social, religious?
-Do you know this lady?
-Yes, she is no lady, she is the French Lieutenant's whore..!
[from the movie: "The French Lieutenant's Woman"]
Why is it that when a woman yeilds to her desires, she is called a whore and a man not?
*just an ancient habit?
*manhood threaten?
*social habits breach?
*she makes other women subconsciously jealous?
*religious thing..?

Social and religious...
I tend to say: ALL OF THE ABOVE unfortunately.
social and religious domination of the man. this had led to a traditional notion of what a woman should be. if they're not supposed to have the same political power or power as general, they sure as hell are not supposed to have the same 'sexual power'. man's moral are kept high in our societies, the 'all men club' societies and this allows the room for all the different ways of control for men through all the guidelines and the taboos.
funny that it made it to the news earlier this week that an old woman, a teacher was fired from her job as a sunday school teacher at a church at 30 years, because they suddenly decided that a woman's voice should not outspeak or teach a man, as they claim the bible says.. in new york!
