Nope, except if you are one of those who have been using whore as a synonym for slut(which is actually quite common). But according to what these words actually mean? No. thesaurus.com/browse/slut

I got way too much amusement out of using the pronunciation function to make my computer say the word "slut" over and over. >_> Anyway, a "slut" is someone who sleeps around; a "whore" does the same, but charges for the service. They are similar (hence the thesaurus' listing) but not identical terms.

For whatever it is worth, my Oxford English Dictionary widget has the following definitions: slut noun A slovenly or promiscuous woman.
whore noun (derogatory) a prostitute • a promiscuous woman And from dictionary.reference.com/browse/whore, we have whore being defined as: - a woman who engages in promiscuous sexual intercourse, usually for money; prostitute; harlot; strumpet.
- a prostitute or promiscuous woman: often a term of abuse
Emphasis mine.

All of this, of course, COMPLETELY ignoring the purpose of SlutWalk in the first place. Hint: it has to do with clothes.

Pedantics aside, I adore all women no matter what they do with their bodies or whether they practice the world's oldest profession.

And I'm sorry that I chose to carefully read the situation instead of leaping down anyone's throat.
I want nothing to do with your ass.
