How many?

Partners, children, abortions must a woman have for you to consider her a "slut"? Does the age when she loses her virginity play into that stereotype?


[edit] *..... Let's stay on topic ladies, the question is about women not men. Don't deflect and muddy the question as posited. " ***

(2nd edit) .... Let's not get "hung up" on the word "slut" please. Use another word in your mind if you don't like the word I chose. It's the idea of the question that I'd like answered.......

I don't think ANY of it matters; why is it that a man can sleep with whomever, whenever with no repercussions, but if a woman does the same thing, she's a slut? As long as you're being safe & have standards (and not just sleeping with ANYONE who crosses your path), do what you're gonna do.

So sleeping with anyone who crosses your path would make a woman a slut?

Yeah. Have some self-respect & keep one's standards decent. I "played the game" like a guy when I was single, but I was always safe & pretty selective. When you toss your dignity out the window & just start fucking any guy who'll look your way b/c you're desperate for attention (like I've seen more than a few of my friends do), there's a problem.

I also don't like chicks who use abortion like birth control. I have zero problem with abortions, I'm pro-choice all the way (hell, had an abortion when I was 21... and I'm happy to tell anyone why if they ask), but I know a girl who's had 5 of 'em, and that's fucking ridiculous. Either close your damn legs or learn what birth control is.

Hey now I have five children LOL! All by one man though.I just think that even very promiscious females should first learn responsibility before being so umm FREE ..They should care of themselves enough to be and put more value on human life then thinking of it as a parasite.It is a big deal and not a damn game.

I don't consider anyone a slut. I don't care what other people willingly do with their own bodies. It's not my call nor my place to judge by calling names.

I don't consider women sluts.  I may think her choices are not healthy both emotionally and physically but I'm not going to apply a label to shame her for them.

So how do you define playing the game like a guy and tossing your dignity out the window?  I am not being snarky, I just want to know.

I'm going with this.  It does no good to label people or try to shame them for their behavior.

Playing the game like a guy = don't rely on a member of the opposite sex's attention to validate your own self-worth. If a guy is using you, drop him, or find a way to use him right back. don't get caught in the double-standard; if a woman wants to go get laid, she should be able to without judgement - guys can and do all the time, so why can't we (I'm not saying it's neccessarily right, but why is what's good for one not good for the other)? Why is it that if a man goes out, hooks up with a random chick and then never calls her again, he's a "pimp" or a "stud", but if a woman does the same thing, she's a whore?
I'm happy to say I've never NEEDED a man to be happy with myself (which seems to be a rarity anymore).
But if you're screwing a diff dude every night of the week, not using protection, throwing yourself at any guy who shows you the tiniest bit of attention, or feel like you need a man's attention to feel like you're attractive/worth something, your dignity & self respect are probably gone.
