E. Lockhart Quotes
Kim Called Me A Slut Under Her Breath In H&P, And Mr. Wallace Heard Her And Gave A Lecture On The Negative Effects Of Labels, And How Words Like That Serve To Limit Women's Sexual Expression, And How There's A Whole History Of Words That Basically Mean Slut8 And Yet There Are No Equivalent Epithets For Men Whatsoever, And Didn't That Say Something About How Women Are Viewed In Our Culture? He Said A More Accurate Term Could Be: "a Girl Who's Using Sexuality In An Attempt To Gain Approval From The Opposite Sex ... ." Or, If You Look At It A Different Way, "a Liberated, Open Girl Who Likes Boys And Feels Comfortable Expressing Affection, But Is Misunderstood." Blah Blah Blah.
I'm Sure He Meant Well, But I Wanted To Call Kim A Megaslut Right Back And Not Think About It Anymore
