Are You Getting It?

But I wanted to know more. Mark’s lock

and key synecdoche explaining why bad

girls are given the boot was not enough.

Where do you think this good/bad girl

label comes from?

“I think it’s an on-going label. Think about

it. Women who had affairs back when

kings and queens ruled over Europe were

either beheaded or completely ruined in

a social environment and if a woman’s virtue was stolen before she married it would be a shame on her whole family. Since I can remember I have always known and learned that girls are supposed to be more reserved which isn’t fair and shouldn’t be true. They shouldn’t be judged for whatever they want to do”

So are you saying that you would give a bad girl a chance?

“I’m saying that I’d rather she not be a bad girl.”

slut…we just can’t win."

But “even the Goodest Girls have a Bad Girl inside who not only gets it, but who gives it” says Barrecca. We polled 30 women as well and found that girls really do enjoy being a bad girl: “There is just something about being bad that is oh so good” Jen, 21, from Laurier answered, “I mean, besides, you can’t impress everyone in life. If we don’t put out we are prudes but if we have too much experience we’re a slut…we just can’t win. So

why not do what gives you the most satisfaction?” There is that fighting feminism power I have been dying to bring out from women in my career. You go and do the things that you want in life, girl, and don’t let anyone stop you! This is the type of attitude us girls need to embrace. It’s time to stop living the life everyone wishes you to and to start taking it by the horns, literally. Be a bad girl if you want and crack that sexual joke you heard last night. Stand tall and be sexually proud: promiscuous or not.

Get it and Own it: Girl Confessions

"Last week I told a really racy joke to my co-workers and everyone laughed. One guy even commented on my sense of humor. I had no problem cracking another one the next day" -- Kate, 26

"I once laughed really hard at one of my guy friend's sexual joke. The guy next to him kind of gave m a funny look but I just returned it with a smile and cracked this line: "What? Have you never seen a girl on top of things?" He laughed, and so did everyone else. We hooked up a couple weeks later" -- Mary 24
