So today was the SlutWalk walk in London, this article from the BBC is a general piece of journalism documenting the event, which is obviously what the BBC do,

However, recently I read an article on the subject written by a female writer for the Daily Mail, for starters I shouldn't have been reading the Daily Mail but it really proved that even the ladies working for that particular paper are coming across as misogynists.

Basically, she was saying the classic, 'I don't mean to be racist/sexist etc. but...' and then saying something racist/sexist etc.

Her version was, I'm not saying its a girls fault if she gets raped but wearing clothes like that, she's attracting the wrong type of attention. Exactly the same sort of story as the one that started the SlutWalk revolution in the first place.

Counter productive, and quite embarrassing.
