I couldn't go, but congratulations on what I am sure is/was a spectacular event.

serenebabe2-deactivated20110817 asked: Not sure anything will come of it, but I emailed Naomi Wolf's assistant about the Boston Slut Walk and she's passing along the info... I think she'd be a great speaker and/or would know great people who might be interested.

fenice-argento asked: Hey, not going to be one of those people who are like "YOU SPELLED IT WRONG!". However, I did see on the facebook page last week that someone pointed out, a mod responded, and the person offered to fix it via image editing software but no one replied back. I bet there are many people who could fix it for you on photoshop, it seems fairly simple (I'd try but I bet it'd look...
Anonymous asked: Spelled "victim" wrong in the official flyer.
Anonymous asked: I think you should have Eve Ensler, the creator of VAGINA MONOLOGUES, come and speak at the event. She is definitely a woman about equal rights. Plus in one of the monologues, from VAGINA MONOLOGUES, she wrote "Reclaiming Cunt;" which is parallel to the slutwalk.

kavalierism-deactivated20111117 asked: I think Ayanna Pressley would be a really powerful speaker for the walk. In regards to the person who posted about having men speak, there's always our local politicians -- Mike Capuano has been very supportive of Planned Parenthood. I have mostly pro-choice contacts at this point, but it might be a good idea to contact people at NOW or Michael Falcone at NARAL (contact:...
