Meanings
- uncountableThe process of coming to regard somebody as a whore, or as sexually promiscuous.
At the heart of the whorification of women lies an uneasy recognition: that sexually woman is a potent, living and breathing figure. She is powerful in that she can function as a catalyst of male desire and sinful aggression.
2013, Jason D. Hill, Civil Disobedience and the Politics of Identity, page 66
