HPD Latest Public Stunt-Slutwalks (Non Thread)

Crazy stuff...check it out:

http://www.shrink4men.com/2011/04/27/in ... hat-is-it/

I wonder what is next? Sort of like the girls gone wild type of thing...but notice how they blame-shift the actual reasons 'why' they are doing these slutwalks.

What I enjoyed most about the article is that it touches upon the drama of how disordered women flaunt the word: MISOGYNY all over the place in a similar way they falsely holler rape (verbatim).

Good thing a woman wrote the article, and that she has several doctorates in psychology...and that her practice for many years consisted of observing the cluster b women and how they behaved in relationships...

As experts can say it and define it the best.

She has been there, done that.
Seen it, and called it like it is-

Again sometimes the best way to understand a situation is by way of an analogous situation.

For example, a wealthy man might dress up, drive a very expensive car, in part because he wants women to notice him. In part for himself. He might enjoy the attention of attractive women, while being upset at receiving attention from women he finds unattractive, or over poor people asking for handouts, or booing him for a display of wealth. Of course he wants his cake and eat it too; positive attention from those he wants it from, to be left alone from those he doesn't and/or are negatively attentive. If he is intelligent he understands wanted/unwanted attention go hand in hand to some degree so he needs to be careful about where he displays his wealth; if he is a self-centered child he will likely just pout and deny to himself and others that he desires attention, and being self-centered, he wants the whole world to behave precisely as he wants.

There are many male misogynists. It seems that with freedom of speech we males are still a bit shocked to learn there are a lot of female misandrists as well. My personal experience is that black and white thinking is often found in people who essentially hate an entire half of our species. Simple minds sort all men/women into good/bad categories.

Probably the right to be looked at, so they cannot be ignored. Like the movie Clockwork Orange, where you are bound to a chair, have your eyes forced open, and have to see all those things without any mean of defense.

not sexy enough to be HPD, and no solo HPD would be in such a large group: that would distract from all the attention!

You mean they are not TRUE histrionics? So what are they? BPD? Secret schizoids? :)

True.

Equally as true.
And well stated, XDude...

What bothers me is that a lot of people deny that it works both ways...Society is quick to say, "misogynists", but it often has not even heard of the word "misandrists". Equality is equality, right? Like, during a study of what sex made up the majority of the population of physical abusers...the answer was simple, quick, and well accepted:

MALES.

But when the same study revealed what sex made up the majority of the population of emotional abusers, the answer was also simple, quick...only not so well accepted by some:

FEMALES.

Of course there are emotionally abusive males too, just like there are also female physical abusers. Exceptions to a rule do not nullify the rule, however, do they? And these were well formulated studies (even with cluster b's...it is two thirds women who comprise them, and we didn't write the book) that say what they say. But when the man is the villain (figure of speech), I seldom if not ever hear the word:

misandrists.

Ha ha...you don't think they ride in packs? This is interesting...care to elaborate? Wouldn't they do well in group environments too? I would think groups gave them power, and together they could unite and absorb extra admiration (otherwise...what about cheerleaders? They have a group, and the group empowers each of them individually, do you agree?).

Damn, that's beautiful :mrgreen: They're women with nice bodies and a sense of humor, guys. If you don't like it, don't look at them or talk about them or link to articles about them. It really is that simple.
Women have been insulted for dressing in a way that shows their body for so long and they've had to be covered up and "humble" that protests (well, walks) like these are bound to happen now that we live in a free society. I bet the women there are more likely to be fun to hang out with than mentally ill.
And yes, people should be able to dress in any way that they like and not be sexually harassed, it makes perfect sense to me that women have a problem with some of the statements that the article refers to. I'd be worried if they weren't protesting.

An excellent response Jasmine!

Lol... A police officer said that if female students don't want to be sexually harassed they shouldn't dress like sluts and then women made a funny, sarcastic protest. I doubt they were really encouraging students to dress that way in class, even. It's all about freedom. If you disagree that's fine, but I don't think it's bad to talk about these things or raise awareness about them.

I have to say that I have no problem with the slut walks and I've been aware of them since before even reading this thread. But as a Female HPD- I do find the "HPD Lastest Public Stunt" part of this topic and it's presentation very derogitory and offencive.

Not all sluts are HPD
Not all HPD's are sluts

Did that really needed to presented? The corrilation between the 2???

The purpose of the slut walks is to prove that what you wear has should have no affect on your right to maintain sexual freedom and not be a target of sexual abuse. I support that 100%! Much like the "Take Back the Night" walks that many colleges do; wherein women will walk in large groups after dark around campus, to demand their freedom to be able to walk late with out the fear of being raped in the dark.

An innocently dressed female has just as much chance of being targetting as a scantily clad one.
Rape is not something that targets dress code. It's an expression of violence and control that is warped into sexuality. It's aim is mainly to force submission, defile, degrade and humiliate the target. Instill fear and gain the horrific reaction that the preditor requires in order to feel a full sexual release.

Appearance is only the triggering factor to such things, and clothing has less to do with it than than any other feature/movement/disposition/'endorcement' that the victim exudes...

The same thing can be said about children. They do nothing to instigate their preditors attacks, they are just being who they are. The fault, blame, ownous of these attacks remain the soul property of the perditor.

In my opinion, anyone who would blame a victim of rape in any way for their attack desrves a good whipping (at the very least) and some serious psychoevalutation/.reprogramming.

I suppot the focus the 'Slut walks', 'Take Back the Night', and other demonstrations of thier kind.
What I don't support is the way this display of female empowerment has been made to look as if it is HPD women who are pulling 'public stunts' seeking attention, or something of that nature, as implied by the title of this tread.

There's way too much of this type of indirect descrimination on these boards sometimes.
What is happening in the mind of the HPD, simply by reading the title, is a innner association that we are sluts (in the eyes of NON's) and seeking attention by doing these things like slut walks. It re enforces shame and guilt- the corner stones of our disorder and the deepest emotional ties to our inner pain.

Did this really need to be presented in a such a way?
The hatred of the HPD just flourishes through the title of this thread.


I support the cause, but I do not in anyway support the attitude in which this was brought to the table
