Again, you put words in my mouth, claiming I called her a slut. No one likes to be misquoted.
No, I am not putting words in your mouth.
I wonder to what extent regional or social context fuels our disagreement. I am not young and have traditionally heard ‘bimbo’ used to imply ‘stupid woman who trades on her looks/sexuality to get what she wants’. Having watched young people struggle with the kind of situation that this young girl is in, and actually encountered a fair number of adults still struggling with long past episodes of molest in their childhood, I know that the only way they let go of the damage is to give the blame to the perp and not to their prey. Even in those instances where a History teacher with a porn addiction is going through a terrible divorce and is repeatedly propositioned by a child - he is still responsible for his actions and a child is not responsible for his action. To hear kids blamed (’should have known’) in TV, print, conversation etc. is to wonder if there are others present with wounds that fester and are made worse by hearing a child receive condemning comments for that situation. The girl, like many others I’ve spoken with, is not stupid, but is sadly without protection from parents or society and probably was selected for these traits.
