Okay. I admit that I've never had a hooker (escort) so I'm not up on the rates.
http://www.democraticunderground.com/?com=view_post&forum=1018&pid=317211

he is calling me a hooker.
JURY RESULTS
A randomly-selected Jury of DU members completed their review of this alert at Tue Feb 26, 2013, 10:23 PM, and voted 3-3 to LEAVE IT ALONE.
Juror #1 voted to HIDE IT and said: No explanation given
Juror #2 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE and said: No explanation given
Juror #3 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE and said: Err, are 'escorts' some other job?!?
Juror #4 voted to HIDE IT and said: This whole subthread is questionable but this post has to go.
Juror #5 voted to HIDE IT and said: He's not calling you a hooker. He's obviously misread or doesn't understand what you mean by "escort." But his nasty, inappropriate language still makes me want to hide this post.
Juror #6 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE and said: I couldn't see him calling anyone a hooker, sorry. But I thought the post was indeed imature.
Thank you.

I can only take comfort in believing while Gorp was attacking me, another DUer was spared.

Well, that's why the term "mansplain" is constantly given a pass by juries around here

There's not much purpose in alerting unless you just want to prove the double standard exists

right, if you don't say anything you have nothing to offer except snark and "harmful images"

Part of the reason I picked this particular username, is because I recognize that to some extent
