To be fair, Meg has always been Mistress of the Single Entendre since her reveal as a demon, so it's not quite as unfounded as pasting the "slut" label on someone like, say, Jo or Madison from "Heart" for having a mutual attraction with the Winchester of one's choice. Though a diversionary kiss while pickpocketing someone wouldn't be the best example to zero in on.

Well, the difference between Madison and Meg is that we know Madison had sex.

I laugh at all these people railing at Meg's slutty ways, where really, her sum total of sexual anything is talking dirty. Oh, big whorish tramp.

I'm not one of the people sensitive to the word bitch--I'd cheerily throw that in her direction. But in the contexts where I've seen slut and whore thrown at her it was pretty clear it was in a "get your hands off my OTP" sexual slur way.

Well, the difference between Madison and Meg is that we know Madison had sex.

Didn't Meg's actual ghost (the girl, not the demon) talk about the things she endured while the demon was in her meatsuit. I thought sex was specifically cited. But I am way unmotivated to go find a script.

Beyond all the kerfuffle brought about by the kiss and the porn watching, and the plot machinations to bring that about, I wonder if this was a one-off within canon, and whether this is setting the stage for further canon exploration of Cas' humanity/sexuality, or if it was just for the titter factor this one time. Because part of me wants to see that explored like it really wasn't in season 5, but the other part of me is saying that they had their chance and missed it, and anything else is a retread.

I also had a random thought the other day that newly almost-human Cas catching the bus to cut off Pestilence's finger wouldn't have had nice clean clothing to be wearing when he showed up. That they missed the boat on getting him a temporary wardrobe change, and that they could have gotten mileage out of "holy shit, The End/2014!Cas is getting nigher, see how he falls!"

I thought sex was specifically cited.

No, Meg doesn't say anything about any sex in that body. She says she was dressed like a slut...but that must have happened offscreen, because we didn't see any of that.

I like the idea of Cas exploring sexuality as an angel better than as a fallen angel, but no skin off my nose if they never go there again.

Song for a Cas vid: Placebo's "One of a Kind"

On top of the world you get nothing done

Talk is cold and burns like the sun

Can't you see these skies are breaking?

Cause the top of the world is where I'm from

The back of the class is where I was

Keeping quiet, playing dumb

Can't you see these skies are breaking?

Cause the back of the class is where I'm from

I am one

I'm on a race and it's killing time

I don't need yours I'll keep it with mine

Can't you see these skies are breaking?

Cause I'm on a race and I'm doing fine

Thank you

Two of a kind and no one home

I'm in a crowd and i'm still alone

Can't you see these skies are breaking?

Cause one of a kind is all I own

She says she was dressed like a slut...but that must have happened offscreen, because we didn't see any of that.

Well we did see the demon dressing her in a far more provocative manner than Meg herself dressed in Are You There God. Different hair and makeup styles too. So we were shown the "slut" dressing.

But I am only sure she mentions being awake during the horrors, not that sex was specifically involved.

a far more provocative manner than Meg herself dressed

?? She's got lace at her neckline in Scarecrow, but she's in a longsleeved jacket, not-that-tight jeans and standard TV heeled boots. You can see Nikki's figure better in Are You There God than in most of her previous appearances.

??

Tight, red leather jacket reads as far more provocative than two layered cotton shirts. Short, bleached blonde and styled hair is a more sexed up look than the dirtier natural looking blonde that doesn't even look blown dry. Yeah, I think we were shown that.

Well, don't I feel like a tramp. Her attitude is much more sensual, etc, but her clothing? It's a fitted jacket--it's not a tight one. And when we see her again in Shadow, same thing. Fitted not tight.

Seriously? Slut? That's harsh. How do you characterise Bela's clothing, or Ellen's cleavage, or Jo's visible stomach?
