You could be skanky and slutty, of course, but there's a difference: Skanks are the "trashy" people who don't smell good, don't brush their hair, look like they've been wearing the same jeans every day for a month. Sluts, on the other hand, are people who act, or sometimes just look, promiscuous. Now, skanks are usually from "the wrong side of town," and are generally not held to the same standards as other people concerning behavior and manners, because it is assumed that they don't know any better. They're the ones you see at Wal-Mart with no shoes on. Like, I said, you could be a skank and a slut at the same time, but the sluts tended to be from better-off families. Wow...I just realized how backwards my town probably looks from that description, but it's true.
I agree. Sluts are the better off of the two. Isn't that sad?

I always think of the Pat Benetar video "We are strong" or whoever that is singing that. THink of that and not having bathed - that's skanky.
