For those of you who have issue with the term "sorostitute," I can understand why you'd be bothered by it. But I've used the term before and can laugh it off when someone jokingly calls me one. It all depends on the context it's used in. When my guy friends calls me a "dirty sorostitute" or their "favorite sorostitute" there's no problem. I don't get upset with them for that because I know that they don't mean it in an offensive way. My best friend is the nicest girl in the world and I've even heard her use the term. If someone ever used the term in a way that was meant to be mean, then I'd probably be a little upset. It all depends on the context and who is using the word.
But I understand that it's an offensive term to some and not to others. All I can say to that is, last I checked everybody's offended by something and there's nothing out there that gives you the right to not be offended. So don't get so upset about it, it's not worth all this discussion.
And to add two more cents - I've used "guys" as a generic genderless group term my entire life. I've been informed that it's a New England thing (you guys, specifically) and no one's ever had a problem with it. I believe that I understand the point you're making, DSTCHAOS, but I personally think that you're taking it a little far since it seems that he's not quite getting it.
