Choose and explain.

Choice #2 is P0rnstar


By the way, i mean to ask the question if whether actually being a whore (in someone else's viewpoint) is more demeaning than actually being a slut. And then same goes for P0rnstars, etc. So which is worse to be, in your eyes.

I cry for hours whenever someone calls me a -blam!-.

What doesn't kill you, only makes you stranger

I can't objectively say. I've heard all those words so much that they don't really mean anything anymore.

If someone called me a pr0n star I would take it as a compliment.

"There's a very fine line between not listening, and not caring. I'd like to think that I walk that line every day."

Well, are all three referring to p0rnographic actors/actresses?

Even if not, in any case, I think "whore" - seems to have a more negative and insulting connotation, even when used inacurately.

If we disagree, it's nothing personal, opinions are opinions.
Antagonizing me to build a false sense of worth is so damn cute.

Brighten your day with science.

I updated the OP for some clarification on how to look at the question.

Well I'm pretty sure "whore" and "slut" are synonymous, with "whore" kind of being very solidly associated with "prostitute" and "slut" being associated with . . . whore . . . and flirtatious or whatever. Less strong of a word, I guess you could say?
"Whore" seems more "wench"y to me, archaic-like, you know.

So I kind of think they're both the same, really. And I guess you could argue the differences between prostitution and p0rnography, but again, I personally think it's just a grey area.

I think "whore" is sort of perceived as less "classy" than "p0rnstar", though.

Whore is the worse term. I'm not going to go into the explanation why, it's easy enough to figure out why.
