How is that offensive?
You are essentially calling all females sluts by changing the word "w'hore" to "lady". Yes or no, most females would think this?

"Every lady is a whôre" is what that is insinuating.

Ah!  Beat me to it, FMA!

Piotr

Lol no. You have some sick minds, people.

Piotr

If anything, it would be 'every .bore. is a lady'. This is just dumb.

Silent1236

...I don't follow. How does turning "whôre" into "lady" mean "lady=lady?"  That means "whôre=lady," no?

Kaworu, the Fifth Child

You miss the point. It doesn't matter if that's what it means, it matters how people take it.

Whôre's can be men. To change the word to lady insinuates they are the same thing

Ok this is the way I see it. You are trying to make this a pg-9. So to do that you are replacing one word for another. Yea it doesn't really mean the same with f-ck to love. But to some they take wh-r- to lady as you saying they are interchangeable. My suggestion is to change it to prostitute.  Some people take offense to it. Yes we can go back and forth about it but why not just change it to keep the masses happy.

Changed it to bore, fair enough?

Rass

Sounds fine to me. I didn't notice that translation so it really didn't effect me but will make some people happy so thanks. ( hope bore doesn't have another meaning I don't know of 😋😋).
