A slut is someone, usually a woman, who__ stepped outside of the very narrow lane that good girls are supposed to stay within. Sluts are loud. We__e messy. We don__ behave. In fact, the original definition of __lut_ meant __ntidy woman._ But since we live in a world that relies on women to be tidy in all ways, to be quiet and obedient and agreeable and available (but never aggressive), those of us who color outside of the lines get called sluts. And that word is meant to keep us in line.
