"You a HOE!!"

[May(be)]

I was dressed and walking down the sidewalk late at night past a notorious LGBT bar in my neighborhood. I saw someone come from this bar and walk on the sidewalk next to me. She presented female, but I wasn't convinced so I was giving her a good, long look. She did the same to me. After she passed I got my answer about her likely-sex when I hear her say in a very feminine voice "You a HOE!"------- Wait? WHAT!? Did she just call me a hoe?!? HAHAHAHA!! That has literally NEVER happened in my life. I wasn't upset. I just thought it was really, really funny.

So I get to my destination and my friend tells me that my cami is hanging a little low and showing off my fake boob stuffing stuff. Maybe I AM a hoe?

I wish there was a question attached to this post because it would allow more people the option to respond. I'm not expecting much in the way of response from this story. I just thought it would be fun to share.

Only a *****/HOE would consider this some kind of "compliment".....
Sweet Jesus,

[Megan Briana]

IF that makes you a hoe, then I am a hoe too! Accidents happen and if something slips, oh well. I am constantly checking my mirror and nearly everytime i have to adjust, touch up, or redo something. lol price i pay to look as good as i can, i guess.

Sweet Jesus,

Wait, did I give the impression that I thought this was a compliment? It definitely wasn't, I just didn't let it bother me because I don't have the frame of mind that would allow that word to have any power over me.

Maybe I'm being too defensive and your post, Momarie, wasn't directed at me. I am not sure from reading it who you are exasperated with.

I imagine what she meant was: "Are you A Sista' Hoe?" With a bit more education, it might have come out as: "Are you a Transgendered Sex Worker, much like myself?"

But, not everybody is P.C.! Be happy, she could have attacked if she decided you were working on Her Block.

Peace and Love, Joanie

That sounds like a pickup line to me.

[EllenJo]

Well in order to be a "hoe" you have to pass as a female so maybe it is something of a backhanded compliment. Who knows?

I like Joanie's explanation, I think she got it right...still funny.

translation:

hoe=wh****,escort,prostitute,street walker or sex worker

or it could be that she was saying we are sisters in the sex worker business

Not to change the subject too much. What is notorious about that particular LGBT bar? That may answer the question.

[Davena Doll]

There is a question attached to this post. Are you a hoe....?. Well are you?

[Ava Tryptyk]

I'd probably laugh too if I were called that. It's good that you didn't get upset.

Over here a hoe is a tool used in gardening. Perhaps she had a garden that needed some work lol

A Hoe, no I am a garden rake.

I'm waiting for the day when I pass two GGs and one says to the other "skinny bit*h". That's when I know I'm in the passing lane....

Right now, I'm happy with a "thank you ma'am" at the cash register....

Renne.....

I would have said "...and?", "so?", " that's your opinion.", "you're point?" or "thank you!" :battingeyelashes::)

[Bree-asaurus]

Well, I at first thought she could have just been saying it jokingly... because you are both trannies.

Then I re-read your post and you say you gave her a "good long look" because you didn't think she passed. Maybe she saw you eyeballing her and being judgmental in your stare and called you a hoe because you were being extremely rude.

If I had been asked if I was a hoe, I'd just say yes I am. Not that I am, but would just agree to it. I wouldn't be offended at all. My wife even calls me a hoe and sl*t, and a b***h. Doesn't bother me at all. But a stranger, presenting as a woman and myself presenting the same, no offense would I take.
