(6,342 posts)When I was in college, I can't remember a single time when us group of guys slut-shamed a woman. I can't speak for every man on campus nor any other campus. But it never happened in my group of friends.
Now...the word "bitch" might have been tossed about a couple times especially during a break-ups or emotions flying high. But that wasn't an everyday thing.
However, I do remember women would use slut, whore, bitch, even the c-word over and over again describing each other. They'd spread rumors and stab each other in the back. And to be completely honest...that kind of cattiness is a turnoff to guys. Im dead serious...90% of men want nothing to do with that kind of garbage. We stay out of it.
In fact, in high school I remember a girl I was friends with, and the only friends she had were guys. Why? Because she was slut-shamed by other GIRLS and none of them wanted to be friends with her for fear her slut reputation might rub off on them.
So don't come here and make this claim that all women are part of this massive sisterhood where you have each others backs in the fight against the patriarchy. You don't!
