If that's what she meant, however, it shouldn't be applicable per your above statement. Juliette's experiences with past men occurred well before she met Nick. According to your own statement, if they are not hooked up, then Juliette is no more a whore than Nick was between the time he left Juliette and went to Adalind.
But that aside, using your own argument, Juliette would have had to have been a whore before, duringt, and after the entire time she was with Nick.
That being the case, wouldn't that make Nick a whore as well? Doesn't it take one to know one?
I use what I see in the script IMO, the text is not ambiguous. Alicia opens a window in this woman's past as not being a monogamous woman.
A woman sleeping with one guy is not a whore. To me it’s very clear she slept around with multiple men at the same time which makes her more of a slut.
After she meets Nick she suppresses her behavior and locks on a guy with a roof over her head. Her behavior, after stepping out of the house, takes a big change, which the actress admits to it in various interviews. IMO this confirms she was a trollop” In Waiting”
If she had stayed with Nick trough a learning period for both of them, then the whore, slut, trollop descriptions would not have applied to her. She would have been a reformed party girl and entitled to have been a respectful modern woman. But she didn’t. She not only released her party girl persona two-fold. She also became a criminal.
As for Nick. We get no window in the script of his past. As far as we know, he could have been a virgin before he met Juliette which I base on how he kept clinging to her, even as she is starting to kill him.
He was tricked in his only infidelity. The other attempts to the infidelities were coerced. Out of his control. When living and sleeping with either one of the two women, he was monogamous.
I don’t want to rehash her being on a break up. IMO, her actions spoke louder than other opinions.
But comparing Nick to Juliette as being the same low lives is mind boggling, IMO, of course, compared to her, he was a stand-up guy!
You know you are OLD, when you see the Slide Ruler you used in college selling in an ANTIQUE SHOP!!
