Greetings Faithful Followers,
Another summer prepares to come to a close here at the monastery of
mayhem deep in the bowels of o Omaha Nebraska , bringing with it colder
temperatures, the smell of firewood in the air, frosty mornings, pumpkin
flavored everything and oh yeah! HALLOWEEN ! Lets add to that list with
another omaha end of summer tradition The Omaha Slutwalk .

| Some of the great signs and the empowering messages they carry |
What is a slutwalk you might ask.. it is a tradition started in Toronto, Ontario, on April
3, 2011 it was expected that only 200 people would show but over 3000
came, this started a trend that has been repeated in cities all across
the US, Canada and europe in response to the Toronto,s callus treatment
of a rape victim stating if she didnt want to be raped she should not
have dressed like a slut . This evente organized by Billie and Kristy
is a way of empowering women and providing support and raising awareness
of victim shaming and slut shaming in the cases of sexual assualt.

The
participants of the event usually dress provocatively and this year red
lipstick was worn by marchers as a show of support. The event ends
with a march through the Old Market District in downtown Omaha with much
chanting and displaying of signs and placquards.
The march brings out all kinds of people who's aim is to raise social awareness for the injustice of victim shaming.
