Read the story of how Bristol Palin lost her virginity
By Virginia SmithJune 18th, 2011, 2:00 pmComments (68)
Bristol Palin's book Not Afraid of Life: My Journey So Far doesn't hit shelves until next week, but the part everyone's actually excited to read — the story of how she lost her virginity to and eventually was impregnated by Levi Johnston — is already making the rounds. As it turns out, the whole thing was pretty typical high school and seems to have pretty much sucked for Palin.
In the book, Palin writes of getting drunk off of too many wine coolers while on a camping trip with Johnston that her parents didn't know she was on (see? high school), then waking up alone in the tent, unclear on what had gone down while Johnston "talked with his friends on the other side of the canvas" about his conquest. Classy!
She also claims that Johnston "cheated on me about as frequently as he sharpened his hockey skates" and when he learned of her pregnancy, responded, "better be a (bleeping) boy." Probably a safe bet that a different version of events will show up in Johnston's own memoir, Deer in the Headlights: My Life in Sarah Palin's Crosshairs, scheduled to come out this fall.
Even if this two crazy kids can't work it out, nice to see that they're doing their part to keep the publishing industry afloat.

And I didn't think anybody could be more stupid than Sarah Palin. Boy was I wrong.
You mean Johnston? I agree.
Dating a douchebag like that also makes you an idiot, sorry.
Doesn't look like she really had many great other options up there though.
Publius is EASILY more stupid than Sarah Palin.
If her story is true, I don't see stupid here, only a very insecure high school girl. Not that unusual.
The "stupid" I see here is her writing this book. What value is that going to add to her son's life? She can't need the money that badly, and if she wants to be a responsible parent, she should shield her son from her vitriolic relationship with the father, no matter how big a jerk he might be.
Agree with profrobert 100%.
Also, I have a feeling that a lot of what is said about the father is fabricated or at least not the whole story, probably goes both ways.
I also have this suspicion that the whole implied date rape may not be entirely true either, but that is just me, like the Palin family doing damage control, but maybe I am being overly cynical.
"the father" by which you mean Johnston, who went around all news channels to trash-talk the Palins instead of staying at home and taking care of his baby, is but a poor victim of this ruthless family?
Gosh, even you julian.
I just think there is more to the story. I don't think that Levi Johnston is completely innocent in the story, or anything. And, was what he did rape? Idk, I wasn't there. I hope it wasn't, because no one deserves that.
Like I said, the debacle between him and the family likely goes both ways.
And, I am usually the last person to doubt a rape victims words, but the Palin family has something to gain from vilifying him in this way. Maybe she was too afraid to say something earlier but I feel if it was really rape as she describes it she would have spoken up sooner to keep the family image of pro-abstinence.
Again, I'm just expressing some doubt, because I really could see the Palin family using a serious issue of rape for good PR. I don't know what happened, and personally, I have no personally invested interest. That is between the Palin family and Levi Johnston.
Also, one last thing, I really am trying to be as delicate as possible with my comments because I know this is the type of thing that people could misinterpret me as saying something misogynist.
Dude, really. If it was 'really rape' maybe she wouldn't have spoken up because there is a huge stigma attached to being a rape victim. Maybe she didn't want a violation of her body to be used as a P.R. stunt. Maybe, if she did come forward, she didn't want to be accused of lying or asking for it or just of being stupid. Rape culture is immensely ingrained in American culture and has horrific consequences for women who get raped. Keep that in mind before making these comments.
Also, I very much know about what you are saying Eva. I'm just talking about possibility here because it is easy for us to sympathize with someone when they say they have been raped, but we weren't there and we don't know what actually happened.
Also, she doesn't say she felt like she was taken advantage of, and we don't know how drunk they actually were.
But, anyways, this is my last comment on this section because I know I will just be misinterpreted by people that I think women are always or usually lying when they say they are raped. Or that I think they all do it to get attention.
Was this a story that really needed to be told?
If she wants to be a responsible parent she needs to keep her son away from his jerk of a sperm-donor. Oops, I meant, father.
sperm donor's ejaculate into cum buckets fyi
You mean sperm cups?
Also, Bristol was passed out at the time of the "donation" -- which made her about as capable as giving consent as a cup.
umm... If that story is true - that was date rape, or at least sexual assault. He's not just a pig he's a criminal.
How is this not a crime if she wasn't sober enough to consent?
Operative word seems to be "if" her story is true.
Yes, completely rape! Does she process this as such in her book, or at least...augh this sucks so much.
She's probably too dumb to realize what happened. Boy, I can hardly wait to see how the feminazis are gonna handle this one.
um, the feminists are as outraged as everybody else with at least 2 neurons in their head- rape is rape is rape, asswipe.
