In reply to the discussion: We do not fat shame. We do not slut shame. [View all]NCTraveler
(30,481 posts)I have seen fat and slut shaming on occasion here since I started reading. I haven't really noticed an uptick. Some days something happens and there can be more of it seen. Other days we don't see any at all. I have not replied in certain threads today dealing with a lawyers daughter because of how vile I felt the direction was. At one point in my tenure here I would address each and every one of them hoping it would be educational. Didn't always work out well as far as conversations go.
The thoughts most members hold about these issues is one of the reasons I love it here. An overwhelming majority truly care and don't take part. That said, ten or so posters can sometimes make themselves look like a majority. I venture over to freeperville every now and then. Just about every single post with multiple replies has some element of racism, sexism, bigotry, etc.
