What are some 'slutty' things that are actually good for me?

Believe it or not, things like wearing bold outfits, expressing your desires, or having open and honest communication about your needs can all be super healthy for your self-esteem and mental well-being.

Why should I embrace my 'sluttiness'?

Embracing your 'sluttiness' can help you build confidence, encourage you to live authentically, and promote a more positive body image. It’s about loving yourself and your choices.

How can acting 'slutty' benefit my mental health?

Acting 'slutty'—or more accurately, being unapologetic about your sexuality—can reduce stress, boost happiness, and help you feel more liberated and in control of your life.

Is it okay to wear 'slutty' clothes?

Absolutely! Wearing clothes that make you feel sexy and confident can be empowering. It’s about wearing what you love and what makes you feel good, not about what others think.

What’s the best way to manage judgment from others about being 'slutty'?

The key is to focus on your own happiness and confidence. Surround yourself with supportive people who love you for who you are, and remember that their judgment often says more about them than it does about you.

The word "slut" is thrown around way too often. Women are accused of being slutty after they do the most innocent things. Even if you are a woman who likes to sleep around, there's nothing wrong with that, as long as you're practicing safe sex and aren't breaking too many hearts. Of course, it doesn't matter if you're sexually active or a virgin, because these "slutty" things are actually healthy for you to do:

1. Wear Revealing Clothing

Wear Revealing Clothing It's healthy to be comfortable with the way your body looks. If you love your legs, then don't be afraid to wear short shorts. If you love your breasts, don't be afraid to show off some cleavage. You're not slutty for wearing revealing clothing. It's actually better for you to feel comfortable showing some skin than to be embarrassed by your looks.

2. Take Birth Control Pills

Take Birth Control Pills Some people will assume that you're sexually active, just because you're on birth control. Of course, that's far from the truth. Some women start the pill in order to regulate their periods. Even if you're on birth control, because you're sexually active, it means you're doing your best to prevent pregnancy. That's something to be proud of, not ashamed of.

3. Make the First Move

Make the First Move If you like a guy, ask him out on a date. It's the twenty-first century, which means there's nothing wrong with the woman making the first move. If you want to kiss a guy, kiss him. If you want to take him out to dinner, then take him. It doesn't make you desperate. It makes you a strong woman.

4. Date Multiple Men

Date Multiple Men As long as you're not in a committed relationship with any one man, there's nothing wrong with going out on a date with one guy one day and another guy the next day. Don't settle for the first man who kisses you. The more men you meet, the higher your chances will be of finding someone who's actually right for you.

Sunshine and blue skies bring positivity and joy and it's important for every woman to take full advantage of it. Even when stuck indoors, it's still possible to enjoy some good vibes. Check out these unique tips on how to make the most of the weather right at your home. Let's celebrate every beautiful day, no matter where we are.

5. Be Comfortable Talking about Sex

Be Comfortable Talking about Sex You don't want to be the girl who giggles at the word "penis" in health class. You want to be the girl who sits there quietly and actually pays attention to what the teacher has to say. The more comfortable you are talking about sex, the more educated you'll become. So don't hold back your questions.

6. Have a Lot of Guy Friends

Have a Lot of Guy Friends You probably aren't sleeping with all of your guy friends. Even if you are, it's healthy for you to be surrounded by men. That way, you'll learn how their brains work. When you end up in a serious relationship, the information you learned from them will come in handy.

7. Sleep with Someone You like

Sleep with Someone You like If you're educated about sex and want to sleep with someone you find attractive, then don't let other people's opinions stop you. Your sex life is none of their business. You should do what makes you happiest, because it's healthier to follow your heart than to follow the crowd.

Don't worry about the way that others perceive you, because they don't know what they're talking about. If they call you a name, then just ignore them, because you're too mature to deal with their childishness. Do you do any of these "slutty" things that are actually healthy?

All the other side stuff is not being a slut, the definition of a slut is someone with many casual sex partners

I think this article applies to girls to an extent. Always have respect and value yourself as an individual.

And @karen most birth control lawsuits are either settled or they lose, because it's 99% of the time user error. You legally will get no where suing for something that is on the list of possible effects, like how you should get a blood panel done to see if your heart is healthy enough to handle a daily pill, its also up to the user to figure out if she feels worse on a certain type of pill, in which case she should have gone to her doctor and gotten another type. Most healthy people have no issues and no long term side effects. You only ever hear the bad stories. No one ever goes and blogs how the pill changed nothing and works great, you just hear the 1%s who had a bad reaction to them. Obviously speak with your doctor about which one suits your needs, and which one they think will react best with your body and have the responsibility to go back if there's a side effect that gets worse or a big problem with it, and not just continue to take it or stop taking it without medical advice.

I don’t have that right either. It’s healthy to have own opinion but it’s not healthy to not respect others opinions with judgmental mind.

Whoever is saying what is right and what is wrong, should realise that your judgmental mind has only one life to rule and that is your OWN and not others lives. You can not decide what’s right or wrong for the whole society. No ONE person has that right.
