Getting a Bad Reputation
Lance: Did you see Kim at the party last Saturday?
Paulina: Yeah, I saw her. Why?
Lance: She was wearing a Skimpy dress and all of the men were Leering at her all night. I used to think she was a Nice girl. Isn’t she worried that she’ll get a Reputation?
Paulina: A reputation for what?
Lance: For being…you know.
Paulina: No, I don’t know.
Lance: For being Easy! It doesn’t take much for people To jump to the wrong conclusions when a woman is dressed like that.
Paulina: So based on one dress she wore to a party, you’re ready to consider her Promiscuous.
Lance: No, not just Based on that. The guys at the party were talking and one of them said he used to date her, and he said…
Paulina: Now you’re listening to some sleazy guy at a party Boasting about his Conquest. The question is, why are you so ready to give Credibility to Rumors like that?
Lance: Whoa, don’t Go ballistic on me. I was only telling you what I heard. I thought you might be interested.
Paulina: Well, you thought wrong. I used to think that women were Catty, but you men are much, much worse!
