This is also probably true for a lot of men and guys on this forum as well.
They focus so much on pursuing sex for the reasons you’ve listed instead of attaining it as a byproduct of working on and improving themselves, for themselves.
Just an observation, not saying that it’s a bad thing necessarily.
Ok I’ll try and elaborate. What I mean by “openly promiscuous” is public behaviour, in a setting such as a bar(but anywhere really), where a girl gives off the impression that she is easy to sleep with. Parties and drinks a lot (especially if they are already dating someone), very touchy, flirting and/or making out with multiple guys at one venue in the same night, dressing for attention in minimal clothing, and whose response to all that would be “idgaf what other people think i’m having fun!” and is unapologetic and morally content with her behaviour. She could be a virgin and in my head I’d label her a “h0e”.
In contrast, the girl I dated with 10 partners had big boobs and an overall nice body but she NEVER showed cleavage nor dressed skimpy, never drank until she was drunk, is relatively shy around unfamiliar people and even came off as a prude when I first met her. She may have a high partner count to some people but I wouldn’t label her a “h0e”.
Now that you asked me to elaborate, I personally define a “slvt” and a “h0e” differently in my head when I think about it. To me, how I define a “h0e” is based more on publicly displayed lifestyle and behaviour, whereas I define a “slvt” based more on eagerness to sleep with new partners.
I’m not sure if you use the terminology interchangeably, but I learned writing this post I interpret them differently lol.
