SLsecret: Week 235

Aw DAN, I am disappoint, dude.

Give it a little bit. Somebody will get offended about one of them.

you are gonna have to explain to me which one lol

Well fuck if I know

I'm simply going off the probabilities here

LOL dammit! oh well

Gidge

You're my secret sounds like a line from Jerry Maguire.

the 50 shades one upsets me a bit

Why?

people being judgy one women expressing sexuatlity

on even

I make fun of the 50 shades books because they're bad writing

well is not mocking the book now is it? is about sl and the 50 shades thing

wich is basically women expresing their sexuality and being called whores for it

Or there is an SL thing?

cause yeah that´s super awesome and as a woman i never heard it before

Moniq

aybe it's not about the challenge, it could be about one person

Moniq

i have no idea though

i still find it sad that it passed

i doubt anyone would allow a secret with faggot in it

So this 50 shades challenge thing...basically it's a bunch of half dressed bloggers doing sexy poses yeah? This was different than normal how?

Actually I probably would let one through. Of course I would let ALL of them through

Which is why I don't do them

DimitriRizooto: cause aprently SCD allows them to be called whores for it

Well Iris doesn't pay attention to SL anymore. Which is why she does them. There is no bias.

there is bias when you allow stuff like this

to all women

it´s sexist bs

I don't see it that way

DimitriRizooto: well you´re not a woman and how often do you get called a whore for simply existing or having a vagina nevermind an actual sex life

I think that sexism is so pervasive, though, that words that denigrate women never raise the kind of questions that words that denigrate people of color or people who are LGBTIQ would.

Not excusing the sexism, but we have Whore Couture as an event in SL.

I've been called a whore quite a few times thank you.

CajsaLilliehook: doesn´t stop being sexism

Nephipants

sure all that exists. doesnt mean we have to like it.

DimitriRizooto: oh poor you dancien

Totally. I need a hug.

ElyHynes: I agree and I hate that whore, bitch, slut & cunt are used so widely. I don't see any "reclamation" at work at all. It's no coincidence that these words are gaining widespread usage while our rights

are under systemic attack. For women, this is a very retrograde era.

CajsaLilliehook: exactly is hard to reclaim anything whilst you hear those words and feelings beinhd them so widespread and used so often

Out of curiosity where was this level of griping when Whore Couture was going on?

in these case how dare these whore have a sexuality

I almost said "bitching" but that would be more fuel to the fire

nd it makes me extremily sad to see SCD allow it

DimitriRizooto: I didn't attend the Whore Couture event because I did not support it.

i doubt faggot in any shape or form would have been allowed in secrets

I have friends who feel differently. That's okay. I just know that I don't like it.

in this case the word is not even being used as being reclaimed

Well nobody has used the word faggot in a secret that has been submitted so I can't verify if your statement is true or not.

clearly an insult to the woman involved in the challenge and all women in general

Clearly

People can think what they like and if they think a woman who loves showing off their beautiful and sexy side is a whore, fine. You can't change that moron's mind. But for the sane, rational rest of us...

A lot of people are enjoying the 50 Shades of Sexy posts and I, for one, learned a lot at the event for it last night. There are so many different ways to express that side of yourself as a woman and it's...

Maybe it's not about the 50 Shades of Sexy thing? Second Line in secret seems to indicate maybe not?

incredibly enjoyable to me to see it! As a church girl growing up who whose sexuality was squelched so much, it's exciting for me to be able to express. So, to the idiot who posted that secret, sucks to be you!

DimitriRizooto: it doesn´t matter about who it is is tsill sexist

Well we don't know who made the secret. Is it about the challenge? Is it about someone being sexy? Or is it about someone actually being a whore and taking pay for sex?

did a WOMAN post the secret? if so, is it still sexist?

Apparently

Why are we assuming a man did it? Is that not also sexist?

Also

I guess we'll never know... Who made it so we can ask ya? We need a follow up secret to explain your first secret.

Sexist

tobefree: Internalized sexism is a powerful force.

