Meanwhile statistics inform us that Italians are the most long-lived nation in the world, with an average life estimate of 76,1 years for men and 82,2 for women.

I'd be happy to agree with you if you would provide me with a source. And while yes, those people are undoubtedly idiots, you still shouldn't call them whores. It's offensive. To sex workers. And has really bad sociological implications. Etc.

Look, call them whatever you want, but not whores. Or sluts, bitches, the like. It's not cool.

Well, you are an offence merchant, all right. I will use the word "whore" for what it means, as and when I please, and if that offends you you know what to do. Whoring, whether sexual or not, is bad. End of story.

As for my source, I hope you can read Italian. http://www.corriere.it/salute/11_dicembre_13/speranza-vita-stato-salute-rapporto_26479960-256d-11e1-97ba-d937a4e61a87.shtml

Google Translate, for what little it's worth, says "among the first in the world". And the specific numbers are less than those of other countries:
