'Unsolicited advice' is just that. 'Unsolicited'. Unless Bristol is asking for it, I don't think it's anyone's place to tell her how to define or label her experience.
this article is gross, the victim blaming is disgusting, but please. she might not have asked to originally be in the spotlight but one doesn't go on DWTS, release a memoir at the age of 20, and go on public crusades/speaking tours if they don't want to be in the public eye.
yeah iawtc. she has made herself a public figure now. when the 2008 campaign was going and she was just Sarah Palin's kid, that was one thing, but she's been promoting herself as a public figure for a while now.
I agree that it's inappropriate to tell someone else how to label their experiences, and the tone of this piece is the exact opposite of helpful.
That said, I've already heard plenty of "fucking a drunk chick isn't rape, Sarah Palin's daughter said so" bullshit from guys. Discussion of this topic in the public eye needs to include disclaimers that most people do, in fact, believe that having sex with people who are too drunk to consent constitutes sexual assault, because otherwise it's just an excuse for assholes to believe the horrible shit they do is OK.
Yeah. Some of it was on Youtube comments (which are full of stupid assholes anyway), but some of it was from guys I know at work, and that particular conversation ruined my opinion of a few people.
