Okay, maybe "misuse" was a bad choice of word. My point is though, that, while women shouldn't feel the need to conform to the constraints you mentioned, it's also not that attractive to go the whole hog and treat sex like food or oxygen, if she's doing so with loads and loads of lads. I'm not one of those conservative types who believes sex "should only be done in marriage" or even that it should only be done in a relationship; I don't consider one-night stands etc. to be an awful thing. But if a girl is just fucking people for the sake of doing so, night after night, bloke after bloke, then I'm not going to be keen. If it's what floats their boat, fair enough, but.. I just find it unattractive and a bit off-putting.

- ... how does a woman "misuse" their sexuality? How is being "extremely promiscuous" or going through several sexual partners or "only thinking of themselves" in any way "misusing" one's sexuality? I don't understand what you mean by the word.
Why should a woman with multiple sexual partners feel ashamed? Why should a woman who has casual sex feel ashamed? Why is a woman not conforming to society's heterosexist, monogamous, conservative, and sexist expectations a bad thing?
Because we're talking about the definition of "slut", which (at least, where I come from) only relates to women. If we were talking about manwhores then I would've mentioned men.

- And most importantly, why do you mention "women who misuse their sexuality" and not "men who misuse their sexuality"?
Really? I'd consider rape to be misuse of sexuality...

- I fail to understand how anyone can "misuse" their sexuality.
But then, I'm going off-topic. And as I say, I could probably have used a better word than "misuse".
Yes, but I wouldn't consider any of that to be slutty behaviour. There's a difference between polyamorousness/no-strings-attached sex, and screwing a different guy every few days just for the sake of it.

- Being aromantic yet sexual can be a part of someone's sexuality, being polyamorous can be a part of someone's sexuality, etc.
...Those are the only reasons for having sex? You seem to have forgotten things like procreation, love, relationship-strengthening, fun...

- Don't care what her reason is; there are not so many reasons for having sex. Either for money, pleasure or getting off.
