A and I use "slutty slutty whore" as pretty much a meaningless connotation. Based upon the charged responses above I'd say people really take that completely at face value. I really get tired of folks constantly picking and choosing when statements are evaluated literally or not. If we're all going to shoot for making impeccable statements 100% of the time that is fine. But I think that it takes a lot more time to truly think before speaking. I don't believe people are accostumed to that sort of scrutiny in their language structure. With writing it's easier. We can go back numerous times looking over and over again while analyzing.
"Skank" is uncalled for in my personal view. I'm not sure I could say that one without a negative connotation.
And all of these depend on context, the setting in which they are used, vocal tonality and facial expression. None of which transfers over into LJ so it's impossible for the folks above to get a good vibe for the situation.
However, as always in life...if you are offended by something and it hurts your feelings I think you should speak up. :)
