skank
A skank can be defined in two different contexts. 1) In music, specifically reggae or ska, skanking is a form of dancing characterized by rhythmic stepping and arm movements. 2) In a derogatory context, it is a disrespectful term used to refer an individual, often a woman, who is perceived as promiscuous or of low morals. It's important to note the second definition is often used to insult or demean, hence should be used judiciously or avoided completely.
