I prefer the term "manwhore" actually and yeah, again, it's another social classification that's largely bullshit but that doesn't mean that sleeping around is responsible, sensible or remotely the "right thing to do".
Plus, we're not calvinists.

I have been called a 'musical slut' before because I will play with anyone, anytime. However things have changed now I am older, and now I have standards.
So, in closing, I believe the word slut can be used in many ways.

It's also a pretty pejorative term too.
Well if you can't use "slut" to describe Paris Hilton who
can you use it to describe? It's more a question of should you use pejorative terms at all?

I don't know nearly enough about Paris Hilton's sex life to pass any kind of judgment on her sexual promiscuity. I know she's dated a string of guys, all of whom she presumably had sex with, and I also know she privately shot a sex tape with her boyfriend at the time.
I don't see how any of the above automatically makes her a slut. Is there something else I'm missing?

Yes. She's a woman.

How about you ease off the moral indignation for ten minutes and let them speak for themselves?

Because it's not just about "Hay guys she's had sex"
It's "Hay guys, She's had a sex tape leaked on the net. And she fucked Mark McGrath in a bathroom stall. And she fucked the Rock in a restaurant kitchen. And she fucked Brian Urlacher in an elevator.*"
I'm not saying that the term slut is a bad thing, but if you're going to use it, I think she's pretty much the poster girl for it.
*Note, each of these events occured prior to the sex tape.

And the slut-sayers have spoken! Yeah, that's pretty slutty, god bless her!

I would, but you'll get the normal cop out answers from them, about how it has nothing to do with the fact that she's a woman, when we all know that's EXACTLY the problem.
Paris can fuck the Rock in a kitchen, and it's Paris the Slut, not Dwayne the Slut. She can videotape herself having sex with a boyfriend, who then
sells the tape to a porn network, and it's Paris the Slut, not Rick the Slut.
Trust me, I hate having to get all indignant, and it's something I've been doing a lot of lately, but double standards piss me off more than anything.
Paris Hilton's crime is to be a woman of means with a sexual appetite that borders on that of a man.

Stop being such a whiny, emo, sensitive-flower bitch. In your usual blind zeal to claim some nonexistent moral high ground, you've of course totally fucking missed the point.
"Paris Hilton's crime is to be a woman of means with a sexual appetite that borders on that of a man, while also displaying absolutely no sense of discretion and practically begging for her sexual escapades to be public knowledge."
It's not about fucking non stop, it's about leaving her biz on the streets, and even before the infamous tape all she was really known for was for fucking guys.
There definitely is a double standard when it comes to the use of the word slut, but sorry old chap, this ain't one of those times.
