Strictly speaking monger means a seller of certain goods. Hardware sellers were ironmongers, fresh fish shopkeepers were and are fishmongers and the boss of a brothel was a whoremonger. People who told tales were gossip-mongers. So rather than being the sellers of poon tang, we are instead the buyers, but as Shakespeare wrote, 'A rose by any other name still smells as sweet'.

An alliterative phrase sometimes used in U. K. Is C#nt Hunter. This may be seen by many as rather crude but how about "Pussy Pursuers?" or, more relevant to S. America, "Chica Chasers!"

It might be better to use "queriendo," or "querendo," which comes closer to meaning "the one who wants" or "the one who loves".
The American Heritage Dictionary (New College Edition, 1975) defined "monger" as (1) a dealer in a specific commodity (such as "ironmonger"); (2) a person promoting something undesirable (such as "warmonger") And yes, "whoremonger" is defined as "a fornicator"; whoremaster as "one who consorts with whores; a fornicator".
Our hobby is not well-regarded in "polite society." Are we surprised? Then how can we be surprised that the labels for our hobby are, shall we say, less than compliments? "Polite society" would properly see us married-off, and suffering the slings and arrows of the matrimonial condition; or seeking a mate to marry, and suffering THOSE slings and arrows.
I, for one, would rather buy the milk than buy and keep the cow. I'm not offended to call myself a "monger," even if it does sound like "mongrel." There are young ladies' mothers, no doubt, who regard me as a "cur" because I don't come tipping my hat to them and cravenly craving the privilege of courting their overweight, over-"privileged," self-important daughters. (But yeah, "sport-fucker" is a more pleasant if "obscene" term!)

Interesting thought. This did occur to me too. I prefer the moniker " Connoisseur d'amor" or "Un Querido". Its true, "Monger" reminds one of the word "Mongrel", a half bred cur belonging to the bottom of the pecking order in all of natures creations, not the polished urbanites we all profess (and occasionally believe! To be.

Posts: 102By strict definition.
Oh, you know, this is pretty harmless. I agree that one can find definitions of "monger" that don't sound so great, like this from Merriam Websters dictionary: "A person who attempts to spread or stir up something, that is usually pretty discreditable--usually used in combination <war-monger>"
But its common use by those of us who "practice the hobby" is as an abbreviated version of the word "whoremonger", defined in various dictionaries as synonymous with "whoremaster".
And "whoremaster", as per yourdictionary.com, is defined as: " (Archaic) a man who has sexual intercourse or associates with whores".
Who can argue?

I don't know about the rest of you guys, but I try to be a gentleman, and I may visit a massage with happy ending, and maybe more, but it is just a way of having a date that you know will finish the way you'd like.
Why Monger? That is a name like we are attacking them. Shoot, we are just having a relationship with them that deals with money.
If you have a wife or girlfriend, most likely your relationship also often revolves around money. So ya know, we aren't some dark, evil guys. So can't we find a better monicker (name) for us?
