A slut is a person that is unapologetic in their sexuality and chooses to not conform to societal pressure to be monogamous, repressed, and/or shamed for following his or her natural sexual desires. Slut used to be used as a derogatory term to describe women that had what “polite society “ (AKA male-centered/sexist) considered poor moral character. Generally, this term was used in a way to criticize, shame, and ostracize a woman for her sexual behaviors. The word slut is now being reappropriated by females, as well as woke people of all genders, to convey a sex-positive attitude toward sexuality that is free from shame and judgment (see sex-positive). Many books and media have been created to explain this movement. Examples include: The Ethical Slut (book) Slurs and appropriation: An echoic account (research paper) Stigmatizing Women's Sexuality (academic article - University of Idaho Women’s Center)
