It used to be. Politeness is a social construct and changes over time. I could name all sorts of horrible things that used to be polite. And even today it’s polite to casually talk about paying for a dead body to be cooked at a restaurant.
Although the ultimate origin of the word slut is unknown, it first appeared in Middle English in 1402 as slutte (AHD), with the meaning of ‘dirty, untidy, or slovenly woman’.
The fuck are you talking about? It was always used as an insult. Just because more people were willing to call people slits doesn’t mean it was actually acceptable in actual polite company.
But that’s not polite in my book…

It’s never been polite. Not sure what you mean.
I miss the old times. Not because of horrible things that are normalized now, but because we had believable bait back then

What horrible thing used to be polite? Kindly telling someone they’re a slut?
