The Bomb!

The class 12 batch (2011-2012) of Kendriya Vidyalaya Pattom was blessed with a unique bunch of girls. Zarin, Nazrin, Alina and Kalyani (the last one is me, btw). This is not to say that there weren’t other interesting people, because in my 6 years in KV, I met and got close to a lot of very exciting people. But I mention the 4 of us specifically because we were called by some, the “Vedi Gang”. For those of you, who are unfamiliar with the term, quite frankly put it means the Slut Gang. I've left KV Pattom and won’t ever go back there, and I honestly couldn't care less about what some lousy shithead wanted to call me.

But yesterday, Alina’s friend asked me not to ‘cntct’ her because ‘it wil affct her lyf’ if she keeps up her ‘cmpny wit us 3 ppl’. Make no mistake, I don’t give a crap about his insights of me, but when he tries to mess around with my relationships with my friends, that is where I decide to write about it publicly.

What constitutes a “slut”? Rather who gets the privilege of being called one? Because I can assure you that there was not one girl in school who sold her body for money. So is it a girl whose uniform is tight fitting and doesn’t resemble a sack? A girl that looks good perhaps? Who doesn’t have a decent haircut (whatever that means)? Is it a girl who talks too much? About things that must not be mentioned in public? Who doesn’t know her place? Who uses bad language? Is it a girl who talks to too many guys? Or one who has had multiple boyfriends? Or a girl that, god forbid, flirts?

If anyone says yes to all or any of those, it’s high time they got themselves checked. Regrettably, there are shitheads everywhere who not only believe but also preach such definitions of a “slut”. My objective is not to point out how messed up society is (which it is, btw, at magnitudes that defy hope) and this is merely a response to my conversation with the shithead last night.

However, I do have one thing to say. These “sluts”- I know quite a few of them, including the 3 I already mentioned- are simply extraordinary! They (or we) are smart, sexy, confident people who don’t take crap from anyone. Call me “slut”-ist (like elitist) but contrary to the term, we are completely and so utterly out of their (slimy lowlife shitheads’) league. And if being all that makes me a “slut”, I’m extremely proud to be one.
