Dear Breakup Girl,
I was riding on the bus with this guy back from a school trip to DC. He sat
with me, we held hands, and he tried to go up my shirt. His friends sat behind
us and were talking about what we were doing and they were teasing him after
the restroom break. Now I'm afraid that he'll betray me and that my whole
reputation will go down the drain as a whore. Why do the guys always blame the
girls?

Dear Alise,
DC is a really, really good place to ask that
question.
Love,
Breakup Girl
PS. But seriously, here's your civics assignment: read
my rant about double standards. You're right: it is totally no fair that his going up your
shirt should (if it did) affect anyone's "reputation," let alone just
one of yours. Listen, sweetie, try your best to stay above it all. And to have
guys' hands stay above your shirt in public places. It's not your fault. I'm
just saying.
