RELAX (don't do it....🎤) I used to sit in positions to make myself appear slimmer. I would sit uncomfortably to avoid a roll or to avoid my thighs expanding to the size of Austria when I sit down (ya feel me?). ❤ My weight back then was my worth and if anything made me look bigger I instantly felt worthless.

She evens shares a day where she feels down because she wakes up to find a new breakout on her face, and she not only takes a close up photo of it but then explains how it brings her down, but how it wont keep her down.

So, go follow her at selfloveclubb, and get inspired to love yourself without the ideas of beauty society crams us with. Because, you are truly your own kind of beautiful, and once you realise your own self worth no one can take that away from you. 

Better yet, consider starting your own self love instagram and blogging about your very own self love journey, and challenge yourself to start loving those things you are so insecure about!

You are walking down the street, you put an effort this morning into wearing a nice outfit and being creative with your make-up. You walk past some boys from your high school and as you pass them you hear them laughing, 'What a slut'.

You are sitting eating lunch at your workplace, your manager has it out for you and before you knew it spread a rumour that you slept around and even has an STD. Your fellow employee's start smiling every time you walk past them. And one of them even comes up to you and says, 'do you have any plans tonight, slut?'

Face it. Sometimes on a daily basis females are attacked with degrading, sexualised attacks on the way we dress, what our figures are like, and if we behave with confidence or not. Usually these attacks come in the form of a single word- SLUT.

But, the next time you are called a slut. I want you to remember these little facts.

The first time the word 'slut' was used. 
Geoffrey Chaucer, an amazing writer back in the 13th century wrote 'The Canterbury Tales', where the word 'sluttish' was used for the very first time in English history. However, the word was used to describe a male. This male was not dressed well and had an untidy appearance, maybe even some bed hair. And for that, he was called sluttish.

The history of the word 'slut'.
As history passed and the word changed into a term used only for a female prostitute or a kitchen maid. When used in reference to a kitchen maid, it literally was defined as someone who did a service or task for their lord or boss. It did not necessarily have sexual connotations. It was just meant as maid who did her job. However, the use of slut when referring to a female prostitute is where we get the meaning for slut today. Todays meaning for slut originated from that, but has also changed into not meaning 'paid sexual behaviour' but into a very loose and generalised 'sexual behaviour'. That means any female who demonstrates any sexual behaviour can be called a slut in the 21st century.

The definition is very generalised. 
When I say the word slut, I get the idea of someone thats showing a lot of skin, sleeps around with different men every night and uses her feminine features to get things from other people. However, you probably have a very different idea of what a slut is. I know some people believe certain dress styles are 'slutty' and high heel shoes often are called 'slutty' as well. You see, the definition for a slut is so general, it can cover almost anything. You could even be called a slut for wearing a bright colour . Because we all have a different idea of what defines the world slut. If this word can be used to degrade you simply for wearing a pair of shoes, do you really think you should allow it to hurt you? What other people think does not matter, and how they define it does not need to affect you. It shows you more how messed up they are to think that being a slut is simply an item of clothing or a confidence in the way you walk. They are the ones with a problem, it is not you.

There is no such thing as a sexually loose man- apparently. 
Did you know that in the 21st century, we have no male version of the word 'slut'? Slut is always used to refer to a woman. But there is no word that describes a sexually loose man. Even similar words such as hoe only have a female connotation. The only word to have no gender attached is 'prostitute'. Interestingly, society says that females are sluts if they are too sexual. Women are demeaned if they dress in a certain way, act too confident or have a healthy sex life. Yet, society says that if a man is not highly sexual, then he is not a real man. Men are told that something is wrong with them if they do not act like- well, like sluts.  So women are told they are sluts, and men are told to be real men. Does that sound right to you? Does that sound like gender equality?

So next time your called a slut. Laugh with them. Because the true facts are, society is has created this generalised, female only, degrading word to explain any type of sexual activity. You are an empowered female walking free of these labels, because they are not who you are. Don't let any male or female call you this, because it has never been true. Hold your head high, and laugh at them. Because they have got it so wrong.
