  • I think women should be able to dress how they want.

    HOWEVER, please take caution.

    Never go into areas where crime is prevalent.

    Always go places with other people, never alone.

    No matter what you wear, you can be raped.

    SAFETY FIRST!

    And this is coming from a former rape victim who was assaulted as a child.

  • slut walk doesn't do anything. it's just a chance for idiots to parade in whore clothing

  • also as some other posters have pointed out not 100% of rape is done by men, how people dress themselves applies to males as well.

  • Actually bulls do respond to red, I know for the most part they are color blind however they can make out red. @yoshiyoshiichi I have no idea as to what you are saying. Bottem line is you cannot control what people will do to you. however you can influence it, if you go into a crappy part of town in a thong bikini I am sorry some of the blame must be put on you.

  • What slutwalkers fail to understand is that rape isn't always a choice, it's usually an impulsive reaction deeply influenced by mental illness. Instead of saying all men should never rape, even if they're completely fucked up and in many ways can't help it, they should be supporting the research into why men AND women rape and how to reverse the disease. You wouldn't teach a cancer patient how to get better, would you? No sane men are rapists. I also think no sane woman would dress like a slut.

  • i only feel sorry for nice girls who get raped not ones who dress like whores, and i think its very mean to wave food in front of a hungry mans face.

  • you respect.

  • It's very obvious that some men have inferiority complexes thereby will become more aggressive when a woman challenges the preconceived notions of what a respectable woman is. Hell I rarely show skin by CHOICE and occasionally receive unwanted attention always by black guys too, they have no respect for women. Instead of embracing this slut label we should actively treat these men in the same fashion, see how they like it. It's still survival of the fittest being a lady won't automatically get

  • what about the culture of false-rape allegations we live in?

  • i watched the whole thing. I don't understand. is all this just for attention? it seems reverse psychology to me.

  • SlutWalk = "Stop rape by looking at our nearly-naked bodies! Women bear no responsibility for their choices! Woohoo!"

  • When these women turn 50 years old. I'll see if they'll be comfortable dressing like sluts with their wrinkled vaginas and asses

  • The choice of the name 'Slut" is a personal defeat for women. That's like Black people hosting a "NiggerWalk". It should be disgusting to say no matter who says it.

  • I hope this comment will be approved bc I am not going to try and be inflammatory or mean just honest. IMHO the slutwalk is an illogical emotional reaction to a valid statement. Telling someone to look both ways before they cross the street is not the same as condoning hitting someone with a car for not looking before crossing the street. TRUTH

  • Why don't you allow free speech on this subject?

  • Yeah calling yourself a slut is  "the best" way to get some appreciation and respect :D

  • Why can't all of these (I would like to think) intelligent people realize we are not blaming them for the act of rape having been committed upon them, we are telling them that the situations they choose to put themselves in can lead to rape and as such they are responsible for taking the necessary precautions to prevent being in those situations.

  • If you don't want to catch fire from an open flame you don't dose youself with gasoline. If you want to decrease your chance of being sexually assaulted in a high risk area you don't have your butt crack in plan view wearing a see threw shirt. Simple enough. If you see a bull do you want to wear head to toe red as well?

  • @jason8897386 Our voice is louder than our clothes.

  • @jason8897386

    You're comparing an act of violence to an animal's natural instinct and a chemical reaction. The comparisons keep getting stupider and stupider. You're seriously comparing rape to a chemical reaction between an explosive compound and oxygen?

    The whole point of the SlutWalk is to change society's attitudes so it's no longer, as you say, a "high risk area" for women. And what percent of rape victims do you actually think had their butt crack in plain view with a see through shirt?

  • @jason8897386 Bulls respond to motion, not the color red.

  • @jason8897386

    so humans are as dangerous as fire and excited bulls.

    oh but yeah some bulls actually do have a warmer heart than rapists I think.

    Then who's to be blamed??? rapists and attackers , NOT victims.

