I was just trying to answer the OP question, "So anyhow, I'm wondering--what makes a slut?" as it applied in my own life, not make value judgments about the use of the word "slut."
Others seem to just dislike the word itself, because it implies those very judgments.
I tried to make it clear in my post that I was using the term slut to describe three persons: me, myself, and I. And only at a certain time in my past. My behavior, by my own definition, fit the label at that time. Does that say nothing about Lindy the slut, and everything about Lindy the poster? How does that say more about me (the poster) than about me (the so-labeled?) Does it make me an asshole if I use that term to describe my own behavior?
