So.... sarcasm is another concept you don't get...Sigh.
Are you starting to learn that being PW for whores offers no returns?.... Originally Posted by Whispers

Whore is as offensive as N***** (staff edit; ztonk) and everyone knows it; there's no grey area. If you use it, you might as well be burning a cross in someone's yard. Except, the Ku wore sheets to hide their identity when they showed up; you keyboard assholes don't even have to show up to throw your shade.
Maybe you whore-callers think you sound like Gus and Woodrow, but this ain't Lonesome Dove. Unless you want to embody this line from Captain Call “I hate rude behavior in a man. I won’t tolerate it.”And those who tolerate it, maybe our line is “You know how it works, Jake. You ride with the outlaw, you die with the outlaw. Sorry, you crossed the line.” Originally Posted by 3daygetaway

Interestingly, this word seems to have split into several different meanings.
For the first, the word evolved into a younger Indo-European root karo which in turn led to Latin carus 'dear' and Old Irish cara 'friend.' From this we get English caress, charity, and cherish, all of which have (or can be have) very wholesome and endearing definitions.
The second path created another later Indo-European root, kamo, which eventually became Sanskrit kamah 'love' that we are all familiar with from the Kamasutra.
Finally, at least for this discussion, the third route is the one in which today's word developed.
From prehistoric Indo-European ka came proto-Germanic khoraz/horaz, the feminine form of which was khoron/horon. Eventually this became Middle Dutch hoere, Old High German huora, Old Norse hora, Gothic hors, and Old English hore.
As a side note, except for the Old English word which meant 'whore, prostitute, harlot,' the other cognates had the definition of an adulteress. Old English hore was in use prior to 1100 C.E. and continued on into Middle English.
It was not until 1535 that there is record of the spelling changing to whore, and as of yet there is not much evidence as to why the change occurred.
Today, it's just plain degrading in any social setting except for the small (during sex acts) window Kendal and other described.
My free speech opinion, it's doesn't apply today to this industry and is degrading in almost every context and case.
I also would think less of the individual who uses the word than who they are referring to.
However,
I also think less of the people who attack the individual, who may use the word, based on perceived weight or some physical trait to degrade him/her also. Originally Posted by Jack$lit

Being a respectful gentleman with plenty of P411 okays and any number of ECCIE references, I have no problem finding an attractive lady of my choice to W her P against my preferred areas for as long as I desire.
And it's not because they are whores. It's because they are enterprising young ladies with a preference for respectful gentlemen. Originally Posted by Dev Null

You are nothing special...... Just the trick who's money they are collecting.....

Good Luck dealing with reality when it catches up... Originally Posted by Whispers

Also, I'm too busy with civilian life to check in here every minute of every day, and my interest in the topic has waned. People who have no concept of respect are uninteresting to me. Originally Posted by Dev Null
