I suppose it could just become another word for promiscuous. That is what it means, after all. If men can call themselves and each other players, why can't women call themselves and each other sluts? What with so many promiscuous women around now, I would have thought now is the best time to start. And if a man can be called a player by a woman and hold his head up high and say "yeah", why can't women learn to do the same? I don't see why they should have a problem with doing that. It would be a quick and easy way to disarm the insult.
All the more reason to reclaim it. Lots of women are sluts these days, to the point where reclaiming it shouldn't be a huge challenge, due to the vast numbers of them. What I don't understand is why, even though so many women are very promiscuous nowadays, it's still so easy to be shamed for their conduct.
