Punknews.org | David Combs (Spoonboy, Max Levine Ensemble) talks sexism in the punk scene
maybe it’s that i just read this book, but i feel like everywhere i’m going people are talking about rape. so of course i just saw this article, and now i like spoonboy even more. kevin, go find him in DC this weekend and give him a hug for me!
I’m telling you this because sluthood requires support. Because any woman who indulges these urges carries with her a lifetime of censure and threat. That’s a loud chorus to overcome. A slut needs a posse who finds her exploits almost as delicious as she finds them herself, who cares about her safety and her stories and her happiness but not one whit about her virtue.
