If we go with the usual intended meaning, i.e. the standard dictionary definition of SLUT ("a promiscuous woman"), is it a good idea for women to attempt to reclaim the word for themselves? Can it be done? If not, why not?
Nigger (nigga) and queer have more or less been reclaimed, at least to a large extent, so I wonder if it's doable with slut. Slut has been used for a long time, just like the other two words, but nigger (nigga) and queer have been reclaimed quite successfully.
What are the pros and cons of reclaiming the word SLUT?