Gidge

I assumed it was another shoe thing because that person is annoying in their endless posting

I'm not saying it isn't, but automatic assumption that it was a man doing the posting is also sexist, tbh.

There was an shoe one we didn't let through. Because WE FUCKING GET IT ALREADY

THAT ONE DIDNT GET THROUGH HAH

THANK GODDDD

I want to see one that says "I got my shoes! & this one is going up your ass."

There was ANOTHER shoe one?! LMAO

Same background and everything.

Man, someone is pressed that they didn't get fucked or get shoes.

Just shut the fuck up about it already. We all know. And Nobody cares

Gidge

I want to see one of two people fuckin wearing Gos shoes saying "You jelly?"

lmao

I might make that even just for the lulz.

(I won't, cuz I suck at buying shit in SL, but still - FUNNY)

considering the ratio of males to females here, id be willing to lay odds on the whore secret being made by a woman. considering that it says "a whore" and "nightly screenings" it seems to be about a specific

person. and sorry, but i dont think it is "sexist" if a female made it.

Keliah

I offer hugs, just sayin'.

we call ourselves whores all the time, and i for one do not think that being called a whore is in any way comparable to being called a faggot.

Isa

Women can participate in their own oppression.

sorry, i dont feel very oppressed because some random person said the word whore

Aisuru

Offended by people who can't understand directions and submit ones with weird dimensions

Seriously...it is the easiest thing ever...

600x450

Nope, everybody has to be a special snowflake

I think I know who is doing the shoe secrets, but no proof so I won't accuse

whoever it is should maybe get a hobby, like.. i dunno mastering photoshop.. instead of spending so much time worrying about who is fucking who

Xiomara

Also, #4... am I failing at reading comprehension, or does that secret just not make any sense?

MatthewAnthony

4 needs a "but" after the comma

#5 reminds me of the postcards we get from local churches talking about some of their monthly learning sessions.

Not the words, just the style of the card.

It's slut shaming. There is nothing wrong with having multiple sexual partners

Vinalla monogamous relationships are so 1950's

There's nothing wrong or vanilla about monogamy either.

Anyone can have an intense and meaningful sexual experience with any partner or partners. It all depends on your ability to be open minded.

Cracked

you can call me slut or a whore or even a cunt but DO NOT tell me to chill out or to calm down and do not call me stupid. js

Cracked

I'm so immune to the word "whore" these days because people use it for everything. It only has meaning if you give it meaning

Cracked

it's actually my term of endearment to therandomslife

❤❤ 10:10 ❤❤

that blog meme didn't even enter my mind when I saw the secret. I forgot it existed

Never said there was anything wrong. But you don't see people going "All these women fight for equal rights and you waste it being a housewife"

LOL

Some people choose to be a housewife.

What you see is "Oh your overly sexual and you are not thinking of settling down lol SLUT"

It's the fact that she got the ability to choose that lifestyle as opposed to being forced into it. That's equal rights.

But guys get that, too. If they choose to stay at home with the kids and not work, they get ridiculed for not being a man.

People are always going to put others down because it's a control issue and it makes them feel better.

*feel better about themselves

i didnt think that the secret was about the blog meme either, it doesnt even really make sense for that.. what does "nightly screenings" have to do with that meme?

Nora

^ agree. I think it's an attack and has nothing to do with the blog thinger

CajsaLilliehook: WC is sort of tongue in cheek though, its why we are doing it (aux). There arent many events like it on the grid.

So its a lot of "out and proud" people about sexuality.

i dunno i think im just used to it and thats sad. harv and i got called sluts and gor fantatics for posting questionable

content on plurk (of ourselves, two seperate plurks, hers was a blog post). I cant even be offended.

someone is just closed minded, all i can do is:

exactly

I am doing that challenge, but to me that secret sounded more like it was about one person. Possibly one person who is doing the challenge, but yeah.

As for the word whore... it's kind of hard to NOT have that be something women get called when they insist on calling themselves that with events like Whore Couture. So, it's sort of like... it's okay if you

are using it to describe yourself willingly, but not okay if someone says it about you.
