I somehow doubt you mean that literally, as there is nothing negative about this honorable profession.  Perhaps you mean something else.. some other related malign of the gender.  In any case your crude statement tells us much more about you than about the ladies in question.  And it is not to your credit, I might add.

^^^ You are right.

I think the Merriam-Webster definition of "whore" is simply "girl who has sex with someone who is not me."

Oddly enough, my definition is 'someone who will have sex with me', though I have to say I don't think I've ever used that word in my life.

I think the last part of the sentence proves my point...

Every generation is f**cked...they all pass away.  Plus, every generation starts off idealistic, distracted and flesh-driven, grows up cynical and suspicious, lives an adult life trying to survive and provide for a few other people around them, ages cynical and suspicious, and passes on trying to appreciate every last drop they have left.  When any generation comes along that isn't like this, wake me--I'll be sure to watch.

Yeah. I would go with that. 1999 was probably the best year for the United States, on the whole.

You sell me short and cut me the core, friend. Prostititution is not just the oldest profession but one of the most honest!

First, I do mean literally that many journalism students I knew in college indeed sold themselves for cash. Do you think I would have used that term in jest? I found their industrious use of their skills to be a credit to themselves.

Additionally, I would have no problem with the fact that they acted in such a way if that was their chosen field. If they majored in the prostitution arts I would applaud their prowess. However, rather than follow what they were good at and could profit from they entered the career path of journalism. My issue is not with their gender, narrow minded man, but instead with the fact that they did not follow the path that would have allowed them to make the most money and to help the most people.

Sorry about that!  In future to avoid confusion be careful of that world (the W word).  It cannot be helped that it insults some of my favorite people.  Nonetheless, even if you were merely referring to feminine promiscuity, I would object.  But I shall jump to no more conclusions..

LOL, "Pope Benedict Arnold XVI"...

Is marijuana already decriminalized in Topeka or something?
