Legend has it that "sluts" are lurking all around. You might encounter one on a shadowy street corner or posing in a magazine. But those tricksters also blend in easily at school, at church functions, and even in your own home. Constant vigilance is required. Without it, you might accidentally become one yourself. Except... there's no such thing as a "slut." It's just a myth. So is the "slut's" invented opposite, the "good girl." What's the deal with these lingering stereotypes and around female sexuality? Why do they still bear so much control over our cultural and personal expectations? These chapters are collected/edited from my Teen Vogue column. I want to share them with you here, where we can discuss them together, because the Wattpad community was so crucial to establishing The UnSlut Project as an international movement. I hope your comments on these essays will grow into conversations, and that we can keep inspiring and learning from each other!

'The Angel'. A feared assassin who earned his name by painting a beautiful pair of angels wings at every kill site. And also because no-one can say he even exists. The only traces he leaves that shows he's on this planet, are corpses. No-one knows where he lives or who he works for. But what they do know is that he's one fucked up person. The Government. Everyone knows the government and the government knows everybody. Well, that's what they think. The government thinks they've got 'The Angel' all worked out. Okay, they hope they've got him all worked out, even though they have no idea what he looks like, or even what his name is. But one thing they do know, is that they want him. Not that they even know it's a him.
