Chapter 5: Forgiving Modesty


Shalit talks about how modesty should not be taken lightly. She disagrees that woman should not have sex without being in a relationship. I feel as though if both parties feel it's not going any further, then let be what it is. I'm so sick of people judging females that have sex a lot. Calling them names such as "whores" and "sluts". I feel as though as they still have the same impulse as males do but do not show it on a regular basis. Females have the same needs as males. The double standard should show through. If I were sleeping around, I would not want to be called a "man-whore" or and "man-slut". Also I think that I am the non-essentialist according to this book. Because I believe that feminists should not be so judgmental towards males.
