Pimps and Whores. Pimps. and. Whores.


Guy 1: "hey man what'd you do this weekend?"
Guy 2: "Shit you know, I went over to Lisa's house and she let me hit."
*High Five*
Guy 1: "Nice! Atta boy!"


Girl 1: "Hey girl! What'd you do Saturday night? I saw you leave the bar with Bill again."
Girl 2: "Yeah we went back to my place and well... you know."
*Screams, Hug*
Girl 1: "Oh my gosh girl finally!"

  
Random Person: "How many people have you guys been with?"
Guy 1: "Fifteen."
Random Person: "Nice! You're a pimp man!"
Girl 1: "Same here!"
*Disgusted looks*
Random Person and guy 1: "Slut!"


I would like to start by saying if anyone disagrees with me that these are typical conversations; go sit in the Smaug or somewhere on a college campus and listen to these conversations. I have been part of many myself. A lot of men honestly believe that the more women they sleep with the better and the more men a woman has slept with, the more of a slut she is. Also, men believe that men are more dateable the more women they have been with, and the exact opposite for women.


Is it true that the more women men have sex with the more other women want to date them? I feel the opposite about that statement but a couple of my guy friends think that it’s true. One of my guys friends said that the more women guys have been with makes them more experienced talking to women and that’s what makes them so smooth. He says that women don't care how many other women their man has been with. He also stated that women don't respect themselves if they get with multiple people but for guys it's okay because they get lonely.


As you can imagine I was shocked while sitting in this conversation and was a little offended. What makes this acceptable for men and not for women? It's not that I'm advocating for having many sexual partners but this still isn't a fair argument. To me, it is very unattractive when men have been with an abundance of women. The worst thing is when they are proud of it. A lot of it has to do with how they were raised but society is responsible for the majority of this argument. Male music artists sing or rap about how many women they've been with and what they do to them. On the other end of the spectrum, female music artists sing about love and their special somebody (with the exception of Nicki Minaj and a few select others).



The following link is a website in which men explain why “women are sluts” as if they have the right of deciding:

This link proved to be interesting to me. It is talking about the same concept that I did and gives a little more insight:
