My pet peev

I have a few things that get under my skin  and none more than the word "hoe".   
Every time I hear it .. I yell out "what in the hell is a hoe?'
Now come one, I know what a hoe is.. you take it to the garden and start digging..... Not a jargon for a woman of the evening or red light district girl or call it what it is a w$$$e (see the dollar signs). This drives me nuts. When I heard someone say "look at that hoe" i looked around and said "what hoe".. didn't have a clue that it was for a woman standing there and I looked at them and said "What the hell is a hoe?" "What language are you speaking?'  It's a garden tool.
If this is PC it's gone a muck or if this is slang.. Speak proper English. No wonder our education is going to hell in a hand basket. This is ridiculous, to me, this is just laziness and not at all cute. 
Hey here is an idea, if you see one of these "hoes" as you call them.. Instead of making fun or seeming not to care about them... why do you not go and talk to them, maybe you are what they need to want to change their way of life....

Thanks-----
