(v.) the act of bringing embarassment to a drunk individual. The individual is usually sober, but if drunk enough, shaming can occur while the subject is awake. All shamings should be recorded in some form, either through pictures or movies. Shamings usually occur because the individual passed out first or passed out with their shoes on.

Shaming can be a number of things: piling random objects on a person jenga-style, writing on them with permanent ink, shaving or cutting the individual's hair into embarassing styles (ex: a mullet), or any other creative way to bring embarassment upon the intoxicated party without their knowledge.

Sometimes referred to as the individual being "owned".
The freshman was so drunk that he passed out first AND with his shoes on, that we shamed him by duct-taping him to the couch, piling food on him, and drawing obscene things on his face.

Fanny shadowing 

When women can’t let men organise a group dinner or weekend on their own terms and collaborate separately to make shadow plans and agree logistics. The women consequently voluntarily take on the burden of making arrangements and perpetuate outdated gender roles.
“Hey Hun, the boys said they would organise our get together but noone’s done anything and it’s , shall we say Saturday 6pm at yours?”
“No Hun, let them sort it out, no good ever comes from fanny shadowing.”

fit shaming 

Claiming that people who are active, healthy and God forbid have the slightest care about their physical appearance are terrible, shallow people. This makes it more acceptable to eat cake all day and never see the light of day or walk anywhere. This practice of shaming was made up by the larger members of society who have less self esteem and try to make it look out of the norm to be fit and healthy. This kind of practice makes it seem more normal for someone to be on a scooter at age 30 with no joint problems compared to someone who regular goes to the gym.
Kelly: You eat too healthy and are way to active! Your so shallow!

Pete: No, your just fit shaming me so you feel better about your body...

Slut Shaming

(V;): to shame someone, male or female, for sleeping around indescriminantly with anyone and everyone they can, often without even knowing the persons name.

Many neo-feminists and radical feminist who have no concept of true feminism use the term incorrectly to attempt to call out anyone who makes a statement about their feelings on sluts, or for making statements such as "if she's been with 5 guys since Wednesday and it's only Saturday, she's not girlfriend material."

Much of what is pegged as slut shaming is nothing more than someone saying "sleeping around a lot is pretty disgusting and dangerous."
Dana: Jenna has been bringing guys from the bar back to our dorm all week, and most of them don't even know her name. It's sad and disgusting.
Radical NeoFeminist: HOW DARE YOU SAY THAT SHES A PROUD WOMYN AND HAS A RIGHT TO HAVE SEX WITH WHOMEVER SHE WANTS WHEN SHE WANTS STOP SLUT SHAMING
