Have you ever heard the "N-word" applied to white people? I personally have only ever heard white people use it to label other white people. By your untortured logic, can we declare it to be free of racial context? After all, inherently that word derives from the word for black, and anything can be black -- people, bananas, a tshirt, anything it's not inherently a statement of race. I'm imagining that you wrote the feeble defense contained in your second paragraph only after you finished complaining about how men can be whores. You probably realized the very obvious flaw, but like many men, couldn't bring yourself to admit that actually, men who whore around (in the sexual sense) are considered studly. More importantly, they are enviable -- I know of no promiscuous men who became that way by considering sexually active women to be whores. Men who constantly are rejected, on the other hand, will sometimes descend into such resentment.
