Things that apparently make me a slut + slut-shaming

Reasons why I'm a 'slut':

- I had sex at 14

- I had sex outside of marriage

- I've had more than one sexual partner

- I'm not straight

- I enjoy sex

- I enjoy discussing sex

- I like to dress in sexy clothing

- I've had sex with people while not in a relationship with them

- I have big boobs

- I'm a girl

- I've been sexually assaulted.


Slut is a made-up word and I hate it. Why is my sex-life anybody's business? People talk about these so-called sluts as if they're faceless, nameless people and when I tell them I fit the same criteria as their 'sluts' they suddenly get uncomfortable. Why? Does it bother you to realize that these 'sluts' are real people? With feeling and emotions? Who are actually good people if you stopped being so judgemental? Is it because you're too scared to call out a slut to their face?

So if you think that any of the above are slutty, tell me to my face, explain to me exactly why I'm a 'slut' and then maybe, maybe I'll respect your opinion.
