One of my favorite things to do at weddings is play “Spot the Slut”. Basically me and my wife try to find the one person who came not to celebrate the wedding, but land a hookup. Short dress, low cut vibes, drunk. What have you seen that would make you say, “Found the Slut!”?

      That’s not a very charitable way to interpret their statement.

      It might be true, which indeed would be problematic, but it could also be the clearest example/stereotype/cultural signalling.

      Something like not all sluts present that way, but people presenting that way might want to be interpreted as sluts.

      Nuance in text is hard, we don’t have to make it harder by assuming the worse interpretation.

        I’m not sure how else to interpret the wording as posted. I’d be interested to read your “charitable” interpretation of what OP wrote.

        OP was looking to identify “sluts” and specified that they were identified by: “short dress, low cut vibe”.

        It’s hard to interpret that as anything other than female, or identifying as female. I’m sure that there are men also wearing such outfits, but I’m not sure if they would be found at a wedding, but I don’t go to weddings that OP is describing.

        OP went on to describe “the slut” as “drunk”.

        So now we have a drunk female, being identified by OP as a slut.

        Being drunk means that you are not able to provide legal consent, so now we’re at my response.

        Happy to learn where I missed something.

          Humorless

          The word you’re looking for is Humorless.

          As in, you’re being an uptight humorless person and none of that is happening. A silly harmless game OP plays with his partner isn’t any of that and you making it such is so silly.

            I’ll add this too.

            OP didn’t say exclusively women. That was vk6flab’s assumption. OP gave a female example, but didn’t say it was only women.

            Also, who said being a slut was a bad thing? A woman who embraces her sexuality and has fun at a wedding looking for a sexual encounter . . . is an empowered woman.
