It's a cesspit of misogyny here, this bastion of great liberal thinking. And all sanctioned by the owners.

Yes, the buzzword, outrage. I think I should have the right to sign on here after a work day and not be subject to sexist insults.

allegedly pointing out "slut shaming," again the OPs language. It's been a hard week so naturally they feel a need to take it out on DU's women by insulting us.

They are slut shaming one of our women and a, ya, she is a slut, about a woman we supposedly don't like.

Could it get any more ridiculously stupid

Using the term "slut-shaming" is calling the woman you're supposedly trying to defend a slut.

Unless the person using that term has asked that girl or woman if she is ok with being labeled a slut, then no one should be using that fucking stupid term ABOUT HER.
