NOT ASKING FOR IT!

April 13, 2012 5:59 PM

I'm going to SlutWalk SL,UT and I need something great to paint on my shirt.

I really like the idea behind the Slut Walks around the globe, but I am too conservative to parade around in a bathing suit or lingerie. I've decided that since women are raped wearing everyday clothes I can still support the movement by going in jeans and a T shirt.

That's where you brilliant people come in. I need a great slogan for my shirt that encompasses the SlutWalk idea.

Bonus: I might be able to convince my very large, hirsute husband to walk with me. What should his shirt say?

This photo made the rounds on Facebook recently. (I'm assuming I'm linking to it in a way that anybody can see, but I have no idea if that's right.) Maybe you can do something with it?

fwiw Most people at the Slutwalk I attended were in jeans and a tshirt or similar. My sign said 'Ask me if I'm asking for it' on one side and 'Honk if you love sluts!' on the other.
Some I like:
- Got consent?
- I can't believe we're still protesting this shit.

For your husband:
Stop rape now, ask me how
Real men take no for an answer

I really like your paintings. I think it would be cool to have a graphic that incorporates slut into some sort of geometric design on your t shirt.

For your large hirsute husband: a pink t shirt that says, "Don't laugh, this is your girlfriend's T shirt"

On your shirt:The right to be let alone...


On your husband's:The right most valued by civilized humans.

Slightly paraphrased from SCOTUS member Louis Brandeis

this poster resonates with me and encompasses what you said about jeans and tshirt being just as valid for a slutwalk.

for your husband, in the vein of i <3 new york shirts:
I <3
enthusiastic consent
