When Did "Tips" (Gratuities) Become So High?

How 'bout just woman? Her actions, as you describe them, speak for themselves.
I think the English language is rich enough for you to express yourself better than that... I will join the chorus of DISLIKE! You sir, are no gentleman, even if she was no lady.
...unfortunately, I don't think a lot of young men care about being a gentleman these days. Sad.

^ That's true... 
Makes the decision much easier, right... I don't think any self-respecting, well-mannered woman hangs around with a man who regularly refers to women as "whores".
Even if she was all those things, do we need to concern ourselves with insulting her? Just lowers the tone to about gutter level. If you don't hold yourself to a higher standard of behaviour, then yes, anything goes.
For all we know, we could be insulting someone with mental health problems or god knows what... maybe off her head on drugs... perhaps she might deserve sympathy instead of name-calling.
Generally, even referring to sex workers as "whores" or "skanks", makes me uncomfortable. *Shrug* We never really know what makes people be who they are... perhaps a difficult childhood, low self esteem, introduced to drugs at a young age and dependent, coercion... and I don't think they are in need of being called "whores".
There by the grace of god go I... perhaps we may soon have reason to call Rojohen a "whore", because he has experienced a mental breakdown, or a series of events that removes his self-esteem... then he may have a closer acquaintance with the reality of such situations, and wouldn't bandy words like that around again so lightly.

Eh, I can't agree there.
Not just appearing in public naked. Appearing in public naked at 7am in front of 9-year olds who are waiting for the school bus.
Also, you guys are getting way too worked up about these words, especially since you are defending someone you have no knowledge of.
Well, how big of you to demean a woman who isn't here to defend herself, huh?
The way you talk about her is disgusting, no matter what you say she did.
Well, maybe next time you shouldn't call someone a whore.

I'm just irked that women didn't walk around our bus stop naked when I was 9 years old.
All we ever saw was that one hobo who used to flash our bus driver every week.

Fine. Since I can't confirm the exchange of money for her sex acts, I guess "whore" is inaccurate.
How about cheating slut? No, you probably don't like the word slut, either. She was married. She had kids. She slept with various delivery guys when her family was away at school and work.
I'm done defending myself. This woman sucked. Sorry if you can't handle it.
I don't care what she did, but I have no doubt that if it was a man doing this, you wouldn't call him a whore. You'd call him a bastard or something else that impugns his character without bringing his sexuality into it, and that's the whole point. From the sound of it, she was dishonest, unfaithful, and selfish. You can point that out without reducing her to misogynistic insults.Get it now?
GOOD DAY SIR.
I would absolutely call a man a whore if he was doing the same thing. I'd also call him a skank. These words, to me at least, are gender-neutral. A whore is a whore. I'm sorry if you don't like the word, but in some cases it is accurate.
I don't like the word "moist," but sometimes it's the most accurate word to use.

Those words are not gender-neutral to begin with. Sorry. And I don't believe you when you say you'd call a man a whore or skank.
