Jessica's
recent performance of Lee Hyori's "Miss Korea" sparked up the stupid
fangirls to do what they do best: slut-shame. Slut-shaming isn't a new
trend amongst the K-Pop community and happens every time a female idol
does something that is considered "overtly sexual" by fangirls. There
was a lot of slut-shaming going on when After School pole-danced and
Girls' Day came out with "Expectation".
As
a feminist I can understand where they're coming from. There's no doubt
in my mind that women are exploited for the benefit of men in the
entertainment industry, but slut-shaming totally goes against what I
believe in. You don't just say that an idol is a slut, whore or a porn
star just because she's acting sexy on stage or in a music video. That's
totally unacceptable, especially since you don't know a thing about
that idols personal life to even call her a slut.
