Young people these days only use the word "slut" in dirty talk, such that calling someone a slut in polite company is now unacceptable. The sluts stole the word for themselves. Great job, sluts!

yeah but you used to be able to use it. like if your family friend Margaret was eating five zucchinis at once lengthwise you would say "Margaret, stop being such a courgette slut". or if a pressure cooker full of oatmeal exploded and covered her face with oatmeal you could say that Margaret got oatmeal bukkaked to explain to the intake nurse at the hospital.

nowadays you cant say that kind of thing. because of woke.

It used to mean a woman who has sex with lots of people, and it was derogatory. You'd call a woman a slut to shame her, because old people hated sex.

Calling someone a derogatory term has never been acceptable in polite company. It doesn't really make sense.

Although the ultimate origin of the word slut is unknown, it first appeared in Middle English in 1402 as slutte (AHD), with the meaning of 'dirty, untidy, or slovenly woman'.

And slut has never had a positive meaning.
