Yes, totally get that. My causal, intimate lexicon I use with my partner and friends accidentally bled into ILX, and for that I apologize.

Yes, that book is a fav! And its definition of the word is the one I use when I, or the people in my life say it. It was probably front of mind today as I was reading this amusing bio of some local supper club chefs on the rise using the word freely and humorously to describe their food.

Yeah, I was also under the impression that "slut" had been reclaimed and self-applied by people who fuck a lot. Surprised to see a backlash on ilx of all places.

I'm sorry, octobeard, for my hysteria.

((octobeard’s post also was not gendered overall, and cis dudes have been a prominent part of the discourse being addressed, especially today, afaict [from scrolling on the train]))

Thank you for reminding me to think of the men and that describing a woman as a prude who’s probably a secret slut is actually fine, it’s been a very educational week for me ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
