Alcoholism and women Book

I loved this book at first, the encouragement, the wisdom that women should under all circumstances support one another. Then I got to the page where she refers to certain women as sluts and whores (and then she does it again! in the next chapter). I picked up this book because of her other compassionate, wise, powerful writing, but this one doesn't quite fit. It's uplifting in places, yet preachy and judgmental in others. If we are going to uplift all women then we need to be compassionate towards ALL women with the understanding that some act like sluts and whores because they don't know better and because they need help. This book was written a long time ago (90s I think) so perhaps its time for a rewrite/revision?
