'Slut' Walk Feminist Won't Say If She'd Want Daughter To Dress Like One
NewsBusters ^ | Mark Finkelsteinn

Posted on 06/06/2011 5:45:57 AM PDT by governsleastgovernsbest

This column makes a living calling out Mika Brzezinski for her liberalism. So let's give the Morning Joe co-host credit when she dares deviate from the lefty line.

On today's Morning Joe, Mika persistently questioned Jessica Valenti, a feminist proponent of [their term] "Slut Walks," as to whether she'd want her daughter to dress like one. Valenti, happy to push others out into the streets in skimpy clothes, twice dodged Mika's question, the second time with a particularly lame line.

If people don’t think they communicate with their clothes, they don’t think.

The idea is to destroy society.
They’ll protect their own progeny for as long as possible from the consequences of that destruction.

They probably, like most libs, believe they won’t have to face the consequences of their ideas at all.

Like a gated community lib demanding “more diversity” in YOUR neighborhood, and demanding more “public transportation” to the suburbs.

It always seem that the women in these type of demonstrations are the ones you would never give a second glance. I think they are just attention craving. These demonstrations give them an opportunity to live out their fantasy that they are desirable.

She encourages young women to walk the streets wearing less than the average prostitute continues to increase the dehumanization of women. Dehumanization = increased victimization = job security for Valenti.

Like Brzezinski - but far less honestly - Valenti doesn't want HER daughter at increased risk either, only SHE won't SAY that because she makes her living by encouraging other people's daughters to be victimized.

Talk about hypocrisy.

Personally, green hair has always been a turn-off for me.

I have to say, these “Slut Walks” are silly but Mika has this all wrong as usual. The purpose of the “Slut Walk” is to show that women can dress however they want and it is no excuse for men to rape them or take sexual advantage of them. I agree with that and its a point Mika seems to miss. Its not an issue of whether you want your daughter to dress as a slut—hopefully no one does. But if your daughter dresses in shorts or a tight top, or is in a bikini on the beach, its no reason for a boy to force her into sex or make lewd comments anymore than a boy wearing the same thing.

I think the real issue here is unsaid.

As Sir David Attenborough might put it: “The somewhat larger, but less colorful males are held in rapt attention by the colorful, and sometimes even gaudy displays put on by the females of the species, to attract the attentions of the males. This often leads to confusion when females display themselves only to attract attention, with no real intent to attract suitors or mate. Often they are deeply offended when the wrong type of male then approaches them, or when chastised by adult females and males, or their peers, for putting on an improper or indecent display.”

Who is the slut walk’s target audience? Do they think their activities will convince someone who is inclined to rape a slutty dresser to change his ways?

I just don’t know what they think they are accomplishing.

Try this march in downtown Cairo.

That is where you find a culture where it is thought to be just dandy to rape women who dress like sluts. That is not our culture so why are they yapping at us?

If you put a sign on your front porch proclaiming “Alpacas for Sale”, don’t be surprised or offended when folks ring your doorbell and ask to buy an alpaca.

The bigger hypocrisy — that they didn’t even touch on — is why all these pro-slut leftists support islamic nazis. Don’t they know they will be flogged in the streets, come Sharia Law?

Don’t get me wrong; I think these things are silly and yet another example of how Feminists make clowns out of themselves, but its not OK to be lewd or sexually aggressive to anyone because of what they are wearing. That’s how Muslim savages live—they can’t control themselves so they have to cover their women from head to toe.