  • The police did not blame the victim, just gave some advice. Look if you want to lesson the chance catching on fire from an open flame you don't dose yourself with gasoline, you want to lesson the chance of being molested or raped in a high incident area don't have your ass crack out in plan view wearing a see threw shirt. Simple.

  • I'm proud to say that I attended SlutWalk. Rapes go unreported. Hopefully these marches can change that. Here are some facts from Stats Can

    statcan.gc.ca/pub/85f0033m/200­8019/findings-resultats-eng.ht­m

  • Well i Am Honestly Gratefull to the organisers Of The "SLUTWALK" it Shows tht finally the change has begun! \M/ go on people! We are with you all!

  • Defend this... the slutwalk is a growing protest movement whose message is that women need never be ladies, but men must always be gentlemen.

  • 1) No one is making the ridicolous claim that these women deserve to be sexually assaulted on the basis of what they wear. The officer said wearing "slutty" clothes INCREASES their chances of being a victim of a sexual assault. Not because they deserve it but because he made the misinformed assumption that rapists target girls who dress in a particular way.

    2) You don't have the influence to change the way the word slut is percieved. This is reality.

  • Is sexual assault a much bigger issue in Canada?

  • I can't see how this can deter rapists. Excluding cereal rapists, most people that will one day rape probably don't know they will one day do it. The message should be to be responsible for each other and yourselves. That's love. The sex drive is an impulse,but with rape, its coupled with extreme aggression. It is an attack. Invasions of any description is ofen marked by rape. Kill the men, rape the women. Its something to do with the reptillian part of the brain.

  • Great job... wear what you want... go where you l;ike.. it's your right.... but can you shave your armpits please!

  • women need to realize that what men see (all of us) is what we think, so if you are dressed half naked = she want sex. Rape is wrong no matter how explicit anybody is dressed, but there are more chances of being raped while walking like a $5 slut

  • My mother or my sisters DO NOT dress like sluts and they have never been raped. This movement is dumb and it is stating that it is ok for a woman to tempt a man all she wants and then claim rape and say "I was naked and humping him but it was NOT an excuse for sexual assault, he's a monster and I'm a victim"

  • The expression ''Dress code'' exists for a reason. When in public spaces, people have a 'responsibility' to their fellow man to clothe themselves properly. Females are not exempt from this. The ancient books of wisdom advises females to dress in a modest way. But many females are not fans of 'wisdom'.

  • Why not have an 'Anti-Rape Parade' instead?

  • I assumed that the slut walk was a bunch of women dressing like sluts parading around. I was grossly mistaken.

  • wow this shows how intelligent women are...maybe if i dress more attractive( aka more slutty) i can stop tha rape urges of these men.....

  • A lot of people just don't live in the real world. When my girlfriend is out one night with her friends she calls me at 3am, off her face, saying all her friends have gone home and she's just there talking with random strangers and might get one of them to give her a lift home as she's run out of money. What do you think I did? Of course I jumped in my car and picked her up. Common fucking sense

  • Playing devil's advocate here but the analogy of the bank robbery is spurious.

    Banks are aware that what they have is highly sought after and a tiny minority of people will have no moral qualms in taking it by force. That is why they store cash in safes, have CC TV cameras, security guards and panic buttons.

    The comments by that policeman were without tact and bad PR, but hardly misogynistic. Everyone needs to take a bit of personal responsibility for their own safety

  • I agree with what they said but factors such as mental state, relation to the accused, activities that night, etc need to be considered to determine whether it was rape or slander. I realise that wasn't her point but it needs to be pointed out.

  • Remember girls, if you don't want to get raped gain some wieght (get to about 300 - 400 lbs.) wear long skirts and long sleve shirts. Grow you hair long and never style it. No makeup of any kind. Also start reading the Bible and go to church to find your good Christain husband. If you still get raped keep that baby!

  • Lmao... The male speaker is only doing it for the pussy. Dont be fooled.

