I received some great feedback in my last take.
One in particular, made by @cth96190, really hit home and I wanted to expand a little bit on this, which I left completely left out of the main topic as to why regulated legal prostitution is completely beneficial to society.
The comment reads:
"I would like to make four observations about prostitution.
1. Prostitution is an exchange between the prostitute and her customer. Nobody is harmed, nobody is robbed. That is, or should not be, a crime.
2. I believe that prostitution provides a safety valve, in that it allows men who have blue balls to vent their lust in a way that does not harm anyone.
3. During my work as a journalist, I have spoken with prostitute and brothel owners, who all told me the same thing. What they said was that the majority of their customers were married men, who were not getting anything at home. As one prostitute said to me: "If wives and girlfriends took care of business at home, I would be out of business."
4. Women oppose prostitution because it reduces the sexual market value of women in general. This is the same reason that some women oppose pornography. If men can get rid of their sperm without having to chase women, or be manipulated by a sexless bitch at home who uses access to her vagina as a means by which she controls her man, it reduces the ability of the members of the female collective (think Borg Collective) to manipulate men and extract resources from them. If men can shoot their load without having to be a performing monkey for a woman, it means that single women will go on fewer dates. This is why the female collective will lobby politicians to criminalise prostitution."
Focusing on this last point, I want to share the thoughts I have on this and try to expand on this.
Firstly, we have to address the reasons women give as to why they condemn prostitution and why it should be illegal everywhere. As I pointed out in my last take, most countries that have prostitution as a legal regulated activity are better off.
1- Prostitution still has people that are victims of sex trafficking. Some women are coerced into it.
This makes me think: What a noble reason to say no, does this also mean that women altogether hate the diamond industry because of the violence and trafficking associated with it?
How would these self-righteous women react if their boyfriends told them they didn't believe in diamonds since they symbolize violence, I wonder...
Leaving all comparisons aside, I addressed this topic in detail in my last take, and how regulated prostitution has a positive impact in this regard, rather than negative.
2- Have different views on sex /Sex is a service...
...yet they find women that engage in prostitution/cam whoring/gone wild baiting/stripping all acceptable. In fact when it comes to sexual history normally they say: "as long as he is clean".
3- Guy is having sex with a woman who doesn't want to have sex.
I don't get it.
Do you think your mail man wants to deliver you mail? Do you think nurses want to wipe your ass when you are a senior citizen? And if this is the case then why would you be okay with sex workers in general?
I think we could see it as a proper profession, and a way of income by, again, looking at what happens when prostitution is legal and regulated.
4- Men that visit prostitutes are low value
Women won't admit this but if some millionaire was to say he slept with prostitutes they wouldn't bat an eye. Most male celebrities have slept with prostitutes, have had multiple orgies and slept with many women. But in the context of someone on gag is probably going to be some nerdy dude who paid to lose his virginity, or something...
Women normally would despise prostitutes, however, since we live in the age of feminism, their anger is now projected towards the men that use prostitutes. Women know men would put up with a lot less unnecessary problems if they could get laid easily and regularly. But they can't appear to be "sex negative" so they support the women that do it.
With all those points out of the way, we must look at what @cth96190 is talking about, which is the real reason as to why women condemn prostitution for the most part.
The crux is that prostitution puts a price on vagina. That makes most women uncomfortable, as the vast majority still, to some degree, subconsciously buy into the terrible notion that sex is a favor a woman does a man, or a reward to dole out.
See, prostitutes sell "pussy" at a wholesale rate, basically. Most women being retailers do not want you to go to the "Costco of Pussy".
Also legal prostitution devalues it. Considering most women in modern feminized countries think that all they need to bring to a relationship is sex you can see where this is going...
Back in the day women (at least high quality women) were expected to be literate, well read and have several feminine skills (like cooking, cleaning, shopping for bargains for stuff the home could use, etc...). Now if they spread their legs they're A-OK to just take half their man's paycheck and blow it on clothes, shoes and makeup.
In other words, they sell "pussy" a la carte, whereas most women are trying to get you to buy a package deal, which is a Long Term Relationship with all kinds of stuff in there that some men simply don't want or need. If men can just buy the sex, women won't be able to sell the rest of the package to gain their profit. Women don't like men having choice because, generally speaking, in the SMV the choice is zero-sum; what one gender gains, the other loses.
Prostitution increases the supply of "pussy" to the market, and therefore lowers the unit value. It's exactly the same reason that women slut shame other women, anything that gives men easy access to sex means the leverage they hold is diminished.
Everyone who has an upper hand in life develops mechanisms for protecting their advantage, sometimes subconsciously.
