I participate and I think dialogue and examination of the term is important, I don't refer to myself or others as 'sluts'. For better or worse, I think the Slutwalk is more positive than negative as it's opened a lot of dialogue and has brought issues such as victim-blaming some much needed attention. I'm excited to read your thoughts on the Slutwalk more in depth as I'm a big fan of your videos. I like the idea that 'slutwalks' only work in an a-historical, postfeminist context. We had a 'slutwalk' in the netherlands as well. To me, that felt similar as something that happened two years before: to celebrate International Women's Day, a fashion magazine organized the 'stiletto run', where women could win a year's worth of free shopping if they won a race across Amsterdam's most expensive shopping street on really high heels. And this was the most televised event in the country about women's rights that year -- not the rampant abuse just a few miles away in the red light district, domestic violence or institutionalized rape. Only without a context do these 'ironic' statements make sense -- but in a world where real horrific stuff still happens, they're definitely out of place.
