Umm technically by ignoring them she is the opposite of a slut. Just saying.

Not that there's anything wrong with sluts. I'm very slutty myself.

[-] Bubbaonthebeach@lemmy.ca 19 points 6 days ago

Most women learn from a very young age that the real definition of slut is 1) you used to have sex with me and not longer do so you're a slut; 2) I want to have sex with you but you don't notice me therefore you're a slut; and 3) my boyfriend, husband, guy I like thinks you're hot so you're a slut. Doesn't have anything to do with what sex the "slut" may or may not be having. Many women were labelled sluts while they were still virgins.

[-] ExhibiCat@lemmynsfw.com 12 points 6 days ago

Good point. It's just a slur. I take things too literally sometimes

[-] Omnipitaph@reddthat.com -2 points 6 days ago

slut isn't a slur lol Otherwise, neither of us would be casually dropping it without fear of social repercussion.

[-] HalfSalesman@lemmy.world 5 points 5 days ago

I say this as someone who loves sluts: Slut is technically a slur.

[-] Omnipitaph@reddthat.com 2 points 5 days ago

I will concede and do some research.

For whatever reason I was under the impression that a word had to reference a specific group to be a slur. Like, anyone can be a slut. Man, woman, trans, black, white, et cetera. Like, who is "slut" targeting? Sexually active people? I know that it is weaponized against women, usually those who are NOT actively engaging in promiscuous activities, but I haven't exactly come across many slurs that can be used against multiple groups.

Perhaps the root of my understanding of what makes a slur itself is the issue. Like I said I'm going to do some research. As a known slut, I apologize to any who came across my comment and were offended.

Words were considered slurs even before there were social consequences for using them.

[-] Omnipitaph@reddthat.com 1 points 5 days ago

Fair, and yes, though we tend to censor ourselves when referencing known slurs in this day and age. You won't find me casually dropping Ns or old cigs while talking about those slurs, and I doubt you would either.

I guess it would make sense to counter that slur with a counter-slur.

I.e., when somebody calls you a slut, respond by calling them a "needy one" or sth. Might hit a spot.

where the "need" is the need to be an asshole, i mean

[-] Manticore@lemmy.nz 6 points 6 days ago

Sure but that doesnt matter. The point is making insults they thing will hurt or humiliate you, because they feel humiliated. People do that by insulting presumed insecurities.

Women get called fat ugly sluts, men get called small dicked virgin losers. We're just calling each other failures at our gender roles.

I'm very slutty myself.

I hope you're prepared for the flood of dik piks you're about to receive from the unwashed masses

[-] Zetta@mander.xyz 9 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago)

OPs got plenty of their own dick pics on their profile.

I salute you ExhibiCat, fellow uncut person 🫡

[-] ExhibiCat@lemmynsfw.com 6 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago)

Yeah I didn't want to mention that because I don't like to share them nonconsensually. I also mark them as NSFW of course. At the instance I post them they're welcomed. But yes my username checks out. 🤭

I'm in Europe, circumcision is very rare here.

I probably should make a separate account though to post SFW. Thanks for the reminder

[-] HalfSalesman@lemmy.world 1 points 5 days ago

I want my foreskin back.

[-] ExhibiCat@lemmynsfw.com 3 points 6 days ago

Well I'm a guy. Heteroflexible and pretty open though so I don't mind dick pics.

In fact the instance I'm on is full of them :)
