Am I really the first person to think of that?
No, you are not the first Hawgdawg in Atlanta always calls them that!
...I would never refer to my M&G's by that term.
It's not funny if it's hurts someones feelings...
But that's me...I'm kind of old fashioned and that's not a way to treat a lady.

Just like I often call myself a john. I don't find the terms to be offensive in a certain context.
...that's the problem with this form of communication - without hearing the spoken word it's hard to understand the intended context of the message especially if you do not know the person.
Admittedly I'm sensitive to any remarks that may offend a lady - chivalry is not dead but rather not practiced enough today.
Sorry if I overreacted.
Clone is cool, is a regular @ NYC events, and is well respected here. Enough said.
That happens to me all the time. I stopped posting for the most part due to that a long time ago. Now if I write something it's usually targeted towards those that know me,( & my perverted mind.)
Ahhhhhh Chivalry... I remember saying that this weekend while opening up the door for my client. I should of said,,,, sorry for walking faster than you it's a NY thing...
I think all the people who know me would agree that I have never called anyone a ho, nor have I ever made anyone feel like one.
Unless, of course, that was her preference.
Just because the outside world uses words derogatorily doesn't mean that we have to. As far as I know, there is no word that means "a woman who enjoys sex" that doesn't have a derogatory connotation.
I know several women who choose to take possession of such words. They call themselves slut's and ho's with pride.
They are all just words. My advice is to avoid giving them more power than they deserve, and look more to intent and context. That said, some people are sensitive about certain words, and sometimes we do inadvertently offend, so certainly it's wise to think before typing.
I don't believe any women took my comment offensively, but just in case, I do apologize.
Would the male guests at yours be Johns on the Spot?
A well known DC provider , years ago use to plan get togethers for the ladies. She refered to the events as "Hodowns". I think the babes loved it. However, it does seem insulting when the reference comes from a dude.
