what's expecially weird is the tortured way the word "whore" is used, particularly on this forum. there is constant encouragement from the male posters here to the female posters to engage in more and more extreme and specialized sex acts, and, for those female posters who are not performers to simply post pictures of themselves naked and such. to "embrace your inner whore", or whatever. any admission of freakiness earns female posters instant credibility as "real" whores. ms. lynch has been chided on more than one occasion for being a tease, or a "wannabe whore". her biggest endorsement came from mr. steward informing us all that he was wrong about her, and the posting of a picture that suggested whorish behavior. it's difficult to feel too much sympathy for ms. lynch in this regard, as she actively courts these reactions, but still. this constant pressure to "be a real whore" is very perplexing, given all the attendant baggage placed on the whore. in contrast, the suggestion that a male poster is a faggot is only greeted with one reaction. being a faggot, on this board, is a bad thing to be. no one is making posts encouraging a male poster to push his limits and take it in the ass from another dude, and then says eewwwww, you a faggot. perhaps there is some distinction i am unaware of between engaging in whorish behavior and being a whore? is it like "black people" and "niggers"? because it seems like the real double standard is that young ladies are expected to act a certain way, pressured even, but then once they do they are immediately looked down on and subject to an ever growing list of unfair and nasty "rules", which serve as a kind of prism that we can all observe them through, roll our eyes, and laugh at how whores lie.