    PS This is not a rude, nasty or mean-spirited comment.

  • it doesnt matter what women wear. many men are monsters! they even rape other dudes! the human male can be the lowest, most repulsive beast on earth!.........this is why civilized men and women put on some muscle to keep the creatures away!

  • If a someone of another occupation dresses like a nurse we're gonna think she/he as a nurse.same here.u wanna dress like sluts? Go ahead.then we are only gonna think u are hookers and disrespect u. Like the ppl below said. Sluts are whores and to separate between a good women and a skanky one. But if you all are celebrating the fact of being one,then you women are going down the wrong wrong path.if you continue dressing as one and not expect to attract the wrong attention, then be my guess.you

  • Dear Matt and Trey,

    Please include this in your next episode of South Park.

    Yours faithfully,

    Reality

  • visit slutwalk.net for info on other upcoming slut walks in your neighbourhood

  • I am sick of whores calling sluts whores. A slut is a promiscuous woman. She has sex freely. A whore may not necessarily be promiscuous, as she wants money for sex. So a muslim virgin for instance, is still a whore, if she's saving herself for Mr Paycheque. Furthermore, such whores often call sluts 'whores', in order to shame the sluts, for having sex freely, thus lowering the price for all men - which whores object to. Your mothers are whores, if they ever advised you to wait for Mr Good job.

  • Dumb bitches, being a slut is a bad thing. And no sane person blames the victim because of what she was wearing.

  • I've seen Toronto police uniforms. Their pants are kind of tight. I'm sure the police chief whenever he wears them is just begging to be sodomized by some innocent homosexual minding his own business. I vote for a Boobquake - Slut Walk combination protest! 

  • talk about overreacting to one mans view.

  • Violence against women need to stop.

  • Good place to

    Meet chicks!

  • "You can ignore reality. But, you can't ignore the consequences of ignoring reality" Ayn Rand

  • FUCKEN SERIOUS HALF??? wow thats fucken AMAZING, HALF, so HALF av woman will be raped ? or in somm way sexuallie assulted? holly shit!!!!!!! thats inkredable, in fakt so inkredable as tu be false. Rape Kultur? wow sinz its a rare krime und all wow

  • @starryskies223

    Yes, I agree, but sadly, there are such people around. And a very effective way of avoiding rape and sexual assault is by not wearing slutty clothes. So, you can either choose to dress slutty and have a higher risk of being assaulted or not dress slutty and have a lower risk.

    In the end, they can only punish a rapist when he has already comitted his crime, by which time it is too late. Dressing more or less appropriately is a more preventive way of handling the problem.

  • Its beautiful to see a community come together in this way to overthrow things like this. I LOVE seeing this. Goodjob TO!!

  • The only clothing that can prevent rape is a chasity belt. It's time that we stop blaming the victim.

  • @WednesdayAdams1968 Blaming the victim and offering the victim preventive strategies are NOT the same thing.

  • @WednesdayAdams1968 The police victim didn't blame the victim. It was good advice I thought. Don't want to get burned, don't stand near the fire. Don't want to get blown up, don't walk through a mine-field. Don't want to drown, don't dive in the shallow end. Don't want to get mugged, don't walk through a park full of hoodlums at night. Practical advice in my view.

  • you act like a sluts are good for society...u know slut means whore right? women proud to be sluts?? this is fucking whack....our society is backwards

  • @MrThisisbullshitman, Obviously someone missed the entire point of SlutWalk.

  • @MrThisisbullshitman Slut isn’t a whore, they have sex with lots of people. (full stop) no money.

  • @MrThisisbullshitman its trying to advocate sexual equality...like sluts the word for a chick that sleeps around, but whats the equivalent for a guy? i think the whole point of this is to promote the idea that women shouldn't be ashamed of having sex & shouldn't suppress their sex drives because it's what society expects of them.

