Sexual Bullying and Slut Shaming

Join the conversation for high school counselors (middle school too!) on sexual bullying and slut shaming. Sexual bullying and slut shaming can be from guys or other girls. What are your concerns and attitudes about sexual bullying in high school? What questions do you have? How do you (or do you?) deal with this issue?

Emily Lindin

Emily Lindin is the founder of The UnSlut Project, which works against sexual bullying and slut shaming in our schools, communities, media, and culture. The UnSlut Project was inspired by Emily's own experience. When she was eleven years old, she was branded a “slut” by her classmates and was bullied at school, after school, and online. During all this, she kept a regular diary. Now a Harvard graduate pursuing her PhD in California, Emily started The UnSlut Project by blogging her own middle school diaries. The project has grown into an online community where people who have experienced slut shaming and sexual bullying can share their stories, and where girls who are currently suffering can find support. Emily has been featured sharing her story and speaking out against slut shaming on ABC with Katie Couric, CNN with Brooke Baldwin, Al Jazeera America, HLN, DNTO radio with Sook-Yin Lee, NPR with Lance Orozco of KCLU, Deutsche Welle radio, Radio Ireland, and in many magazines and blogs including The Daily Beast, The Huffington Post, and The Observer.
