There has been a lot of talk about "sluts" and "prostitutes" (or "whores") of late. And some of you (cough*Rush Limbaugh*) may be confused as to what these terms actually mean.
So allow me to explain the difference between these terms (and women) as succinctly as possible.
A slut is someone who is willing to have sex with just about anyone.
A whore (or prostitute) is someone who is willing to have sex with just about anyone who can pay.
A bitch is someone who is willing to have sex with just about anyone, except Rush Limbaugh.
A witch is someone who marries the guy willing to pay her for sex (cough*Rush Limbaugh*) and then stops having sex with him after he puts a ring on it.
An asshole is a guy who repeatedly calls a woman a slut or a prostitute for advocating that all women should have access to contraception coverage -- and only, half-heartedly, apologizes when several of the sponsors of his radio show pull their ads.
I think that clears it up.
On a (somewhat) related note, while driving south on the West Side Highway in New York City the other day, I spied these two billboards, practically one after the other. While I get the latter message, would any of you care to enlighten me re the meaning of "Escort quality, hooker pricing"? And what's the deal with the sheep in the sombrero? (It's vodka, not tequila.)

I liked it a lot better when we were ruminating about the Wilpons mismanagement of the Mets....
Escort are supposed to be high-end arm candy (expensive). Hookers are street walkers (cheap).
As for the sheep...well...perhaps they are trying to appeal to cheap South of the Border types AND Christians/Purity? (The lamb is a symbol of gentleness of character and patience under suffering. It signifies purity, meekness and sacrifice. The lamb is also often borne as a symbol of Christ. The paschal or holy lamb is a lamb depicted carrying either crossed staffs, or a banner inscribed with the cross of St. George and a halo above its head. It is an emblem of faith. The holy lamb was granted to a brave, resolute spirit, who would even undertake war in Christ's cause.)
Either way, pretty bad ad to say the least! And insulting to women...shocker. ;)
Nothing captures the neo-puritan evangelical tension in America like an ad that combines sex, booze and religion.
Just wondering about the other ad. Why is it ok to joke about erectile dysfunction and not vaginal dryness?
Wait, there are billboards that cleverly make fun of vaginal dryness?
