13-Year-Old on 'Slut Shaming'

A point from 13-year-old 'Astrorice' on 'slut shaming' is discussed by Jessica Levinson (professor, Loyola Law School and blogger at Huffington Post), James Poulos (The Daily Caller and Richochet.com), Rick Ungar (Forbes and Washington Monthly) and Cenk Uygur (host, The Young Turks).

What angered me about this was when the guy said she was too young to make the link between Slut Shaming & Rape. There is a link between the two and it's right that she knows that, even at her age.

Firstly, WHY IS THIS DISCUSSION OVER THE GIRL VERSUS THE ACTUAL TOPIC. Secondly, I believe Astrorice's comment over rape was mostly prevalent to the Slut Walk protests, over a policeman who commented that when women are raped, they are asking for it. Thirdly, the later comment about her "jumping the line" resulting from immaturity is backwards. Avoiding such topics more readily displays juvenile discomfort. This group needs to grow up to be able to debate with Astrorice.

I will correct you on the fact that it is the business of every individual a person sleeps with, who, how many and when, and how often, a person they are sleeping with is having sex. If this were a world free of diseases, jealousy, vengeance and pregnancy, it wouldn't be an issue, but that's not the world we live in.

So according to this girl on the video, a 57 year old man should be allowed to have anal sex with a 12 year old.

the girl is smarter than these adults. kids are already having to deal with sex reputations and rape, so adults should be open to discuss it with them.

@polpetta14 i'm sorry if i offended you but honestly i couldn't give a shit and yeah anyone has the right to have sex with whoever they choose THE POINT I WAS MAKING was if you have sex with one person one day and someone else the next makes a man or a woman a whore, you feel better now or do i have to sing soft kitty to you?

@Temptuous2112 Yeah I see your point here, not freaking out :') But rape can also be used as a means to humiliate people and exert a degree of control over them. But women have the right to deny sex if they do not want to have it with that particular man, they always have the right to deny them, the man's in the wrong for forcing them. And I'm sure there's been cases of men raping other men, just as there's cases of men being raped by women, it's just less commonly heard of.

holy crap. she's too young to think and prepare for life as a child...and being sexually active. And actually having a choice...

Too sexy clothing is like anyone who wears baggy hanging off their butt jeans....Why in the world we pay $200 for shoes... come on...common sense and common respect. Have alot to do with the perception and influence you know/think the way you are effects others...When you have a cold to you go around sneezing on everyone? Put some clothes on...when appropriate.
