Reclaiming The Word “Slut” I have loved watching this SlutWalk phenomenon sweep the planet. I love it for a lot of reasons. I love anything that brings the discussion of people’s sexual individuality and autonomy to the forefront. And I love costumes, so there’s that. It makes me hopeful as the mother of a daughter who I hope will live in a world where she is both safe and free in her sexuality. As the daughter of a gay man, I know what it is like to be afraid that someone I love will be victimized simply because of how he has sex. As a business woman, I have been told that I am too sexy to be taken seriously. I have many sociopolitical reasons for wanting to see women able to express their sexuality in a way that is safe, healthy and fulfilling.

That “turned on” feeling of wanting to think more, talk more, do more, get more done, because I was just reminded that I CAN.
Acquaintance Rape: Who You Know Can Hurt You. Whether you know it or not, you know a survivor of acquaintance rape. Sometimes called “date rape,” this is a real and common problem in our society. Acquaintance rape happens between people who know each other, which sometimes makes it very complicated and difficult to believe by many people, including the victim themselves. After all, our friends and acquaintances are not rapists, are they?
