  • For sale

    She tells me she wouldn’t do it, but doesn’t see anything wrong with it.  I ask her why she wouldn’t, or when she would.  Not that she’ll tell me anything I want to hear.

    Another thing I don’t approve of.  Yes, I’m a pretentious bitch.  But I don’t need to approve of everything,and I hope she knows that. 

    There was a time that we talked about “players” and“sluts”.  It seems more acceptable for a man to be promiscuous, though many women will avoid such men.  Men will talk badly about a promiscuous woman – but then they’ll still bang her.  Men have sex with women they don’t like. That must mean women have sex with men who don’t like them.  This isn’t always the case with a sexually active woman, of course, but when it is, that seems pretty slutty to me. 

    The prostitute is the ultimate example of this.  Men who hate women have sex with prostitutesso they can look down on them.  They perform the act as a degrading thing. Many dislike their significant others, or can’t form stable enough relationships to have significant others, and they take it out on the whore.  Not all Johns truly hate women, of course, but they virtually all see themselves as better than or above the prostitute.  It’s demeaning for the woman, but the men aren’t exactly victimizers when the woman has a choice in the matter.  She chooses to degrade herself, and sells her dignity.  Virtually any job is better than that. 

    Prostitutes probably don’t see things this way, of course, so is it still possible for her to be degraded if she doesn’t see the act as reprehensible?  For argument, let’s say no.  How does she see it then?  As an easy way to make men give her money.  This objectifies men, turning them into animals, objects of uncontrollable lust.  Both people are having sex.  One of them pays for it.  If that isn’t demeaning, I don’t know whatis.  This highlights, of course, a natural advantage of women.  They are themore desirable ones, the sexier sex. Prostitutes take this natural imbalance, this inequality, and exploitit.  They make men pay for something that should be free and natural.  And men resent it.  The more they resent it, themore they resent women, and specifically, prostitutes.  Then they have sex with them, because men fuck women they hate.

    She thought most young men were too horny to have strong morals regarding sex.  Most men do, though.  That’s why they look down on the prostitute.  They just don’t think about it, and they act selfishly.  There's a lot of actions with a socially destructive side that escape my ire, of course, so why make out prostitution to be so particularly bad?  Because I think that sex is particularly special.  I don't know why, but I do know I'm not the only one.  It's why rape, pedophilia, and sex slavery are so horribly shocking.  It's why our society is so fixated on sex, and why there's so much business for prostitutes.

    Men need to stop screwing people they don’t like.  First it’s that slut he trash talks.  Later it’s a hooker.  For some of them, the next step is rape.  Women, for their part, shouldn’t encourage them.  They should stay away from players and other men who don’t value them, and never treat a man as a horny lesser being.  I’m a man, and I want to be treated with equality and respect - don't ask if I want a happy ending in the massage parlor unless you're willing to give it away for free.  When a man isn't looking for a caring partner and doesn't care about the women he's with, we should keep that on equal terms too.  The woman should look the player in the eyes and scream, “Say my name, bitch!”  That doesn’t sound very slutty at all.

  • So a woman dates an older man

    And I don't approve.

    We drive in her car, and she tells me that she sees nothing wrong with this.  It's victimless to her perhaps, with two people deciding what they want to do for themselves, in a world that should respect freedom of choice.  Sure, I respect choice.  But this is still the wrong choice. 

    Should a twenty year old man date a fourteen year old girl?  The girl is certainly old enough to have a relationship, and she's probably already had a few.  But we frown on this anyway, because it is inherently unequal.  It's a bad thing for the girl, and we have to assume that there's something less than savory about a man who searches for immature girls.  Is it really any different between a twenty year old and a forty year old?  The younger woman will doubtless try to fool herself into thinking she's his match in maturity and intellectualism - that adulthood is a threshold, and ever after that everyone is equal (except the young men around her apparently, because she isn't interested in them).  But this certainly isn't true, and the forty year old clearly isn't looking for a mature and equal partner if he's dating girls in their twenties. 

    Is that enough for my condemnation?  Maybe not.  Maybe equality is an ideal that only I hold dear.  But this also isn't such a victimless situation.  The young men around her will be jealous and frustrated.  How can they compete with the older man's wealth, confidence, and knowledge?  He has decades on his side.  The younger men can simply wait, one supposes, and grow older, and date young hot women in time.  Will they?  Should they?  No, because of the other party that's wronged - the older women.  This older man probably had a wife, and if he doesn't there's a pool of single older women out there coming to terms with the frustration of aging in a society that idolizes the young female form.  Young men don't date these women.  This is shallow of them, because there's plenty of wonderful things about them for a man to appreciate.  But it's natural for a young man not to see this - the burden of maturity rests with the old.  As a man ages, he grows with the women he loves, and learns to see more than wrinkles.  Nice guys, even while young, know this will happen.  They want to grow in loving committed relationships, or date other single women in their age group, because they respect women. 

    A young woman who dates older men probably thinks she can have it all.  She wants to date the older man to experience his sophistication, enjoy the ease of his established life and wealth, and later marry a young man, expecting him to love and appreciate her as she ages.  She wants a nice guy in the end; everyone does.  She's casually selfish, dismissing nice young men while she encourages mature men to be shallow.  She enjoys the beauty and power of youth and doesn't spare a thought for the older women she'll be joining one day.

    But this is a different girl I'm talking to.  She hasn't done these things.  She tells me that some of my views are new to her.  I tell her that it's okay to disagree.  Tolerant, respectful.  But secretly, I hope that if she's ever tempted by an older man, she'll think a bit more about it and choose not to.  Or maybe as I grow older and think more about it, I'll be the one changing my mind.
