Why else would they bare their booty in -20C weather other than a call for male attention to look at their "assets" (lol pun)? What would YOU call someone like that? Attention-whore? Sure, I'm fine with that term too. A lot is assumed by first impressions even if they're not always right. I'm just generalizing, I wasn't being necessarily sexist.
Would you don a bathing suit for the office? I doubt it. Some things are just inappropriate.. like shortshorts in freezing-cold weather.
I agree with you that they're attention whores, although to me that's still not the same as a slut. Sluts are loose women. Attention whores are just as likely to be teases; they want you to look, but then they act all offended because you've reduced them to physical attributes. Classic strategy, impossible to defeat. But that's all just my definitions.
My issue was the apparent contradiction of you generalizing about women in a sexist way (whether you say so or not), but in the same breath complaining about the chauvinism around here. You're also correct about that, and I'll admit I'm one of the main culprits, but it seems pretty hypocritical to complain about it immediately after demonstrating it yourself.
