to slut shame

to literally call a girl (who is not a prostitute by profession) a slut and tell her she should be ashamed of herself for the way she dresses simply because you do not like the way she is dressed

Craigslist post in Montreal, Canada for April 4, 2013:

" (...) you spotted me walking quickly to my class and decided you needed to stop me so you can give me your opinion about my clothing; You proceeded to slut shame me.What were you thinking? (...)"

N.B: I nominated this post for 'Brest of Craigslist', because it was actually written in as a poem, of which i have an excerpt above.

Shame Shuffle

The rapid cover-up that ensues when a couple engaging in sexual acts is about to be happened upon by an outsider. The cover-up is erratic and poorly executed by the shamed couple, resulting in an awkward shuffle.

I went to call my brother and his girlfriend for dinner and I could hear them doing the shame shuffle as I knocked on the door.

Shame Phishing

The duplicitous posting of images and information intended not to honestly share but to troll for negative commenters in order to attack them.

She deliberately went shame phishing online by posting less than flattering pics of herself and waiting until the inevitable negative comments trickled in, and then boy did she really launch into attacking them back!
