This is great. I had a similar experience, however I managed to succeed at sluthood somehow. I had a few open relationships, then discovered the word ‘polyamorous’ and that gave me some license to be honest and slutty. At one point I started using SLUT as an acronym for Sexually Liberated Unwed Teen/Twentysomething/Thirtysomething. (Now, I’m married and still a little slutty, so it no longer applies.)
Also, I already had a word for Santorum: Post-anal drip.
Like post-nasal drip, but…ya know.
Nice to know there’s a less graphic alternative.

I think that it’s ok to have one word for having a lot of sex with rapidly changing partners, as there are implications – e.g. risk of disease & need for protection or certain social contexts that are required. The problematic part is that the word we have for that is connotated very negatively. But that ties into the general trend that female promiscuity is regarded as negative and non-feminine. I’m not sure how have a new word for “good promiscuity” is to solve that problem. Muhc more important is that we actually encourage a positive and responsible attitude towards sex especially in girls, but also in boys. It’s all fair and well, if girls learn to treat themselves well and take sex as the sex thing and not as their duty as part of the relationship thing. But boys need to understand this and learn ways to deal with that too. So mothers and fathers, talk to your son about female sexuality, too.
But that was something of an aside. The point is rather simple: a positive, healthy and responsible attitude towards sex and a corresponding sex life is independent of the number or speed of succession of one’s sexual partners. And mixing both of those things up in one term is not good. You be long-time monogamous and treat yourself terribly sexually and you can be long-time monogamous and have the most positive sex life and the same goes for promiscuity. So keep good sex mindsets and number of partners separate.

Excellent article, one worthy of Susie Bright or Betty Dodson! I have a cousin who works as a sex counselor. I’m sending her the link to this posting!
FWIW, I recall seeing a slang dictionary in the liner notes of a P-Funk album (forget which one). One of the words was “breakneck”, which if I recall refers to a woman who has lots of sex, recklessly (the male equivalent is “breakdrake”).
@MamaPajama – “Self-Awarely Super-Sexual”. Hmm, that forms the acronym SASS. Add a “Y” to the end of it and you have “sassy”, though I know that word is already spoken for!

I left this with aag but I thought I should share share here to…
A skank (or skank ho) has lots of sex that is damaging and disrespectful to mind and body. It is already a word but it works.
A sexalicious women would have lots of is fun, awesome, and life affirming sex

Loved this piece! I will have my daughter read it when she’s a bit older. Like Luka, I will be pondering the linguistic challenge you posed. For now, I’d like to propose “Self-Awarely Super-Sexual” for those who have lots of the fun, awesome, life-affirming, safe sex.
