Slutever

Dispatches from a Sexually Autonomous Woman in a Post-Shame World

By: Karley Sciortino

Narrated by: Karley Sciortino

Slutever is a call-to-arms, a confessional memoir, and a slut manifesto—and it's all thanks to a sex-radical hedonist in a pink PVC mini dress.

"Slut" is a great word. It just sounds perfect-so sharp and clear and beautiful. It's one of those satisfying four letter words, like cunt and fuck. Slut also happens to be an anagram for lust, which is one of those divine coincidences that makes you wonder if God actually exists.

We're lucky that slut is such a great word, because it's safe to say that almost every woman will be called a slut at least once in her lifetime. Despite a slowly shifting sexual double standard, it's still taboo to be a woman who's openly sexual-let alone one who sleeps around. Now Vogue columnist Karley Sciortino is on a mission to reclaim the word "slut" to represent a person who seeks out visceral experiences through sex, and who isn't ashamed about it. Sluts are special. Sluts are radical. And sluts are skilled at time management, because they can handle multiple partners on rotation, plus their jobs and their blogs and their beauty routines. Not everyone is qualified for this coveted position.

Slutever is a thoughtful, first-person account of a modern woman, navigating sex, love, casual hookups, open relationships,, bisexuality, BDSM, breakups, sex work, sex parties, and the power of sexual agency, as told from the front lines.

Critic reviews

"Slutever is a funny, surprising, and ultimately enlightening book. Karley Sciortino is a natural-born killer of outmoded ways of thinking about love, sex, and personal agency. Generation slut has found a thoughtful, articulate voice."
— Christopher Ryan, Ph.D. (Co-author of Sex at Dawn: How We Mate, Why We Stray,and What It Means for Modern Relationships)

"Karley is the mad aunt every proto-slut should have. Hilarious *and* informative. I genuinely wish I'd had this book when I was a teen. I suspect it would have helped me make sense of the world and myself a lot faster."
— Stoya, pornographer

Most Extraordinary :Honest and Insightful.

Do you need a sexual philosophy covering the sexual landscape? This book will change your life while covering all the bases. Jealousy, possessiveness, BDSM, monogamy and other isms too. This book should be part of the ciriculum of one's life. Enough gushing. Please enjoy.

What about Karley Sciortino’s performance did you like?

I was really interested in Karley's story and each life moment she mentioned beckoned me to want to know more and more.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

Overall her confident and curious personality.

Any additional comments?

I was so taken by Karley's story I gave this 5 stars. I not in her age bracket and was a bit distracted by the the upward question asking tone during a lot of her reading but, I still loved this book. Would love to see more SLUTEVER books in the next 3 or 5 years. Shameless promote on her television here -- love that also. You rock Karley!

interesting and entertaining

loved the fact that it says what most people won't. truthfully and honest just and amazing book listened to it over and over

it me.

I've never felt more connected with an author. I definitely went through it very fast.

Fun Romp of a Read that Doesn't Boast Perfection

I had fun reading this book, I liked how Karley speaks so candidly about her life. I don't agree with all of her opinions, but she doesn't claim to be an authority, just someone who enjoys living her (sex) life on her on terms. Narration is well executed.
