3410,
I'll bet someone thought you were 'Mrs. Hulk'.

See? It's not easy being green. Apparently.

For a start, you wake up in the morning and the only remaining body paint is on your eyelids.

It was a party thrown by the UC Science-fiction club. The allusion was well-recognised. Also I won the previously non-existent 'sluttiest costume' prize.

aw they made a prize specially for you, isn't that sweet.
But now I'm wondering what did the trophy look like?

I'll get my coat. -
Interestingly, the word "slut" appears at PAS all of 45 times (now 46). I have no idea how many of those occurences are the inspiration or efforts of Emma. :)

Sorry to disappoint, it was a pair of stick-on Spock ears.

I've been trying to work out how to feel about that. I've also been trying unsuccessfully to find the fabulous discussion my friend Sinead and I had about the word 'slut'. In that slut-shaming is something absolutely guaranteed to make me rabidly angry, but I will happily refer to both myself and her as looking slutty or behaving sluttily. It's 'nigger' territory, basically.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure you're not allowed to use that word though. Not even for the purposes of academic comparison.
There's an Italian slur, terrone, which means bloody southerner. I can use it when referring to myself but you'd better not.

I've always operated on a policy, when retelling my life history, to exaggerate slightly (or a lot). That way while everyone is going "oh what a wicked/exciting life you led" I'm quietly thinking "it was actually a lot tamer than that". So I get the rep of being exciting without really having done much that would get me into much trouble (or poor health).

We all mythologise our past, right? With me it's more a matter of not mentioning the down side, so that I look appropriately heartless and shallow.

Emma- Umm, I'm just intrigued - I know who two of the three were, but was number 3 who I think it was?
-
They weren't the Bee Gees, by any chance, were they?

I have no idea, who do you think it was?

...__drumroll__...

Italics FAIL!
Never mind who No.3 was, I'm with No.6 & seek the identity of No.1!!

OMG, my brain.
How long d'you think you'd still be spitting out hair after that?
-
In stitches right now.
-
Green hair.

Ok - Sorted now, thanks...

Interesting indeed. When younger - from the ages of 20 to 28 - I had a very, very active sex life. My exploits were many and varied, and took place in a large variety of settings with a very large number of people, over a couple of continents, and sometimes there was more than two of us, but I don't ever remember being called a slut, and certainly never did I feel my behaviour was "sluttish". I had a lot of fun, I met a lot of people, and all of the experiences, bar one, were consenting. I liked sex, alot. And I just happened to like it with lots of people. It's such a sexually repressive word, "slut". Meant to keep women in their place. I find it incredible that we're in 2009, and people still are so quick to judge, and be so condemnatory. Shame on them. I still call myself the Queen of the One Night Stands, and I'm old enough to say that I have pride in my once ferocious sexuality. Live while you can, I say, and enjoy it.

Sayana - amazing I didn't bump into you ;-) Didn't Bowie look cute in a parka? I was hoping for Station to Station or The Return on the Disco King both of which did get a few outings on that tour. Space Oddity I can live without luckily as it pretty much never gets played live anymore.

The thing about 'slut' is that it doesn't seem to relate to one's sexual exploits at all. So Sinead and I have both have it tossed at us (only and always by women in the offensive sense) but people we know who are just as 'bad' if not worse than us don't. It seems to be more an attitudinal thing, I guess, and a response to another woman seeing you as a threat.
We are both also people who are very secure in and happy with our own bodies. At least with me this is an attitude which has been largely untouched over a range of twenty-five kilos, several dress sizes, and twenty years. It's about what's inside your head, not what's on the outside of your body.
We do both have fabulous tits, though.

It was going in all sorts of exciting directions, but looks like this thread just rolled over and went to sleep before 10pm. How romantic...

when you're in bed you're not always sleeping, you know
