This project looks at the many origins, uses, reclaiming, shaming, and long herstory of the term slut.
In gathering the information, there is so much to discuss, unpack, and find ways to open a dialogue. This project continues on the steps on many before me who have addressed the cultural issues, guilt, and inequality that comes not just with the word, but the belief of the immortality connected to womxn and sex.
Becoming an expert Slut
i.e. How to play
There are 3 games of trivia- Jeopardy style, all with different questions.
The games are best played on a laptop, desktop or tablet. They may not run on your phone.
The games can be full screen, or in a window.
The games can be played with a group of people, or by yourself.
The program does not keep track of your score, so please do that on a sheet of paper.
The games are to keep the dialogue moving forward, looking at the topics around sexual equality.
And one last detail, the use of womxn is spelled with an x, unless in direct quote.
Enjoy!
And start a dialogue.
