Actually, ill-informed, patriotic Englishman, I am Canadian.
And if 'whore' is family friendly, then I'd like to hear a list of words that aren't.
All I'm saying is that if this forum is family friendly, then it's not even an ARGUMENT as to whether whore should be used or not.
But should the forum be family friendly? I don't think that's necessary, but according to the people who made the decision, it is suppposed to be.
Would you say whore at the dinner table, or in school, or at work? No.
I'd like to hear a CD and GAB opinion on this...

Dinner table, the days of people siting around the dinner table where I live have long gone. Best chance of my family being in the same room is, well, a coincidence. Anyway, thats not the point.
Id use it instead of the word prostitute yeh, but not as a derogotary term. But then thats not what it is nick, it's a bit of fun.

And both of you I assume don't consider yourself kids? Well when you WERE kids, would it have been acceptable for you to say whore?
You guys are all missing the point here.
Familly friendly forum.
Don't argue to me that we don't need a family friendly forum, or that kids hear bad words.
That's not the point.
Try to convince me that the word 'whore' belongs in a family forum.

Is it really? I thought she said "post-holer", not "post-whore" (in the episode where the Doc and River get kidnapped). Because the tool is called a post-holer or a post-hole-digger.
(See this post at FireflyFans.net, specifically the one towards the bottom of the page.)

Yeah, I guess I'll have to decide this one...
As an adolescent (hehe, close enough to a kid), it's not appropriate to say whore in front of your parents, or other adults.
We still say it... but not in earshot of adults...

Just because you're older, smarter, stronger, more talented... doesn't mean you're BETTER.
