Anthony, while I understand that you're trying to turn the word around to have a positive meaning, by giving a woman a label, based entirely on her libido is negating the point.

Women are sick and tired of being judged on the basis of their sexuality (whether for the worst or best).....we just simply want to be women, and for the most part, our sexual drives are all pretty similar to each other so why on earth single out some women who are perceived to have higher sex drives than others and label them 'sluts' (even in a good way).

Also, if we are going to have a 'positive' definition of the word slut in the future, how are we going to work out who that applies to? There are women out there who go along having lots of sex with lots of different people, for entirely the wrong reasons (showing no respect for themselves and certainly gaining none from their partners)......if we label these women sluts and say it's a good thing, won't it simply encourage them to go on behaving in an emotionally destructive way?

My comments earlier on in this thread, were directed at someone for whom I am concerned, as I'm not sure her motives are as clear cut as she thinks. I remember when Raven18 was on this site as a virgin despite being in a serious relationship with someone. They split up and she then lost her virginity to someone else, and has continued to have sex with several different partners since then. I'm not sure about the rest of you, but to me this smacks of a vulnerable and somewhat insecure person, trying to find some self worth by being 'popular' with the boys since her serious relationship ended. Unfortunately, I fear, that far from finding self worth and popularity, her vulnerable state is being taken advantage of by silly boys who want to experience sex without having to care about the person they're having it with. I can guarantee you those guys are not telling their friends about a wonderful sexually liberated woman who's in control of her life and her destiny and who's delightfully sexually open, they're telling their friends 'See that girl over there, I fucked her the other night, she'll do anyone'. That doesn't smack of mutual respect and appreciation to me.
