[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A man paying for sex with a prostitute is equivalent to a woman seeking out a random dude at bar/hotel/conference for a one night stand encounter. They just want sex with a stranger and no strings attached. In other words, it is simply NSA sex.

The fact that most men will have NSA sex without payment (and most women would not... even WITH a payment!) is simply a consequence of men's 10 times higher sex drive. This biological libido gap does not make NSA sex any better or worse for a man to do it versus a woman.[/quote]

Exactly This![/quote]

Except the random dude at the bar isn't likely to have been abused and stripped of autonomy and choices for most of his life. If prostitution was safe and legal and regulated I would have less of a problem with it. But the reality is that if you aren't in Nevada or Amsterdam, you're likely contributing to human trafficking.

It's legal and regulated in many countires, including Germany and Australia, and most of eastern Europe. Also where it's not regulated, why do you assume everyone doing it is abused? It's a job like any other. Yes, the people do it because they want money, but isn't that the same with any job?

Probably there's more exploitation going on at the factory in Vietnam where your shirt was made than in the sex industry.[/quote]

Whatever you have to say to sleep at night. It is well known that sex workers are a vulnerable and frequently abused population. I don't think EVERY worker is being abused, but I think you sure as hell can't tell the difference between them, and that getting a prostitute in Thailand is like buying a puppy from a puppy mill, maybe your puppy is fine, but the industry is abusive, exploitative, and dangerous.[/quote]

Where were your clothes made? Did you vet the producers and factories? It is well known that textile workers are a vulnerable and frequently abused population. I don't think EVERY worker is being abused, but I think you sure as hell can't tell the difference between them, and that buying your clothes made in Vietnnam is like buying a puppy from a puppy mill, maybe your puppy is fine, but the industry is abusive, exploitative, and dangerous.

You're right. I try to shop responsibly but I am sure I make mistakes. But I TRY to shop responsibly. There ARE ethical clothing makers. It is difficult to shop for prostitutes responsibly. But I suppose if you ethically source your prostitutes than this isn't something you need to worry about.[/quote]
