View From Under the Streetlight

When I see a blog asking for help to find a story my heart skips a beat and I hope that the story they're looking for is one of mine.

Does that make me a whore?

When I post a new story, I have a personal standard for comments and kudos that I expect to meet.

Does that make me a harlot?

I love my stories and want them to be read and appreciated.

Does that make me a camp follower.

And . . . a much bigger question, maybe even HUGE. Why are all the synonyms for whore so dated? They all sound like something out of an 19th century novel.
