slut
ho
bitch
We all know these names; most of us have been called them lots of times. We all know what they mean, but most of us don't know why we are called them. It's like, if a guy has sex, oh boy, he's a player, he's the man, he's all cool 'n' shit, but if a girl goes out and does it, she's a slut. Hell, she don't even have to have sex to be labeled a slut or ho. She can get that label just from her clothes and how she wears her makeup 'n' shit. People label girls like this to bring them down, to make sure she ain't all that, you know what I'm sayin'? People get scared of girls who flaunt it, girls get jealous, and guys get threat- ened. Guys are supposed to be the only ones who are into sex, who want sex. Girls are supposed to act all shy 'n' shit. That's a bad rap, man. I ain't lettin' no guy want it from me. I'll want it when I want it -and that doesn't make me a slut or ho.
