prostitution is a very bad deal for men, men who pay prostitutes are idiots

People selling a woman’s virginity is prob one of the oldest forms of currency. It’s a pretty recent phenomenon where woman could “safely” sell their own. You forget we were once property and men use to use that strong hold instead.

They had have to pay cause they use to just sa them.

I would argue that prostitution is worse for women, especially in countries where its not regulated

incorrect, its worse for men,
but that doesn't make it good for women either.

I don't see how it's worse for men, can you explain? And can you give your impression on how it I'd for a woman?

thats true, you dont see how its worse for men,
because prostitutes don't have to earn money,
men have to earn money.
prostitutes receive money only.
money is objectively one of the most difficult things on this planet to earn.

Yeah I guess it's a little progress

I think if a man pays for sex he's either addict or it's more difficult for him to get sex then money

both of those things can be true,
but thats like saying i have too much money, i need to give it away.
which is what makes men who pay for prostitutes idiots

Having sex for money is earning money. Sure a woman could lean on a man financially for the rest of her life, but I hope you consider the systems in place that cause that and the people that perpetuate that...

jeeze i wish my female corporate boss would pay me 600 bucks for an hour of "earning" once a week. since you know its as you say "earning money"

i dont care if other idiot men pay prostitutes, i will get off to knowing prostitutes will never see a cent of my money for the rest of my life,sorry ladies ^ _ ^

They run the risk of getting beaten, killed, or raped in some cases, and in the best circumstances have to perform acts on some men that wouldn’t be desirable to touch let alone let them penetrate you. There’s some regard in them earning what they get paid for their work in there somewhere, Jesus Christ.

i dont think being paid to be a pervert is earning it.... they should get a real job, like everyone else

I like to see you’re a frequenter of the nofap sub. gives a little perspective.

your weirdo reddit stalking is misguided, i havent frequented there for months

Lol

There are many jobs held by men and women that get paid a lot more in one paycheck than a lot of us will see in a year or in a lifetime. It definitely seems like you're blaming those people for having those jobs and not the system, which is dumb.

No one is saying that you should spend money on a sex worker either. It's just an option for people and I'm not sure why that makes them dumb for utilizing that option.

Also men can be sex workers and make a lot of money as well. Not just fuckin' other dudes either lol.

>It's just an option for people

thats true, it is an option for people,so is rubbing chilli powder on your junk,or eating feaces, these are also valid options for people.

its just if you do these things you are mentally damaged, as are most prostitutes and also the people who pay for prostitutes.

the fact they spread disease to everyone involved is a great indication they shouldn't be doing what they're doing, also, if you are currently a prostitute and you fall in love with someone, you can look forward to giving your disease to the love of your life, what a catch 😍...

Ah now we got to the root of the problem. Clearly someone hurt you by giving you crabs~

Go to therapy and stop making yourself look like a dumbass on a public website.

lol,
the free reddit amateur psychology sessions are great and all,
but never in my life did that ever happen,
lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol

He’s just ravenously lonely

It's arguably cheaper than getting married (and divorced)

you could make that argument, and thats a valid argument, however you'd need to factor in the time spent (both sexual and non sexual) with your partner and average it out to an hourly wage, then id say on average its cheaper for the man to be married

You'll certainly get more time together with a spouse, but it might be more than you need, and it's not all quality time. If you pay only for the time you need, a Relationship As A Service model (RAAS) could save you money, compared to in-house hosting, but that depends on your personal use case.

men paying for a prostitute are paying for companionship, men are more than capable of gratifying their own sexual urges for free, so the X factor here is companionship not sex, which you get more of for cheaper in a marriage,

however if your argument is that you do not need women and that paying a higher price for less time is cheaper in the long run,all i will say to that is that men in general are very lonely and depressed without women.

if i was ravenously lonely, i'd pay for a prostitute, since i can easily afford one...
but i won't because if i did that id be.... an idiot....

There are prostitutes who are men also. Not to mention women who purchase their services

If you think prostitutes aren’t earning their money, you must have a warped idea of what it is to be a prostitute. Try it out for one hour with someone you think is gross and now you have to act like you like everything you’re doing to them and they’re doing to you and make it convincing or you could get hurt or worse. They’ll make you earn that money.

Mate if I’d got paid for loosing my virginity at least I’d have got more out of it than 5 minutes of missionary

sounds aweful, i'd never want to put myself in their shoes, because to do what they do id have to exploit the opposite sex (men) for money,
and as a man i won't do that because i love women, well, at least the nice ones.

I remember when eBay was new someone tried selling their virginity on it.

It got a shut down, obviously.

You joking

Holy fucking shit, prostitutes exploit men for money this is a new take my God. I need a screenshot this before you delete it.
