This article provides a scoping review of the literature on slut-shaming and
gender-based cyberbullying on social media, aiming to provide a comprehensive
understanding of the research in this area. The review covers articles published
between 2013 and 2022. This article first provides a definition of slut-shaming and its
brief history, then outlines the search methods used to identify relevant studies and
presents the results of the scoping review. The results show that slut-shaming and
gender-based cyberbullying on social media is a widespread and harmful phenomenon, and that the frequent occurrence of slut-shaming on social media is mainly due to the
existence of sexual double standards and gender inequality perceptions, as well as the
unregulated and anonymous nature of social media. Moreover, the review reveals the
groups of women who are easy targets for slut-shaming on social media, the impact of
slut-shaming and possible solutions.
