What is your definition of a whore?

Question

Dictionary definitions of the word "whore" seem to run along the following line:

A Prostitute, a promiscuous person or a person considered to have compromised principles for personal gain.

If the above definitions hold true, what would you call a woman who has killed for an Armani or to gain personal benefits or advantages, even if she has not offered herself sexually for such purposes?

How much does the element of choice versus force enter into these definitions?

What do you think of the people who have intentionally cut off the options of some women, forcing them into the streets to stay alive?

Please respond with civilized answers and not head butts.

The last two questions pertain to males as well.

Answer 1

A whore is a woman who charges for what other women give away for free . Seriously, this would apply to a person of either sex and does involve personal gain. The woman in your first question would be a whore and a murderess.
In the second part of your discussion, you are describing a pimp/madam -one who forces someone to be a whore for the pimp's/madam's personal gain. A whore who had no choice and no assets except her body would have my sympathy--the person who forces another into that life only earns my disgust.

Answer 2

1) a murderer coz she killed someone.
2) there's always a better option then to be a prostitute.
3) those people ought to be caught by the police and brought to justice.

Answer 3

I heard of a conversation Winston Churchill had with a lady once. Winston asked her if she would sleep with him for a million pounds sterling. She said she probably would. Then he asked if she would sleep with him for one pence. She said, "Of course not. What do you think I am?". WC replied, "We've already established that. Now we're negotiating price."

Answer 4

Very simply... a whore is a woman (of any age) who sells her body for money(sells her body for sex, that is).. It is very simple
