13-Year-Old on 'Slut Shaming'

I would like to state that women are not the
only individuals who are raped. Men are often raped and most cases go
unreported. This post will focus on rape against women because women are most
often raped. Here is a video, of adults who are discussing a video created about
a 13 year old woman who talks about slut blaming and rape culture. Most of the
individuals had a problem with her age. Personally, I understand that some adults
want their children to remain innocence but in truth a lot of rape victims are
around her age. Also, in my opinion children should be just as aware as adults
to the best of their understanding because this affects everyone. Education
youths become better informed adults that will make stronger choices.  My favorite comment in the video, is when one
adult states that no matter what you teach your children somewhere along the
line they will make up their own opinion and become their own person. I completely
agree with this statement because adults should allow for children to make
their opinion and choices but the only way to do that is to let them express
themselves as well as educate them, and have open discussions. In some case
they might change your mind. What do you think of the video, the idea of rape
culture, and “slut blaming”?

The video also stated that the amount of individuals who were have sex at such a young age during his youth was a lot lower than then now? I am not sure how true this statement is because just because someone is talking about sex does not mean they are engaging in the behavior. It also does not mean that if someone is not having sex they are unable to talk about it or have an opinion?



Maybe, the young women video is an example of what is to come. Are more individuals going to speak out on their opinion on a variety of topics that directly or indirectly affects them?
