Levi Johnston Didn’t Date Rape Bristol Palin

Despite clumsy wording suggesting as much, in her book, Bristol Palin was not date raped by her then-boyfriend Levi Johnston. Pretty much, as soon as the first excerpts from her book were released and she spoke of drinking underage and losing her virginity in a haze soon forgotten the next morning, pretty much everyone came to the conclusion that she was date raped. Palin half-heartedly explains that she’s not accusing him of date rape, nor rape at all, he just raped her and she’s passively passing on that information in the form of the written word. On Good Morning America, speaking to Robin Roberts, Palin conceded on the description of a ‘stolen’ virginity, ‘That’s what it felt like. I’m not accusing Levi of date rape or rape at all. But I am looking back with the adult eyes I have now and that was a foolish decision. I should have never been underage drinking, and I should have never gotten myself into a situation like that.’ I don’t know what to think of this. Pretty much, what I’ve been reading on certain boards, is that Palin’s the reluctant face of abstinence, though in the same interview she exclaims that she hates the word. She sounds like she’s regurgitating this thin, rape-apologist argument about how it serves her right for drinking. Heavens.
