Stacey Dash, the Clueless actress who’s now a co-host on Fox News’ Outnumbered, found herself in hot water last week after weighing in on the new sorority anti-fraternity party policy at the University of Virginia.
On Outnumbered last week, the panel of co-hosts discussed University of Virginia sororities forbidding members from attending and drinking at frat parties in light of recent sexual assault allegations. The policy was unpopular with all of the women on the board, but it was Dash’s comments about “bad girls” being “naughty” that sparked ire.
“I think it’s a good thing, for the good girls, to you know… Women, sorry, not to be told, ‘stay home, be safe.’ The other bad girls—bad women—or the ones who like to be naughty, might go out and play and and get hurt,” Dash said.
“But the other thing about this is it then blames the alcohol instead of the person who over-drinks, so you know, it’s like, the same thing with guns,” the sometime actress continued. “Guns don’t kill people, people kill people. Alcohol doesn’t get you drunk, you get yourself drunk.”
On Monday, Dash decided to address the controversy caused by her ineloquent remarks in a Facebook post.
“After a failed attempt at humor about “good girls” and “naughty girls,” during my recent appearance on Outnumbered, I transitioned to the very serious issue of men blaming alcohol for their vile behavior,” Dash wrote. “LET ME BE CLEAR: I am a victim of physical and sexual abuse. My point was that there IS NO EXCUSE for a man taking advantage of women under any circumstances.”
She continued, “I believe that these universities focusing on alcohol consumption as a means to stop evil behavior takes the focus off the real issue of the objectification of women and how that can be prevented. I apologize to anyone who believed I was blaming the victims of these horrible acts.”
