Abstract:
This chapter presents the concept of "slut-shaming" with an analysis of the main problems that manifest around it. There is a broader discussion of Sexual Double Standards (SDS), which lie at the core of 'slut-shaming'. Using appropriate theories, the roots of SDS are interpreted and through research, the prevalence of SDS in contemporary societies is revealed. Furthermore, a special reference is made to "slut-shaming" within the Greek territory and the main problems concerning the understanding and use of the term in the Greek language are explained. Finally, the legal developments surrounding this concept are presented, with particular emphasis on highlighting the legal gap that exists.
