although the slut comment brought back horrible memories of how I once tried to explain the difference between a slut and a whore to two very close friends.

The answer is neither, you are neither one bmus, and except for humor among your own friends gawd help anyone who says you are. During my moment of genius both friends were not believers in anything except my own bad behavior, and thus gracious enough to forgive.
