名詞

thot (複数形 thots)

1. (US, derogatory slang) A slut, a woman who is sexually promiscuous.
   • 2014 June 23, Amanda Marcotte, “Let's Put an End to 'THOT': The Misogynistic Phrase That's Sweeping the Nation”, in The Daily Beast:

     ...the appearance of the word “thot” in the whole mess shows how much it’s morphed into the same kind of word as “slut”—a catch-all way to put any woman in her place by suggesting that she’s somehow too sexual. But, of course, it’s a game women can’t win, because if you’re not obviously sexual enough to be called a “thot,” then you’re simply going to be disparaged for failing to be sexy enough.

   • 2017 May 8, Roy Wood Jr., “State of Black Shit”, in The Daily Show:

     That's why we're counting on you, Black Twitter, to continue the innovations in the field of slang. Never has black slang been appropriated so quickly. The other day, I heard two middle-aged white dudes calling each other thots. That word is gone.
