You throw around the word "skank" as if it were the most vile epithet in the English language.

The accepted definition of this word-in adjectival form-according to Webster's New World College Dictionary is:

[slang] sleazy, offensive, disreputable, etc. in appearance or character.

Now, I have no problem slamming someone because of a deficiency of character-which appears to be the case with this woman-but I think that it's pretty reprehensible to launch a personal attack against someone based solely upon their appearance.

I am REPEATING the title of this article, brainiac. Maybe you should read it. I will call her exactly what I think she is, a SLUT (without your permission, no less)!
