There is the naming of the Slut: This is particularly hurtful. I think it happens in groups of women when we don't understand each other or are feeling insecure. It is sticky because the word slut when used by ones self can be empowering. When used to tear a woman down it can be really hurtful.

Anybody else?

I need a bloody mary and maybe some more sleep then, because respectfully MsMerrick it really looked like you were saying those words are endearing words. If not then my mistake and let's carry on...
