The word "ashewo" can never be a slur to me especially if it's coming from a man's mouth. Also a lot of women are also sex workers with a different name. I also think sex workers should be protected. Why do they keep getting shamed? There are people's that pay for their services. All of this boils down to misogyny.

Exactly ooo. It should never ever ever be an insult. More women need to understand that.

The truth is that as long as misogyny exists, every woman is an ashewo, as long as men cannot get thier hands on you, they try to hurt you with the slur. My advice to women is to reclaim the word, accepting that everybody is an ashewo at the end of the day will free you. If we can destigmatize that word, then we can be freer, and maybe we can help women who are prostitutes find some dignity in thier work.
