Why do people like calling other people "whore" and "slut" so much?

Asked by DominicX (28808points) October 8th, 2009

It seems like these are some of the most common insults (for women) that I see. Got someone you don’t like? Guess what, she’s a SLUT.

One reason I don’t like these words is because they only apply to women and thus are quite sexist especially since men can be promiscuous and “slutty” as well.

Why do you think these terms get thrown around so much?
