Perhaps she doesn't listen to rap music and isn't around teenagers very much. I wouldn't know that 'ho' is a variant pronunciation of "whore" if I didn't spend six hours a day with teens and preteens. Being out of touch with teen slang usage doesn't make a person oblivious to the world.
The fact that one group, in this case youth culture, uses a word in a particular way doesn't mean the whole world does. To some of us, I would suspect that "hoe" is usually thought of as a garden implement or a variant form of "hello".
