The Social Slut

We wouldn't know when the word slut became vulgar from erotic. Even the definition has changed lately.
Someone with loose sexual morals or who is sexually promiscuous isn't only the one to be associated with the title, the definition has changed a lot more than that now.

I never understood this society anyway a promiscuous girl is called a slut while a promiscuous guy is considered as a stud; a player. Sometimes it’s not even about the girl - boy difference. A jealous girl who is mad at some other girl just because she has something that is desired by her desperately lands the happy one being a slut. Girls are called sluts just the way they dress up. They are called sluts because they are with their boyfriends and they are happy together.

As it turns out the phrase, "Common sense is not so common" is very applicable to us.
We are on with branding people without even considering implications of it. I kind of sees it the reason for breeding so much rapists among us.
Now you might thing how is that actually happening, now let me give you a scenario. All hypothetical off course.
A girl living in a sub-urban area, having decent money and very happening lifestyle; going out with male friends a lot and wearing short clothes. She will be labeled as a slut in just a matter of time, now how do I support this statement of mine; well I really don’t have to tell you that our society is full of hypocrites.
So now when a girl is labeled as a slut among the people, the goons; who are totally in power nowadays, thinks they have got the right to advance at her. People assume being slut is like being a prostitute; off course they haven’t heard of a word called dictionary where they can actually look up the difference. Their advances one day results in a rape.

Now not talking hypothetically, I was dating a girl sometime back and I used to drop her to her office, she even introduced me to couple of her friends. Sometimes I used to pick her up in the night, just because m picking her up in a car that somehow gave right to the people to talk about her. A couple of week later she got to know that people are talking that she is a slut going bake home with different guys.
Now what part is worst is that even if she is going back home with different guys that doesn't necessarily makes her a slut. When did we all become judges to decide?

Today I was reading a article about break ups and how men and women takes it. It was there that when not in a serious relationship men used to label their exes as slut, and it wasn't very pleasing. I'm not among the one who do it and yet I was being accused.
I totally understood the meaning right then, of being called as a slut when you are not. It’s like being accused of something you are not. Sexism still exist in our society and that too at large, if some male is going streaking during a football match or cricket match he becomes an icon and when Poonam Pandey announces to pose nude if Indian Cricket team is going to win the world cup she becomes the super-slut (Though we all wished her to shed clothes in our sultry minds.)
