How To Deal with Negative Comments About Yourself

Someone called me a whore and in the same breath called my friend a prude and this perfectly lays out the issues in today’s society.

Have sex, but not too much, and definitely not too little.

Wouldn’t it be nice if a woman could have full agency over what she does (...or doesn’t), without being scrutinized?

Wouldn’t it be nice if a woman wasn’t constantly ridiculed and judged for how she explores her sexuality?

Wouldn’t it be nice if she wasn’t told what’s right and what’s wrong for her own body?

But instead, we’re labeled, harassed, discredited, and shamed. We’re fed disempowering, unfounded, and contradicting messages.

I’m so over it, and I have a wild feeling you are too.

So let’s continue to speak out against those who perpetuate shame instead of minimize it.

Let’s continue to dismantle the structures that are built to control, ostracize, and keep women small.

Let’s continue to educate and demystify and empower.

Let me start:

If a woman *doesn’t* sleep around it doesn’t set her on a moral high ground, nor does it mean she’s too vanilla, too boring, not sexual enough.

If a woman *does* sleep around it doesn’t mean she lacks self-respect, she’s dirty, or she’s only good for sex.

It’s simply her choice, her preference, and what feels right to her.

Last but not least, jokes on my troll. They failed to take note of who their audience is, because little do they know I love being called a whore.
