That's a double standard in the worst way.
Why do you think thinking like this continues in this day and age?

Wow, I wasn't aware that was considered a swear. Alright, imagine it says "harlot" or something.

B/c women are supposed to be these virginial chaste little pieces of fine china, who put up with sex grudgingly and only do it to procreate. A woman with a healthy sex drive is a scary thing to a lot of people...

I believe that old ("outdated," if you prefer) social conceptions of gender roles, such as this one, are deeply rooted in the "gender roles" (for lack of a better term) that are assigned by nature. Logistically, an egg is much more valuable than a sperm because there are far fewer eggs than sperm. Also a woman can only propagate her genes roughly once every nine months whereas a man can spread his seed as quickly as it takes to move from one woman to the next. Therefore women can be thought of as sort of "cheapening" their sex cell in this way if they sleep around, while it is more socially acceptable for a man to spread his seed with seemingly reckless abandon.

My view of the term ho is a woman who gets paid for it or who uses her body to get certain things...be it influence, her own way, a job, or whatever...
Any man doing the same thing is no less of a ho. And all of us guys know that!! Most just will never say it out loud. :)
This crap continues today for the same reason that we still think we need to hold a door for a woman....its all outdated thinking thats in dire need of some new ideas.

From an evolutionary attitude, it really is more suitable proper for adult males to sleep round than for females people to sleep round. it really is valuable evolutionarily for a guy to sleep round because he can more suitable the species by skill of impregnating as many females people as he needs with little effect. women people, on the different hand, can purely be impregnated about once per 9 months, and then ought to look after the youngsters. i'm not preserving it really is ideal, yet it really is in basic terms the evolutionary attitude.

And woman being able to hit a man is a bigger double standard.The fact is,men and women are different.Different standards need to apply.A woman who chooses to sleep with multiple partners does so at her discretion.A man who sleeps with multiple partners is considered fortunate because ultimately it is the women who decide when and if sex takes place.If he is chosen,he is fortunate(stud) for he may not know when the opportunity will present itself again.A woman ultimately can decide to have as many partners as she chooses to have.Men do not have that option.Hence the difference.One among many between the sexes I might add.

Because we used to think that it was the mans job to spread his seed. A woman was considered a man's possession. I'm Not saying its right.

Why is it that when a man talks about sex he's a pig, but when a woman talks about sex she's "sexually liberated"?
But I agree with you. I hate double standards of any kind. We all do it to each other.

becuz women r expected to be the innocent good people becuz they have the kids, raise em, keep the house hold together, so basically not dirty becuz that's not what a wife should be like. but i think men who do all that stuff are h*o*e*s, and s*l*u*t*s, and w*h*o*r*e*s, etc. and guys are the ones who would call u a ho after u slept wit him becuz i don't know why! then girls r just to catty becuz they're the ones who call eachother those names the most when they're jealous

They are not. They're expressing there sexuality like anybody should. I think it's a old intrinsic belief about vaginal elasticity not restoring itself. Mostly brought about by silly religion, It holds all our real achievements back as a species...
