The thing with the “slut walk” is they are protesting rape.
I know a lot of you are gonna hate me for this but I do agree with them.
I did a paper on rape in college and this was before I read a brilliant book by John Douglas called “Obsession”.

John is a former FBI criminal profiler. He expand upon the type of rapists profiled and what their causes where.
If you don’t believe my term paper at least believe someone who was an FBI agent. A woman’s clothing has nothing to do with why she is raped. It is all in the sick mind of the rapist. Consider this a man will rape a 60 year old bag lady who is wearing all the clothing she owns or a 4 year old girl wearing only training pants and sleepers. It does not matter what a woman is wearing why she is raped has to do with several things.
One she was in the wrong place at the wrong time.
Two she was “singled out” as a victim. Like the women Ted Bundy raped then later killed. The victims fit a certain fantasy or object of the rapist anger.
Most of all however the rapist saw in the victim someone who is weak, that he could overpower. Often a way the lion hunts in the jungle is how a rapist searches for his prey. Look for the most vulnerable in the pack, single her out and go for the kill.
Consider also that women wearing Hijabs or Niqabs in the middle east are raped. Rape is not an act of passion or lust it is an act of anger.
With that said, I do wish they would choose a better name than “Slut walk”! I just can’t see Susan B. Anthony or Elizabeth Stanton walking in something with a name like that no matter how good the cause.
Agreed, No means No. Regardless of attire or reputation.
