As for your second claim, it may have some similarities. But you could say the same for french. For example, there's only one "the" in english. It's used for female, male and neutral. In German there are three: "Der" for male, "Die" for female" and "Das" for neutral, if you're talking about an object.
You probably could say the same for French but I don't speak French so that doesn't really help me
Oh and about Schlampe...Vosur calls me a dirty whore in English all the time I love it
