What is a 'whore'?

Maybe its because i'm currently a bit deprived of sleep at the moment but I felt the need to write about something a little controversial and opinionated...maybe the point where I might offend someone?..o well

SO what is a 'whore'? - well the normal response by a lot of people would be 'someone who has sex a lot' how do I know? well for the past few months Ive been asking people what they think a whore is and by the results Ive found, this is normally the case....However I have to disagree.

Sex is one of the last primal instincts we have left as evolved primates, to mate - why else do you find yourself in attraction to a man's/woman's physical attributes? because our bodies are telling us to mate a lot or at least some of the time. Now of course its not as simple anymore, as we've developed so has our psyche and our traditions and expectations of when and why sex happens.

A whore is not someone who has sex a lot because its perfectly healthy and most importantly natural to give into that need if you and the other person is comfortable with it.

A whore or 'slut' to me is someone who abuses sex for many reasons, ill make a list, just remember this is all personal opinoun:
  • Having sex with strangers without protection
  • having sex with someone's boyfriend/girlfriend
  • having sex with someone promising them commitment but instead lying
  • intoxicating someone with the intent to have sex with them
  • using sex for money or blackmail
There's definatly more but these were just some examples.
I decided to write this because I think the term 'whore' or 'slut' gets chucked around way too loosely. sex and other sexual....stuff is perfectly fine if it leaves no victims emotionally or physically.

I hope that if you were so judgmental of others because of this then you'll be a bit more easy going in the future!

peace and thanks!
