It's the way the word is used. The simple fact someone is trying to hurt me emotionally because of the decisions I make in my sex-life. THEY put the negative connotation on the word "whore".
Absolutely agree, and I didn't mean to criticize you. The person who calls someone a whore and intends it as an insult gives it the meaning of an insult, yes!
