People Are Sharing Stories About Being Slut-Shamed, And At This Point, I’m Going To Become Unhinged

21. "One night out, a female friend became upset at the attention I received and the fact that I enjoyed it. She got angry at my slutty behavior and didn’t want to be linked to it. She didn’t talk to me for a few days after. In the climate at the time, I apologized and was shamed. I’m still slut-shamed regularly, however, I refuse to actually be ashamed. As a woman who enjoys sex and wants those needs met even outside of a committed relationship, I’m no longer ashamed or trying to be discreet about it."

"So long as it’s clean, safe, and consensual, I’m pretty sexually open. I don’t hide it, and I don’t tolerate attempts to shame me for having needs or taking control of meeting them. I hope that in some small way, I liberate others around me to shake off that shame and enjoy whatever a healthy sex life feels like to them." —Anonymous, England
