If rape is a crime of violence, not of sexual desire, then any conversation about what anyone should or should not wear is moot. The cop in the OP IS ignorant. Yet, we are discussing the very issue of clothing choice as if it has any relevance whatsoever, which lends it relevance. Protesting too much and all that.

A girl can be a ho-bag all she wants. Her ass can hang out of her shorts and her tits can be stuffed up into her botoxed face. I might think it shallow and stupid, but that's just my opinion.

But the subject of forcible rape is not up for discussion or interpretation. It is rape. It is a violent crime. It has nothing to do with fashion or looks or age or any of the million things society points to in an attempt to define any particular woman.

Perfect. Thank you.

Slutwalk Seattle was an awesome, awesome experience. I'd encourage anyone who has an upcoming Slutwalk event coming to their area to go. I was humbled by the stories I heard from the various speakers.
