Blood Whore is a derogatory slur that describes any dhampir who allows a Moroi to feed from them, typically during sex acts. This behavior is considered uncouth and scandalous and is likewise highly discouraged and looked down on, making it a kind of slut-shaming or sex guilt. Dhampirs, typically women, who actively seek to engage in blood-related sex acts with Moroi often dress in revealing clothing and may employ large amounts of makeup and flirtatious techniques to attract Moroi men. This is rooted in a power trip, a sex fantasy, or low self-esteem.
Blood whores generally wear revealing clothes and tons of makeup in hopes of getting a good Moroi. Rose gets teased about wanting to be a blood whore because she let Lissa feed off her when they ran away. Not only does she get teased, but she is bullied because of it. Blood whore is also a term often given to any Dhampir mother who doesn't choose to become a guardian but instead raises their children, often in a Dhampir commune. A dhampir commune is a community where groups of dhampir mothers and their families live. Since there is a stigma that all Dhampirs who don't become guardians are blood whores, there is also a stigma about these Dhampir communes, often given the nickname and slur "Blood whore commune" or blood whore house. These dhampir communes are often depicted as places where Moroi men go to have sex and drink blood from female Dhampirs. Although this is sometimes true it isn't always correct. For example, Baia, Russia, where Dimitri lived.
A Quote From Vampire Academy: The Ultimate Guide[]
Bloodwhore: "An insulting term for a dhampir, male or female, who allows a Moroi to drink their blood while having sex. It's also an unfair slur often applied to single dhampir mothers who choose to raise their children instead of becoming guardians." -- Vampire Academy: The Ultimate Guide. Page 300.
Teenage dhampirs are often peer-pressured into bloodwhore acts by Moroi males. A Moroi bite releases endorphins and drugs that cause a "happy" high to the bite. Like bloodwhores, feeders are often looked down upon because they are addicts to a Moroi's bite. Additionally, when someone is bitten during sexual intercourse, it is said to give an amazing feeling to both parties.
