A definition for manwhore/slut that I heard in my Navy (never again volunteer yourself) days was mentioned in a conversation between two guys in my shop who both fit that definition by their ready admission - they said if you had slept with more people than your age.
There were girls on the ship who fit many people's perception of the word, or the "slept with every member of the football team" kind of thing. But that is a radically different environment from most civillian locales.
When you have 5,000 people out to sea for months at a time interesting things can happen.
One young girl jumped off the smoking area which was midships because she was pregnant with a married man's baby. Fast way to go with 30 ton screws churning in the water
Another couple caught doing things on the catwalk - which is directly below the flightdeck in the open - was forced to call their respective spouses that very same day by the XO. I saw sunlight every 3-4 days (that deep purple water out in the middle of the Atlantic is beautiful), constantly smelled like sweat and diesel fuel, and still knew of more than a few storerooms that would have been much more private places.

edit: nice Avatar Sabrina, that original film is a classic - the remake is just there without the same feel or power.
