I believe that the word 'slut' is simply a word used to make women feel bad about sex. It is a control word. If a woman doesn't show enough sex drive, she is called frigid. If she shows too much, she is called a slut. Society expects women to have a certain amount of sex drive, and bullies them into thinking they are bad or wrong if they are different. I think women should be able to have as much sex as they please without having to worry about stupid labels.

A person who shamelessly has sex with anyone, no matter who it may hurt. Usually said person flaunts the fact in other people's faces, even when no one wants to know. [A reaction of eeeewwwww is common.]

A woman who sleeps with a lot of men in a short period of time. For example, a woman who sleeps with 7 different men in 7 days. Pretty much a slut.

A woman who sleeps around. With many different men. To me anyone who if at any point in time became pregnant would have to figure out who the father was.
