(highly derogatory): A woman with the reputation of being promiscuous or indiscriminate in her choice of sexual partners.
In some cases this reputation is accurate, in which
case the woman in question has earned the reputation by engaging in sexual activities so frequently or commonly that her habits have become widely known to the public. When it is a reputation generally, the term is normally quite accurate.
In other instances, the
label may be inaccurate and merely used to slander a woman for an isolated
case of sexual indiscretion, or it
may be a prejudice against a scantily-clad woman. It
may also be used by other women in gossip or confrontation, in which
case its use reflects extreme bitchiness.
In any
case the term carries negative connotations and is normally used in the pejorative; nevertheless, there exist males whose next action upon labelling a woman "slut" is to proceed to have sex with her.
That she was a slut was something her contemporaries unanimously agreed upon.
"You slept with my boyfriend, you slut"
"I hate the way she talks, she's always chewing
gum, and does that stupid lip thing, I even have to sit next to her in
class and watch her hit on randoms, her
facebook statuses are soooo attention seeking and ohmygod have you seen the way she acts around that new guy? What a total slut. Like, do you guys agree with me or what?"
"Could that slut show any more of her tits? I could basically see that bitch's nipples."
"So many sluts in this club we're bound to go home with some
fanny."
