    Default Which is worse.. "slut shaming" or "prude shaming"?

    Slut shaming:
    Slut shaming (also hyphenated, as slut-shaming) is defined as the act of making someone, usually a woman[citation needed], feel guilty or inferior, for engaging in certain sexual behaviors that violate traditional gender expectations. These include, depending on culture, having a large number of sex partners, having sexual relations outside marriage, having casual sexual relations, or acting or dressing in a way that is deemed excessively sexual. This is often done by name calling (often using the word "slut" itself) as well as covert shaming.


    Prude shaming:
    Essentially the opposite of slut shaming.. making someone who chooses not to have sex OR chooses not to be promiscuous, feel like there is something wrong with that. For instance, when I tell people that I will react in a hostile or even violent fashion if a guy touches me without permission in an inappropriate way or makes inappropriate gestures, I am ridiculed for it and told to "stop being a prude" or "Oh, you really want it, stop denying it".

    Both are equally bad. For both genders equally. People should not be made to feel ashamed for how sexually comfortable they feel.

    Both are equally bad. A person should be able to make his/her own decisions without getting "shamed" by it. If a girl wants to engage in sex with multiple guys, let her be, it's not your problem, it's hers. If a guy chooses to not engage in promiscuous sex, let him be, it's his life, his choice. Nobody should be judged for it. "Prude Shaming" isn't usually as insulting as Slut shaming though. People don't lose respect for you for being a prude, if you're considered a slut, you get no respect, ever.

    Girl's who are sluts get less respect because honestly they can get sex anytime they want and they know it. Personally if I had a daughter no way is she going to dress sluty. It's like if a father has his son come up to him and tell him he lost his virginity the father would say something like. Thats my boy, and be proud of his son. While if a father's daughter told him she lost her virginty he would prob be pissed and want to beat the shit out of the guy who took it from her. Thats the way I see it.

    i think really in combination they are both equally bad.

    women are expected to present themselves as sexually available to people while also not seeming too sexually available, so its a hard line to walk because in either extreme you are called a slut or a prude. obviously the more girls a guy has sex with, he is seen as a baller but for women they're seen as easy and undesirable, lower tier.

    so really both of them in combination are just as bad for girls. on their own, however, im guessing men like girls who are prudes more than sluts (and i think sluttiness can be undesirable more for girls) so i think having a slut reputation is worse for girls, and being a prude (40 year old virgin, its laughable in society) is worse for men. they're seen as creepy, as if something is wrong with them that they couldn't get a women to have sex with them in some way. ._.

    Back in the 90s it used to be that "Women want the right to have sex", "No one should suppress female sexuality". Once real porn came around as an inspiration it was that "You can't make me take it in the ass", "You can't force a woman to xyz". Once real fucking was on the menu, the so called "sluts" didn't want to fuck anymore. So when they had to do double anal and refused it was because they considered themselves "Prude Girls". Call them out on it and you get "You're prude shaming me!". Much hypocrisy. The "Prude Girl" does not exist it's just an excuse to get out of fucking.

    There's a reason promiscuous women were shamed throughout the entirety of human history.
    Say you have 100 couples with children. How many children do you think aren't the offspring of the supposed father?

    People should be able to engage (or not engage) in whichever sexual activity they please. OP should stop being such a prude though.