Except when it isn't rape, as in this case.
Except when yeah, it absolutely is. Forcing yourself on a blackout drunk girl is means you've committed rape.
Say it ain't so, bitch! That means half the state of Texas is... uh... ah, nevermind.
Hate her mother, hate her fame-whoring, but if this story is at all true, I can relate (never thought I'd say that about this one)... these kinds of things happen to a lot of teenage girls, probably more often than most people think.
And it's there own goddamned fault.
Too bad you can't spell properly and don't know grammar either (hint: *their). Also, it's not their fault, it's the rapists' fault.
Aw take a joke.
Aw, take your head out of your ass.
Look at that troll, he's trying so hard.
He makes me so proud!
Sounds like he raped her.
Fuck, you're quick, Dan.
The message Bristol is sending teen girls across the country: don't report your boyfriend if he date rapes you, everything will work out in the end.
This reeks of bullshit. Who the hell gets so drunk off of wine coolers that they black out?
Ahhh, thank you! I thought no one would say it!
You never got drunk off wine? Weird!
Wine coolers are about 6% alcohol, so pretty low, but still definitely possible.
Alcohol is alcohol and women usually have a lower alcohol tolerance than men, and it's entirely plausible that she got drunk. In the Netherlands I've seen plenty of girls really drunk off Bacardi Breezers, for example.
All whores, too! Nice girls don't drink so, therefore, no problem!
Does she have a nice ass? The party up front is pretty good but what's going on out back?
RAPE! RAPE! RAPE!
I really have no sympathy whatsoever for Bristol. I don't blindly hate the Palins like everyone else, not a fan definitley, and not for reasons you might think. But def not a fan. But after reading this, and I know it might not be true, which will be telling if it's not, I really,really want someone to just violently beat the shit out of Levi Johnston. Like to where he can't walk anymore, paralyzed, like hooked up to a breathing machine the rest of his pathetic life, and dies as a vegetable. Or better yet, someone pulls the plug on him and makes it look like an accident.
Wow, for the first time ever I sort of share in the sentiment with you here. This rapist, with his backwards son-preference, does deserve a good beating.
And to all who are, once again, doubting a rape-victim's words, fuck you!
Well, what if she is lying about it? Still,I want someone to beat the shit out of him.
Oh I don't want him beaten cause he may have raped her, I just hate him. But either way, long as he gets the shit beat out of him.
Dude, if I'd get a dime for every time someone somewhere says "what if she lied about it" or "won't anybody think about his reputation?" every time a woman or a girl says some rapists raped her, hell, I'd be richer than Bill Gates and that Lebanese-Mexican guy who is even richer than Gates.
Okay, and since you just want to beat him for no reason, I guess I don't exactly share the sentiment.
Now,hold on, I am by no means saying rape claims aren't or shouldn't be taken seriously or anything like that. I know I've said some sexist things etc, but that was just to get a rise out of you people. I do take an issue such as this very seriously. But, you can't deny that there are cases where men are and have been falseley accused of rape. The duke lacrosse team anyone? I'm not flat out denying that he may have actually raped her, but, I'm not even going to accuse him of that right off the bat,and join in the torches and pitchforks crowd either. It is still innocent until proven guilty yes? But, has there not been tensions between the palins and this guy? Is it not possible that yeah, maybe they are trying to lie and make him look bad? No doubt he is a douche who deserves to have the shit beat out of him either way though, I think.
Okay, the Duke Lacrosse case-- something happened to that woman, whether they put their penises inside her or their pool sticks or whatever (I mean really, she's a Black woman - a poor one who has to strip for a living - alone in a room with at least 10 privileged white boys, in the South, and she's stripping -- do you really think they didn't sexually abuse her? I mean really really?? They acted like complete gentlemen, is that right?).
Second, why is rape still the only area in which the victim is automatically assumed to be lying? If people go to the police saying their cars were stolen, although only 2% of all alleged car thefts are known to be made-up for insurance money, people don't first assume the victim is lying (despite the 2%). So why is this the case in rape cases?
As for the tensions between the Palins and this guy, maybe if he had been a decent person from the beginning there wouldn't have been tensions, right? I still can't get over him trying to cash out on "their story" while the girl was at home with "his" male progeny.
Women aren't some magical breed of human that never lie. In a car theft case there's actually a car missing. Also the person is probably not pissed off at the car for some reason.
Here's a quick quote I found, "FBI reports consistently put the number of "unfounded" rape accusations around 8%. The average rate of unfounded reports for Index crimes is 2%".
