Who's the hoe?

What is a hoe? Should someone be determined to be a hoe based off of how many people they have slept with? or the attitude about sexual intercourse? Is the term hoe only for one gender?Is there a cap on how many people a respectable woman should sleep with?
Here is my take on it. There is not one concise definition that has determined whether or not a person is a hoe. Some people base it on how many people a person has slept with or even what their attitude is about the number of people they sleep with, or how they "advertise" their sexual life. What seems to be consistent is the person has to have slept with someone.
Why does it matter how many people another person has been with? As long as before you decide to have sex you find out the other person sexual health (previous and current diseases) and are not passing something along why does it matter? When a man has sex with a woman his and her number increases. Everyone has had a life or history before they met you and at this day and age a sexual history unless the person is a virgin. A person's sexual history really only concerns you when you are apart of their history and when they have or had STD's. A person's history does not have to become your present.
A man or woman can become a hoe when all they want from someone is sex and they no longer care who they sleep with. They are looking for something other than sexual gratification i.e. money, material things. It's based off of how they carry themselves...with or without respect. Just because some people in society says a man and go around and have sex with whomever whenever, does not mean that he is not a hoe. A spade is spade in English just as it is in French. The sex does not change the classification.

When it comes to having sex remember to stay protected. Get tested regularly and if you are involved with someone get tested together...it helps alot. If you are not prepared to be a mother or father make sure you both people are protecting themselves. Nothing wrong with back up.
