<p>Both of my roommates have girls visiting them to talk to them, give them hugs, etc.</p>
<p>Why don’t I got hoes knockin’ on my door?</p>
<p>Advice plz.</p>
<p>um, make more friends/hook up with more of them?</p>
<p>Because you call girls “hoes.” A girl can usually smell disrespect at 20 paces. Try making friends with some girls - and I mean friends, not “friends.”</p>
<p>I’m pretty good at the former, I have a lot of guy friends because I’m pretty chill and have a decent sense of humor.</p>
<p>Don’t care much about the latter because of ethical issues.</p>
<p>So you have ethical issues hooking up with girls, but you want hoes to visit you and give you hugs?
Am I missing something here?</p>
<p>Nah bro, I want to be friends with chicks that’s all. But each time I try to talk to them they seem disinterested.</p>
<p>And not all relationships are sexual.</p>
<p>You’re either too ugly or too boring.</p>
<p>yeah, i don’t associate with guys who call women “hoes.”
start there.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>People who make those statements deserve to be called hoes.</p>
<p>And when I referred to hoes in my original statement, I meant hoes in the colloquial slang context, not the misogynist/chauvinistic context.</p>
<p>ho = whore</p>
<p>it’s absolutely chauvinistic to refer to all women in general as whores, whether or not you’re simply glorifying rappers or whatever your excuse is.</p>

–noun
- harsh or bitter derision or irony.
- a sharply ironical taunt; sneering or cutting remark: a review full of sarcasms.</p>
<p>haha there are definitely ways to be clever with sarcasm.
calling all women prostitutes (while ironically wondering why you can’t meet them) isn’t one of them.</p>
<p>internet: serious business</p>
<p>Seriously though, unless you go to a really conservative or religious school, everybody calls female friends hoes in a non-serious joking manner.</p>
<p>which totally makes it okay…? do you often refer to african-americans with the n-word? because i mean, tons of people do it in a “non-serious joking manner.”</p>
<p>i actually go to a very liberal, public school, and i can guarantee you that many other people in our student body take issue with derogatory terms as well. </p>
<p>but this is a ridiculous discussion to be having with some random guy on the internet. i’m done. good luck with the hoes!</p>
<p>It all depends on the context nahimsayin’?</p>
<p>If Jack the Ripper called a woman a hoe, I’d be scared and disturbed.</p>
<p>If the Grand Dragon of the KKK said the n-word, I’d also be scared and disturbed.</p>
<p>But if girls jokingly call each other hoes and rappers use the n-word in their songs, I wouldn’t mind because it’s common, colloquial language.</p>
<p>"Nah bro, I want to be friends with chicks that’s all. But each time I try to talk to them they seem disinterested.</p>
<p>And not all relationships are sexual."</p>
<p>If they seem uninterested (not disinterested) then there is a simple solution: be interesting. Use your sense of humor, play games, and tease girls when talking to them. Just be fun to hang out with. And please stop trying to talk to them as you are likely blowing it up to be a huge deal in your head. What you will find out though is that it’s not that much fun to just be friends with chicks (at least no more so than with another guy) and they are often not worth the effort. </p>
<p>And people need to chill out about “hoes,” as it’s fairly colloquial.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>yeah some people on this thread are overreacting way too much.</p>
<p>
agreed. obviously the OP is in the wrong and shouldn’t have referred to girls as “hoes” but it is pretty clear that he was just kidding. he has already been castigated for it and i’m pretty sure he’ll be more cautious to not use the word again even in a joking manner.</p>
<p>anyways, quit saying that the reason why he is having girl problems is because he referred to girls as “hoes” in his post. i SERIOUSLY doubt that the OP is going around in real life and calling girls hoes to their face. again, he was just kidding so please just give the guy advice.</p>
<p>also, the OP was being insensitive when he referred to girls as “hoes” but now a lot of you are being insensitive to the fact that the OP is probably embarassed about this issue. what guy wouldn’t be? my bet is that the OP’s mechanism to cope with embarassing topics is to tell jokes which is not that uncommon.</p>
<p>No, I’m not really embarrassed at all. I don’t think hoe is necessarily a sexist word, guys get called hoes all the time. The word has been so exploited that rap that anyone who hears it doesn’t associate it with serious structural discrimination, but just stupid silliness.</p>
<p>Just as the word pimp doesn’t really mean anything when used in a certain context. It has no connotations of male dominance, just listen to Jay- Z when he said “ladies is pimps too, go and brush yo shoulders off.” Just as ladies can be pimps, guy can be hoes.</p>
<p>And to show that I’m not embarrassed from the word hoe, to everybody who is reading this post, you’s a hoe</p>
<p>Maybe you talk too much?</p>
