Why do women get called “slutty” and derogatory names for liking sex?

It’s really annoying that females get called ”slutty” it’s annoying that anyone gets called it for minding their business and enjoying sex. But guys don’t get called out as much. I do health mission work for now for about 2 years and I travel to different countries. I’ve been with different guys in different countries I mean I’m not Not going to have a sex life for 2 1/2 years. My friend “jokingly” back home in the US called me slutty and lucky no one will know. Which I took offense to. Also The culture of sex shaming is way different in other places than the great United States

  • Okay, lets get one thing straight that women like yourself keep trying to misrepresent, NO ONE (at least in the overwhelming majority (like 98%) is saying its wrong to like sex. Now your fully aware of that because every one likes sex with rare exceptions so when some one calls you a slut they are not saying you like sex and its wrong. You know that so don't try to frame it that way because its a lie and again, you know it. What people call slutty is the behavior to jump from person to person i. e. multiple causal sexual partners. So their is a distinction and trying to pretend like its because you like sex, which every one likes, is intellectually dishonest.

    Now the reason why its frowned upon is because statistical data shows conclusively that the more partners a woman has the more likely she will be to cheat, divorce, be unhappy in long term relationships etc. etc. etc. So men who want relationships are against promiscuous women i. e. sluts. Men who are into casual sex (like the ones your going to actively seek out), love them because it means they can get easy sex with minimal investment i. e. your a sale/discount item same thing they could get elsewhere but for cheaper. So that is the issue.

    As stated, its not sex shaming, no one is going to married couples and yelling at them to not have sex, so its not sex that is the issue, its the lack of self control and poor judgment that people have issues with as you will inevitably bring those issues to some poor unsuspecting guy because you think that casual sex has no consequences (even though everything in life has consequences) and then your going to drag him down because of your poor choices. That's what people are against.

  • They are being called sluts for liking sex. They are being called sluts for sleeping with different guys all the time and doing that quite frequently or even pretending that they are dating just to use their wealth.
    Man who do that are called dicks or assholes. So it's not a thing only women have. It's just this specific word is aimed towards woman

  • Hey, I choose not to answer but instead suggests you go watch "Sex and the City" and be liberated.

    Its 2019 coming 2020, not 1920. So be free, dear.

    • Lol I am a lover of sex and the city I watched when I was in college.

    • So be free hun. Stop worrying about what others think. Choose your lifestyle and thereafter don't regret. Live life to the fullest.

    • Yeah, watch sex and the city, the show about a career woman, written by a career woman who admitted that she is unhappy with the her life choices that she glamourized in said show. Seems like a wise decision. No one can force any one to act a certain way, but pretending like their is absolutely no reason for it and people just do it to be assholes is idiotically stupid. Their is a reason for it.

  • They do but they shouldn't. There is nothing wrong with liking sex. Even a lot. I'm glad there is still some women who love sex. They aren't slutty, they are normal. Sex is beautiful and it's an amazing experience. Its a natural need and desire. Both sexes like it equally as much and no one should be shamed for liking needing something natural and wonderful.

  • Don't know it sucks though. Since I don't experience it I'd like to know if those labels are more often guys or girls who use them. If either, do they come from people with healthy sex lives?

  • Men fuck, women get fucked, and a man might be called a predator instead.

  • There needs to be more women that are open about liking sex. The current taboo culture around sex is just unproductive and inconvenient. I guess people just can't handle the fact that other people can like sex and its not just reserved for them. The people that put women down for liking sex are usually actively having sex themselves.

  • Welcome to the world of double standards, darlin. And you ask "why" ? Because the world is a fucked up place !!

  • Usually as I've noticed it's fun to say. You have the same right to be offended as they do to speak their mind. Personally I've slept with some women that requested such names (Along with some others that I won't repeat on this question) in the heat of the moment Anyway, you know you're not a slut so don't let small things bother you.

  • People view women as like little girls. They feel it's not for them to be sexual and called good for sex.

    • Well that’s Stupid.

  • It has always baffled me why women are sluts & men are studs for doing the same thi g

  • We aren't sluts we just love Love

  • Americans are prudes and hypocrites. The church has conditioned us through the years. Enjoy your sexuality. Be discrete of course but do enjoy your life and explore your sexuality.

  • Nobody likes whores its in the bible

    • Don’t put the Bible into sex bye

    • Sex was in the bible

    • I’m aware we aren’t whores.
