i made my first wikipedia edit

was looking up married with children and read this:

Kelly Bundy (Christina Applegate) – The older child of the Bundy clan; a stereotypical dumb blonde who is often derided as a slut and dates men who get under Al’s skin to the point of him physically assaulting them.

and changed it to:

Kelly Bundy (Christina Applegate) – The older child of the Bundy clan; a stereotypical dumb blonde who is often derided as promiscuous and dates men who get under Al’s skin to the point of him physically assaulting them.

because pejorative words like that don’t belong in neutral writing!

see also: loaded language; contentious labels; labelling
