Puttanesca was invented by prostitutes. It's a sort of stew/ragout with seafood anchovies and olives, served on spaghetti
Checks out, "pasta alla puttanesca" literally translates to "whore-style pasta"
Why not whore-ish
Slutty spaghetti

Next Halloween costume
Love me some whore dish 🤤

According to a websearch that's an oft repeated but dubious origin story

Never let the truth get in the way of a good story
