How About Slut Appreciation?

"Slut shaming" is when women are unfairly and harshly attacked for being sexually active, or for seeming to be sexually active, or for expressing their sexuality. It's a double-standard; men are almost never attacked for the same sexual activities.

Is this happening to you? Is someone trying to shame you or make you feel inferior because you're sexually active? Or because people think you're sexually active? Is anyone trying to make you feel like a "slut," a "whore," or a "skank"? Are you being insulted, mocked or bullied for expressing your sexuality? Do you feel like your community, your family or your peers are against you because you're having sex? Or because they think you're having sex?

Are you being attacked for dressing in ways that other people consider "sexually provocative"? Are rumors being spread about your sex life? Is anyone spreading explicit videos or photos of you in an attempt to hurt you? Is your sexuality a topic of conversation online, in school, at work, or in your town? Do you feel like you're being "slut shamed"?
