Probable origin is whoremonger, described in www.thefreedictionary.com as..

whoremaster, john, trick

customer, client - someone who pays for goods or services.

We as a GENTLEMEN community shorten it to MONGER !!!

And it's not a "CRT" thing. The phrase is used world-wide.

And no it's not a glorious or flowery phrase, but it's nonetheless used self deprecatingly and in good humor.

But the most common and specific term associated for those who purchase sex for money is translated the same in all languages. That term is "man".

I like how the brothers to the north in British Columbia, Canada describe themselves: Pooners. Simple and elegant :D I brought it up a couple of times over the years but it didn’t seem to catch on.

Q: What is the longest sentence in the English language?

A: I Do!

I thought the word monger or whoremonger was in the bible but apparently not, a couple online searches turned up nothing as well as on some word origin sites. :?
Another term from Prolijo's site: whorticulturist


Main Entry: whor·ti·cul·ture
Pronunciation: 'hor-ti-kul-chr'
Function: noun
Definition: The exploration, study, discovery and enjoyment of foreign cultures and peoples and particularly the cultivation of intimate social/sexual/commercial ties with its women.

The "plowing" of the "fertile fields" of womanhood.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Etymology: A homonym or a "play on words" of the term horticulture. A combination of the words "whore" + "culture". The word "Whore" itself has some offensive contemporary connotations but it derives from the Old English hōre and ultimately from an Indo-European base meaning “to desire” that is also the ancestor of the english words cherish & caress, which is not so bad if you think about it. The word "Culture" derives from the Latin cultura meaning "tillage" and later from the p.p. stem of the Middle French colere meaning “to till, tend, guard, cultivate or worship.” Those original roots make the term seem more relevant to horticulture than to what we currently think of as culture. The meanings "the intellectual side of civilization" or "collective customs and achievements of a people" didn't come about until the 1800's. And the current usage of "Whorticulture" is only now becoming more widely known and used.

The only difference in women world wide is their payment plans.
Some men called "husbands" are on the lifetime payment plan and offer their women lifetime benefits.

I like the plan offered in CR, "cash and carry"
I don't like to think of the girls as whores, they give a much better service than a typical whore and usually very much better than what you get when closing a deal on the lifetime plan. If you said "I DO" you are on the lifetime plan.



Bravo!! :lol:
