second!anon-- thank you very much for clarifying. That's exactly where I was going with this.
It is absolutely unfair to refer to Poland as Slut-- I wouldn't do it, you wouldn't do it, 95% of the fandom wouldn't do it (maybe that's an optimistic number-- I do see a lot of "and then Poland fucked Prussia/Russia/Switzerland/the neighbor's cat for no reason except that I the author think dudes in skirts are hot" fics). Poland's not a slut-- I never portray him that way in fic. Prussia's reasons are complicated; for one thing, we forget it about him, but he's actually a very conservative country. I think the cross-dressing bothers him. For another, at least in this fic-- Poland took his virginity, in a not-particularly-kind way (he wouldn't say it was rape, and neither would Prussia-- mostly that's a pride thing-- but there was definitely some dubious consent there. To tell me that you don't think Poland would rape someone, go to the thread above this; that seems to be the location of choice for the "hetalia characters wouldn't rape other characters; it's OOC!" discussion. Please note that was not really supposed to be snarky). So, the fact that the insult that Prussia chooses for Poland-- and he really did just have to choose one; you'll notice that France is Bitch (again, we can speculate on where that epithet comes from), America is Brat, England is Douchebag...-- the fact that he choose a sexual insult for Poland is related to that, I think.
DA, I'm totally with you! Free love and happy orgies and expression our love for each other in a physical way, go!
