hard disagree. Go out and call 20 women sluts and see the reaction.
Your group of friends or whatever anecdotally only use it like you’re describing. But I have heard it recently being used derogatory
It went from a patriarchal normative, to being reclaimed. Are people down voting over the ambiguity of “polite”? Or because rediscovering the term “reclaimed” isn’t really a shower thought?
Calling someone a derogatory term has never been acceptable in polite company. It doesn’t really make sense.
Although the ultimate origin of the word slut is unknown, it first appeared in Middle English in 1402 as slutte (AHD), with the meaning of ‘dirty, untidy, or slovenly woman’.
And slut has never had a positive meaning.
Slut was never a term used in polite company
I’m too sleepy to slut.
It’s not there yet… but it’s making progress.
