Posted November 9, 2021 (edited) for me prostitution makes men and women akin to mortal enemies, like a crack addict turning every stone to get at their dealer in some circumstances yea it can be okay, for example some disabled people have no other way of experiencing intimacy but in most cases for me it makes the world more polarized alienating cold and desperate it is like engaging in legalized slavery when you realize how dehumanized it makes the sex provider in short i believe it fosters mutual ever growing hatred between the parties in the long run ... but that's just me Edited November 9, 2021 by gettoefl Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 9, 2021 @ivankiss A friend of mine had a feminist, artist prostitute as a grandmother. There are some women who do this job and somewhat find a lot of beauty in it. Maybe try to find one of them. You'll be a better client for her than most. Be cautious when a naked person offers you a t-shirt. - African proverb Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted November 9, 2021 (edited) To be stupid or not to be stupid. Very difficult choice indeed. Lol Focus on smth else maybe, these desires will pass soon and you will feel good that you didn't go that road in the end. I think somewhere deep you know it. That's why the struggle is happening within you. Just do the right thing, you'll be glad in the end. ? Edited November 9, 2021 by Salvijus I simply am. You simply are. We are The Same One forever.

Posted November 9, 2021 I'm thinking very selfishly here. What's right or wrong for me, only. The prostitute's point of view, is a whole other topic. A different story. Not really my business. I also don't really give a fuck about what society thinks about this. I'm just not sure if I should satisfy the urge, or transcend it. I see value in both sides.

Posted November 9, 2021 (edited) The whole society is damaged. And these things like going to prostitutes only makes the collective world situation worse. Either you're a part of the problem, or you're a part of the solution. Don’t be a part of a problem if you can, that would be a wise thing to do. ? Edited November 9, 2021 by Salvijus I simply am.

Posted November 9, 2021 Bruh no big deal go do it a dozen times get a feel for what it's like and then contemplate further if it's an experience that fulfills you in any way. No shame. It's the oldest profession in the history of mankind. The only one judging you will be yourself. Can you be okay with it or are you going to need a priest to confess? ?
