There was a post on tumblr (you can probably find the link on my tumblr blog) addressing some "sexist" comment that I apparently made. It was about how a girl/woman can be as slutty as she wants, but that doesn't give a man permission to touch her/rape her. This is so very much true, but I made the comment that I don't think that women should just be sleeping around. While, in fact, i don't really care what every single woman decides to do with her body because that is her business, I just think it's smarter to be protective of yourself because of all of the diseases out there, people who just want to hurt you, and unwanted pregnancy. If you're being safe, great! But you should also protect your emotions too, especially if you're like 16 years old and sleeping with people because you'll most likely regret that later on.
Someone made the comment that I'm narrow-minded and I just think that because I'm religious. Apparently I have to be religious to think that sex should be safe and women should really know their partner. I personally think it's a bit narrow minded of the anonymous person who made that comment about religion solely being like that. Someone also made the comment that I'm an "awful person and killed anything that a good person should be." THAT comment was freaking ridiculous. The fact that I have to stand up for myself to people I don't know via internet is stupid. I guess only "feminists" have opinions.
I don't really think that thinking women should be protective of themselves is sexist. The only reason I used the word "woman" is because that's what the initial post was about. It was talking about WOMEN not being raped because they were "slutty."
Yes, I do believe in God but that had nothing to do with my opinions on the matter.
