Yes, I'm afraid they are.  You already demonstrated this in the net.women
fiasco.  I imagine it gets hard to filter this ethnocentric prejudice before
you speak to anyone in America.  (This is actual sympathy, not sarcasm.)

By the way, "slut" merely means sloppy person.  It is only sexist usage that
resulted in it's coming to be a synonym for "female whore".  So, you are
not quite correct in asserting that she looks like a slut; she was quite
neat and tidy in her attire, even though it showed more flesh than you are
used to seeing.
