i had the most enlightening conversation with frat boys on the walk home tonight. oh wait, first i would like to point out that
a. i was at a student government campaign party tonight and
b. i hate politics and
c. i hate people.

at some point in the party i said i think it's ridiculous that about half the girls i know have been raped or had something close to it happen at parties or frats. one guy there said "that's their fault for being in that situation" for which i could have responded with personal accounts but decided not to because i probably would have kicked his ass so hard. then i tried to walk this blacked out guy home but it didn't work and then he disappeared. but i didn't want to walk home 19 blocks alone and get mugged so i ended up going with 4 frat guys (one if whom i hooked up with once so i guess i know him) so that i was in a group. i tried to explain on the walk back that it isn't cool to have to feel on edge when you're walking down the street just because you are a woman and you look cute. one dude said it's your responsibility to have control over your emotions to which i think that is bull shit. i should be able to walk home from a party and feel safe. i should not have to feel obligated to ask some guy for his number just because i used to have a class with him and now we are talking and bonding about life. i should not have to feel dirty because some guy whistles at me. i should have the same rights, responsibilities, and possibilities as any other dude.

i just wish i understood drama. or people who weren't understanding of those that have different backgrounds,

p.s. i am drunk.
p.p.s. the boy is too far away from me.
