Have you marked your calendar for Boston SlutWalk 2011 on May 7?
Why are you walking around Boston in minimal clothing and calling yourselves 'sluts'?
Slut-shaming is a huge part of being a young grrrl in today's society. As is rape culture. This is a walk to protest both slut-shaming and rape culture. It's a walk to take back the word SLUT in order to show that the nature of your being is not determined by how many sexual partners you have.

This is pretty ridiculous if
This is pretty ridiculous if you ask me. Aren't there better ways to approach said issues for "grrls," if thats what this is actually all about.
oh also..
Gov't Centre? Where is Boston Commmons?
what we have here, students, is a stereotype
the surefire way to tell when a bostonian is insecure about something is when she or he starts criticising others for slightly mispronouncing or misspelling local landmarks. clearly, a nerve has been struck.
So you turn around
...and try to shame someone who cares about accuracy and spelling. WHY PERPETUATE HATE??? Let's start a "Sticklers for Calling Things By Their Right Names" walk.
And what we have here is a bad student
There's a Z in "criticize" around these parts, sonny boy, and you should hit the "shift" key at the beginning of any sentence pretty much anywhere.
Long ways
They'll probably be pretty tired after a 500-yard walk...
But I guess it's better than the usual "walking back and forth on Essex Street."
All I can think of...
is this, from the Australian TV mockumentary, Summer Heights High.
