Some young women seem clueless about how coarse and undignified their behavior is. Yes, I know, they’re young. That doesn’t mean they get a free pass when it comes to civility and dignity. On Friday at NC State we were treated to another example of cringe-worthy behavior by young women. It came in the form of the “Slut Walk” organized by a female student who doesn’t seem to understand what the “Slut Walk” says to many people, or why this crassness mocks the serious issue of sexual assault, which was supposed to be the focus of the event.
Shah said the name of the walk seemed to alienate some people, but for the most part the event was successful.
“We reiterated our point,” Shah said. “I really hope some people got things out of this. Some walked with us on their way to class, though we also got weird looks.”
“Weird” doesn’t begin to describe it.
