On the subject of "strumpet" and Dub-Dub's synonyms, I recall a conversation several years ago among dr. bill, a client of mine [I'm a real-estate attorney] and me. One of us had used the phrase "world's oldest profession", which led us to speculate on what profession is truly the oldest.
"Notice," said dr. bill, "that in Genesis, the very first book of the bible -- indeed as early as the second chapter, the sixth day of Creation -- God created Eve out of Adam's rib. This being a surgical operation, we have it on divine authority that medicine is the oldest profession."
To which my client rejoined, "But Bill, even earlier, at the start of the first chapter, God created the earth and the heavens out of chaos. This was of course the first (and greatest) real-estate development."
Lawyer Keiva grinned evilly. "And who, sirs, do you think created the chaos?"
