearing a slut’s uniform”

She’s right. But god forbid she have a strong opinion.

If you feel like a slut, you probably look like one…
I dont see anything wrong with what she said.. Its true, imo.

@haleymroach@xanga - dave chappelle said that his comedy skit about the cop uniform metaphor story was hilarious.

Maybe if you’re offended by her comment, you should think about how you really think about yourself.

I think there’s nothing wrong with what she said? she’s right. if you feel slutty, you probably look slutty….? big deal.

I think she was only talking about her own choices, and wants to say that she doesn’t give too much thought to it. 

@AttractHappiness@xanga - well said. 

People will get butthurt over anything and everything. So what, she doesn’t want to look like a total fucking whore like 90% of our young women today? Sue her. Yet another fucking retarded post.

That made me LOL

I think she’s a human, and I think she’s also an American, and I think that both of those entitle her to say whatever the hell she wants to say, and screw you if you don’t like it.

Seriously?! Who gives a damn if someone says something that offends you? I sure as hell don’t. Why are we insisting that people live lives that aren’t in any way offensive to others? It’s absurdity, and an impossibility.

Also, Rachel wants me. Bad. She just doesn’t know it yet. That girl can say whatever the hell she wants to me, as long as she’s smiling when she does it. Rawr.

@WaitingToShrug@xanga - Crud. After your closing line, I feel like I should get rid of my Speedos now.

Don’t see what the problem is.  She said if you FEEL like one you probably LOOK like one…not that you are.   She has a point. 

I think women should be able to wear whatever they want.  Clothing choice doesn’t hurt anybody, and if she thinks she looks sexy in her outfit, more power to her!
