(1,250 posts)So you don't like the specific terminology of Pimp vs. Ho.
But you don't blink when someone says Employer vs. Employee, Boss vs. Worker, Parent vs. Child, Master vs. Servant, King vs. Subject.
It's all the same thing.
The One In Control vs. The One Being Controlled.
THAT'S what that means.
These are terms for the power dynamics within relationships.
When Mom & Dad say "Clean that room!" what do the children do?
They CLEAN THAT ROOM, don't they?
If the children don't, then the parents punish the children with consequences.
If your kids talk back to you, redqueen, what do you do?
You show 'em who's boss, don't you?
You take away a toy, you put them in time out, you give them a spanking, you ground them.
If you don't, then your kids run over you in the house.
THEY become the boss & that's how you get bratty kids.
At work, you do what the boss tells you or you get fired from that workplace.
In a country with a king or queen, you bow your head to that royal or there will be consequences.
Go to the United Kingdom & disrespect Queen Elizabeth II to her face & see what happens.
You don't have to use the specific terminology of Pimp vs. Ho.
But the power dynamic of the relationship is the same.
The One In Control vs. the One Being Controlled.
And yes, Parents are in control, are in charge of their Children.
