Remove "prostitute" as a considerate form of "call-girl"

[punkfairie]

Prostitute is not considered a polite term by sex workers. Sex workers may refer to themselves as prostitutes and there are certainly sex workers who don't care if others call them that but it shouldn't be used as a blanket term by non-sex workers.

Not sure if justification or sources are needed, I used to be a sex worker myself but I recognize that's impossible to prove without connecting identities I would rather stay separate, and one person isn't indicative of a community anyway. So I dug up some other opinions:

• Terminology Guide by Global Network of Sex Work Projects
• Article by a sex worker in the Sydney Morning Herald

Initial checklist

• I read the support docs
• I read the contributing guide
• I agree to follow the code of conduct
• I searched issues and discussions and couldn’t find anything or linked relevant results below
• I made sure the docs are up to date
• I included tests (or that’s not needed)

Description of changes

Remove "prostitute" from "considerate" list of "call-girl", and update rules.md accordingly.

Hi Marley! Thanks for contributing! And thanks for the sources!

The problem with many things here is that they are very context and culture dependent.
And, author dependent: and author could be mean, this project works under the assumption that the author is unaware and that there is no ill intent.
Authors could be, I dunno, some boring governmental organization or researchers of a scientific paper, which likely should use sex worker, but authors could also be sex workers themselves.

Some of what you say can be seen as suggesting that prostitute should also be warned about. That’s what your second source seems to corroborate. While another sentence indicates that some sex workers use the term.

So, I’m 👍 to this PR as is.
But, I’m wondering whether you think there should be a pattern checking for prostitute?

I didn't even think to add in a rule for that but yes there should, which of course then can be turned off by those who would want to use it.

Definitely everything you are saying makes sense, I see it as you would still want a rule for f*g, even though many many gay people use the word for themselves.

I'll add in a rule!
