1. Inappropriate and it's phrased like a real article category. I just had to clean up someone adding this to one of our actual articles. If you want this sort of category to exist (which I would highly doubt, given that Slut is a derogatory moniker), name it something like "Slutty rationalwikians" or whatever. In it's current form, the category will only cause confusion. Inferno Bot can clean this mess up if it passes. Techpriest (talk) 19:15, 13 August 2021 (UTC)

   Ripe for abuse, even if it's intended to be self deprecatory. --It's-a me, LeftyGreenMario! 19:25, 13 August 2021 (UTC)

   Ahhhhh it’s been around nearly 10 years. Ripe for abuse? Please show me this abuse. Ace^{godfuckingdamnit} 22:59, 13 August 2021 (UTC)

   Yeah, everything on this wiki can be abused. That’s why it’s good that we have the revert button. Chef Moosolini’s Ristorante Italiano^{Make a Reservation} 02:23, 14 August 2021 (UTC)

   Don't like a category of a gendered insult that's traditionally used for misogyny, even if it's supposed to be self deprecating. Makes me uncomfortable it's tolerated here. --It's-a me, LeftyGreenMario! 16:18, 14 August 2021 (UTC)

   Back around the peak of the AIDS epidemic there was a group of sex-positive lesbians who gave safer sex education for the community.[1] They called themselves the Safer Sex Sluts. While, I am opposed to using slut as an epithet, people should be free to call themselves sluts if they want. Bongolian (talk) 19:05, 14 August 2021 (UTC)

   Sure that's completely fine but do we need a category? What if, say, n word was a self deprecating category? --It's-a me, LeftyGreenMario! 20:07, 14 August 2021 (UTC)

   Oh fuck off LGM. The N word isn't a category and never would be allowed. This is a fucking category that has been around for years and now you are all pissed off about it? "Ripe for abuse"? It's been around from the start of RW (at least in the first couple years) and not fucking once has it been abused. Stop being such an officious wanker. Guess what, my old friend, just because you're a member of a website community doesn't mean it has to conform to your needs exclusively. I have been told many times on RW that this is the way it is so "fuck you Ace". And yeah I bitch sometimes but don't expect my wishes to become policy. Go fuck off you watermelloned headed star-nosed mole faced piece of authoritarian Badger shit. Perhaps the internet isn't for you? Go down to the library rather. There you can left alone and read only what you want. Goddamn fucking hell. Stop being so precious - you ain't a first edition copy of On the Road. You're fucking LGM with no fucking evidence that this has been abused in any sense. Get off your fucking high horse man. That thing died months ago...Ace^{godfuckingdamnit} 00:42, 15 August 2021 (UTC)

   Please leave me alone, and do not engage with me any further from this point on. Thank you. --It's-a me, LeftyGreenMario! 00:01, 16 August 2021 (UTC)

2. It is kind of odd and open to misinterpretation. I wouldn't have nominated it, but if we are actually going through the process I'm more for delete than keep.Bob^{"Life is short and (insert adjective)"} 20:02, 14 August 2021 (UTC)

1. A jokey relic of the past that isn't worth removing, imo. Chef Moosolini’s Ristorante Italiano^{Make a Reservation} 19:38, 13 August 2021 (UTC)

3. - as a cunt and slut I say keep. Stop being such whinged wanks man. You can handle it and if you can’t then the internet probably isn’t for you. Ace^{godfuckingdamnit} 22:58, 13 August 2021 (UTC)
4. Obviously humorous and self-deprecating. 主要行事月 (talk) 01:31, 14 August 2021 (UTC)
5. Per the 4 votes above. ~Gale5050 (talk) 01:42, 14 August 2021 (UTC)
6. We don’t interfere with other people’s userspace without good reason, deleting an “inappropriate” joke category isn’t a good reason. Some people have started to take this website far too seriously. Christopher (talk) 17:31, 14 August 2021 (UTC)
7. This is a self-directed category so no harm. Bongolian (talk) 18:58, 14 August 2021 (UTC)

10. I'd support renaming it to "self-described sluts" --It's-a me, LeftyGreenMario! 20:40, 14 August 2021 (UTC)

    Invalid vote. Requires new section. Ace^{godfuckingdamnit} 00:49, 15 August 2021 (UTC)

    No. I don't mind it staying, but just stating most ideal turn out. --It's-a me, LeftyGreenMario! 23:59, 15 August 2021 (UTC)

11. There is really no reason to nuke a category that people choose to be in.𝔖𝔲𝔪𝔪𝔞 𝔄𝔱𝔥𝔢𝔬𝔩𝔬𝔤𝔦𝔠𝔞 (𝔮𝔲𝔢𝔯𝔢𝔩𝔦𝔰) (𝔰𝔠𝔯𝔦𝔭𝔱𝔲𝔯𝔞) 21:20, 14 August 2021 (UTC)
