|  | In 1994 I 
          decided that it was time to reclaim a domain name before it ended up 
          as a porn site. I wanted to register slut.com. Unfortunately six hours 
          before I submitted my application to internic, a porn site applied for 
          it. Back to the drawing board, so eventually I came up with the name 
          trollop.com. I think it is important that women don't let the world 
          decide that the individuality and assertiveness of a woman be interpreted 
          as a negative thing. Trollop is a woman of ill repute. In Victorian 
          times this might have only meant that a woman's skirt was cut too short 
          or she accidentally showed a bit of ankle, or perhaps she was an intellectual-always 
          held in high scrutiny. |
