week 6 blog

I went to a party this weekend with a couple of friends. My friend ended up making out with a guy. All of the girls were calling the girl a slut but no one commented on the guy's role. I asked people if they thought the guy did anything wrong and they said they think it was the girl's responsibility to control herself because guys cannot help themselves. I found that very interesting. There is always a stigma that follows a girl around if she kisses a lot of men but men do not carry that same stigma if they kiss a lot of women. I do not think that it is necessary to blame anyone in particular or if we do place blame, blame both parties. I think that women and men can make their own decisions and who are we to judge them? What do we expect when our whole culture and all of the media we see daily contains a lot of sexual content?
