Dear Jordin Sparks,
Hey! How are you? Great job presenting at the VMAs on Sunday. You looked really pretty and your ponytail was bangin'.
While Elizabeth Hasselback may be correct in saying that your little outburst about promise or purity rings was courageous and brave, especially when said on MTV, you pretty much bitch slapped all of your fans and those of us who didn't wait to have sex after marriage by calling us SLUTS.
Sluts? Really, Jordin?
I really hope that you don't believe that having sex before marriage and making the choice to not wear a "purity" ring makes you a slut.
You didn't perhaps go to a school that taught absintience only sex education, did you?
You are, of course, entitled to your opinon. You're right, there isn't anything wrong with wearing a purity ring. You're not offending anybody. That's fine if that's your choice.
However, instead of saying that people wear them "because not everybody wants to be a slut" maybe you could have said something like, "Because not everybody believes in sex before marriage!"
Essentially what you've done, is insinuate that anybody who does not wear a promise ring is a slut, or that saving yourself for sex after marriage means that it will "save" you from becoming a slut.
While my personal opinion is that making promise to your dad or to God that you will wait until you get married to have sex is not only unrealisitc and surpressing the growth of your sexuality - I respect your decision to do so.
Just don't call me a slut, OK?
Slutty Lesbian Kisses,
Cate

PS. OH. I see. You didn't mean to offend anybody and you can't believe what you said was that big of a deal...but you're sorry. Right. Whatever.