Here's another: "Eyewitness misidentification is the leading cause of wrongful convictions in this country, contributing to 75% of convictions later overturned by DNA testing. The eyewitnesses to the rape, who identified Calvin Willis as the perpetrator, provided inconsistent testimonies throughout the investigation and trial. The victim herself testified that she had seen Calvin Willis"

Women can and do make false accusations for their own purposes, because they know people like you will irrationally believe them no matter what.
Okay, so women do lie sometimes, under 10% of the time about rape, according to the source of all truth -- the FBI (who, by the way, is way behind in understanding what legally counts as rape-- see more details by googling "ms magazine" + "would your rape be counted")
But 8-10% is a small number and does not warranty that every single-fucking-time a woman says she was raped the first thing you hear is "she's lying." What about if we heard it only 8-10% of the time, instead of 100% of the time? Also, eyewitness misidentification is not a problem relevant only to rape cases-- and even if it was relevant only to rape, your statistic is irrelevant, because when it comes to rape, 80% of the rapists are already familiar to the women prior to the rape. Only a small percentage of rapes are committed by strangers jumping out of bushes (google "rape myths").
So yes, at 8% "unfounded" accusation, I will believe the women at least 90% of the time. You should too, it's only math.
Gahahaha! Got you all! Dumb ass fuckers. Women that get raped are askin' for it. True dat.
When a girl puts herself in a position where she is too drunk to remember what happened and its with someone who thinks they have implied consent its not rape. If she was passed out or it was a complete stranger it would be a thinner line.
Sorry girls love playing the victim instead of taking responsibility for drinking problems/post-spreading their legs regret.
Except what Bristol said was she black out then heard about Levi talking about his conquest. How does blacked out not equal passed out to you? She was drunk and she couldn't consent if she wanted to. She was raped.
Yeah except this is an allegation in a book written for $$$. If it was rape she should have reported it. Period. Except she didn't. Ever. Never. Except now. For Money.
Question is, if she's claiming rape and he didn't, yes, it's a possibility, well, what's going to happen? So then if it's a lie, she's lying, and well, we all know where this is going....
Whenever I read stuff like "not rape"'s I really wish men who pass out drunk would get raped and/or robbed more often.
But seriously "no rape:" legally, having sex with a person that's passed out is rape. If the person with whom you want to have sex is not in a capacity to say that s/he wants to have sex with you and you put your penis/hand/pool stick insider her or him, then it's rape. Just so you know, next time you see a girl lying on your couch passed out.
Women DO have sex with Men that are too drunk to consent. Yes, sometimes the men DO regret that. In our society they could never get a case brought to trial on those grounds. If the women had a single drink they'd say the man was the rapist.
She never claimed to be passed out. Just said she was unclear on what had gone down. She never used the word rape herself.
"She never claimed to be passed out. Just said she was unclear on what had gone down. She never used the word rape herself."
If it walks like a duck, quacks like a duck and looks like a duck... -- does it have to also publicly state in the public square that it is a duck for it to be a duck?
For all the victim blamers up in here: https://shakespearessister.blogspot.com/2009/10/rape-culture-101.html
Especially these sentences: "Rape culture is spending enormous amounts of time finding any reason at all that a victim can be blamed for hir own rape."
"Rape culture is the insistence on trying to distinguish between different kinds of rape via the use of terms like "gray rape" or "date rape." "
"Rape culture is pervasive insistence that false reports are common, although they are less common (1.6%) than false reports of auto theft (2.6%). Rape culture is pervasive claims that women make rape accusations willy-nilly, when 61% of rapes remain unreported."
"Rape culture is the pervasive narrative that there is a "typical" way to behave after being raped, instead of the acknowledgment that responses to rape are as varied as its victims."
"Rape culture is the pervasive narrative that a rape victim who reports hir rape is readily believed and well-supported, instead of acknowledging that reporting a rape is a huge personal investment, a difficult process that can be embarrassing, shameful, hurtful, frustrating, and too often unfulfilling. Rape culture is ignoring that there is very little incentive to report a rape; it's a terrible experience with a small likelihood of seeing justice served."
There you go.
Thanks Eva.
I actually always wonder why dudes like J Frazer (and a few others on this site) go out of their way to be rape-apologists. Is it because he himself has raped somebody in the past and doesn't want to admit it?
No one is victim blaiming. We are speaking out against when the innocent are falsely accused.
Oh, and there's no such thing as rape culture. It's just a term to try and shame males,and jealous anger at girls with nicer/bigger tits.
nicer/bigger? I call "redundant"!
Hey, that's pweorful. Thanks for the news.
