Words that sound dirtier than they are…

Todays word: Coverslut

In the 1600s, a coverslut was an apron women wore while out gardening or cooking to conceal signs of their dirty work. Slut didn’t have the pejorative or sexually explicit sense it does today, but it did refer to a slovenly appearance.
Words that sound dirtier then they are…

Todays word: Dick-pot

Dick-pot is a word from the 1700s referring to the earthenware pots people filled with hot embers or coals to warm their cold feet. So, little old ladies worn dick-pots under their petticoats to keep them warm 😂

I'm pretty sure there is no outer garment that could coverslut me enough!

Let's start with this canard.

Spinster may have been a purely descriptive term (as slut once just meant girl/woman, hence "coverslut" being an apron), but it never denoted a favorable status the way alewife did.

Because at a certain social level EVERY woman knew the basics of spinning.

Coverslut jumped out at me...
It just means "an outer garment."

So disappointed 😔
