        If you can’t get sex from being a cool person and you have to pay for it, that’s sad. If you’re addicted to sex and pay for it because you need sex is even sadder.

          People who pay for sex are not universally “not cool people” who can’t get it other ways. In my work with various at risk populations, from what I hear from sex workers, plenty of people pay for sex. Funny charismatic, rich, doesn’t matter, they’re just as likely to be Johns.

                That’s generally how it’s been done in America for hundreds of years. I think peasants in Europe did it like that even further back too. So how long until it can be considered “tradition”?

                    Rich families married for power, peasants married for love. That’s pretty much how it’s always been. Lmao do you think people who worked on a lords farm was also worrying about who their daughter could marry to get a leg up? That’s ridiculous
