31. The word "WHORE" is not gender specific.
Edited on Sun Apr-15-07 06:11 PM by republicansarewhores
Sorry you think so. I've never written anything sexist here, if anyone is pro-female empowerment, it's me. Using the word "whore" does not make someone sexist.

There are male whores and female whores.

A whore in my book is someone who will forsake all morals, ethics and decency for themselves and money. Hence the profile name "republicansarewhores". I've referred to plenty of males in real life as "whores" for the way they screw people over for their own interests based on this definition.

If you are so sensitive to it, you might want to consider looking inward for the reason why instead of labelling me sexist.

I knew a person once who was very uncomfortable when I used the word "whore" to describe someone that fit my definition above, I could never understand her sensitivity to it. Later I found out she cheated on her husband and ran off with the guy she was cheating with. Maybe my using the word "whore" had more to do with her own personal issues related to herself then my saying it.

You might want to take your indignation regarding sexism anw women to a more appropriate thread, like this one: Poll question: Legalize Prostitution.

RAW