  • @osgangstarrr -I think that the fact that women can't be overtly sexual without being labelled as "a slut", (which is what you think) is where the problem is in the first place. -I think that you have been manipulated by culture into thinking that it's somehow wrong for women to be highly sexual. And this is the whole point of this: to address a core wrong thought -that men can be very sexual but women who are must be worth less, 'slutty'. -a word/attitude that totally strips her of all power.

  • @osgangstarrr

    yep, lets all dress the same, like good little brainwashed slaves. reDICKulous.

  • @osgangstarrr Why must women a-sexualize themselves in order to be worthy of respect? Maybe you're the one who needs to retire your old, tired stereotypes instead of expecting the rest of the world to continually organize their lives around not triggering your ignorant, stereotypical ideas. Rape is a psychological issue. How a society addresses an issue like rape is a social/political issue.

  • @osgangstarrr

    So you support racial profiling against black people based on how they dress?

  • lol what the hell happened to this city

  • Subconsciously you dress that way so that the opposite sex notices you. All women do this. You dress "sexy" in the house to boost your self-esteem. Women wear make-up to cover up imperfections so that when the opposite sex notices them they only notice perfection not the blemish that popped up overnight. To generalize, women dress provocatively to boost their self-esteem BUT their self-esteem is only increased when the opposite sex NOTICES them. Refute that ladies.

  • @osgangstarrr My ass. Hey Sherlock, how about posting something even remotely factual or constructive?

  • @osgangstarrr So you condone rape?

  • @osgangstarrr What does that have to do with the fact that dressing a certain way does not equal consent for sex?

  • What an ignoramus of a police officer to make this comment. Good job Slut Walk participants. This issue needed to be addressed.

  • No matter how "pure" you are, if someone says you're bad, if you are branded "slut", the legal system deprives you of your humanity and thus your citizen rights. Your rapist will walk. Slut-shaming is an attack on all women. It's an attack on equal rights. Slut shaming is an excuse to deprive women of their democratic rights. Slut-shaming is fascism. Misogyny is fascism. Our legal system is fascist.

  • @Astartify Putting rape and slut-shaming under the same category and protest them together is senseless. I consider both "slutty" and "macho" behaviors gross, silly, inelegant, licit. This is part of my freedom of expression. Rapists' testosterone should be wiped out forever.

    We all have so much energy and time. Were I a woman, I'd give slut-shamers very little of both. I would focus on fighting criminals. And I'd tell younger girls violent guys are not cool. Probably futile though.

  • Rude, nasty and mean-spirited comments will NOT be approved, so if you have nothing insightful or constructive to contribute, move on hater. Humor/sarcasm is one thing but stupid name calling is another.

  • @Torontopia

    Get raped.

  • if it looks like a duck and quacks like a duck it's probably a slut!!!

  • if you aren't in business, don't advertise

  • @Matthew23and9 if you can't keep your dick in your pants, don't leave your house.

  • @Matthew23and9

    What if you're in business, want to advertise, but don't want to be robbed?

  • No one is saying the way a woman dresses is a defense for the assailant (if it were up to me a rape trial would end with a public hanging) No one is saying a change in clothing would eliminate sexual assault.

    What we are saying is that modest clothing reduces but DOES NOT eliminates the chances YOU will be a victim. To say it doesn't, is like saying a bullet proof vest didn't protect the soldier who was shot in the face and he need not have worn it.

  • @dsultima Except that women in sweatpants, granny PJs and freaking burqas get raped just as much as people who show skin. Your argument is based on stereotypes, not research. Clothing does not affect rape. Rape happens because some douche decided to rape and he decides because of the likelihood he can succeed in his attempt, not because of the clothes the person was wearing.

  • OKAY, OKAY, OKAY FINE YOUR NOT A SLUT..... BUT YOU ARE WEARING A SLUT UNIFORM!

  • @jsuds12 OKA YOKAY YOU'RE NOT A MISOGYNIST .... BUT YOU ARE WAVING A MISOGYNIST FLAG

  • @jsuds12 God bless you dave chapple
