Guy | Girl
The next day, at the same time, the two sat in the same seats, staring at each other. Both refusing to speak to the other. The teacher ahead once again in deep slumber, if he had to hold detention for a month just for these two, he might as well catch up on his sleep. The girl twiddled her hands around, making up her mind. She finally decided to speak.
"Have you ever been called a slut?"
He startled at her voice, narrowing his eyes with suspicion, wondering why she was talking to him. "Of course not. It's not used for guys."
"Have you ever been called a whore?"
"I already said no." He said, now a little annoyed. "Where are you going with this?"
"Have you ever been called a skank?"
"Why are you asking these questions? Just get to the point already."
"Because, girls are mindlessly labelled with these names for choosing to wear what we want, do what we want, be with who we want."
She knew he was known as a f*ckboy, a player, a manwhore, whatever they called it these days. "Guys who sleep around wear it like a badge of honour, girls who sleep around hide it like a wretched scar."
