Stupidest Shit I Have Read In A While…

By jen

And I real a great deal of stupid shit…

Why men use prostitutes?

Well how about “Because they can?”  Duh…

This article is about a bunch of interviews done in “research” on the topic.  Talks about socially awkward men, men with intimacy issues, etc.. I was reading along thinking, is this for real?  Is this broad who is writing really being serious?

One of the most interesting findings was that many believed men would “need” to rape if they could not pay for sex on demand. One told me, “Sometimes you might rape someone: you can go to a prostitute instead.” Another put it like this: “A desperate man who wants sex so bad, he needs sex to be relieved. He might rape.”

I think it is pretty well established the act of rape is really not about sex at all or the need to empty your balls. It is about violence and power and the psychopathic need to inflict not only your will on someone but humiliation.  The ball emptying is just incidental.  Like serial killers who get “off” on murdering people.  There are wires in their brains that are not connected to the right stuff and they should all just be culled from the herd.  Let’s just ignore that little morsel of fact.  I would argue that the guy who says he would need to “rape” a woman if he couldn’t pay for sex is most likely raping the prostitute.  The woman is just not in a position to call the cops and file charges.  Also, not to be all realistic and shit, a man who needs to rape a woman is going to rape a woman regardless of the circumstances that led him to her side.  Everything in that passage is utter bullshit and I expected the writer to at least mention this at some point.  I got to this statement and I knew we were dealing with one of “those” women.

I concluded from this that it’s not feminists such as Andrea Dworkin and myself who are responsible for the idea that all men are potential rapists – it’s sometimes men themselves.

Wow.  Just wow.

The “woman”makes a point in the article  many of these women in brothels being trafficked from foreign countries.  But men who are looking for a hooker are not really thinking about that now are they?  I am not a member of the school of thought which says if men were not so damn horny then women wouldn’t be brought in and sold for sex.  A guy buying sex is not in the same league as a person who lures women out of their unfortunate circumstances and holds them as slaves and hooks them on drugs to make money off their bodies. If all men stopped buying sex today there would be another “driving factor” for bad people to prey on other people.

One paragraph seemed to be on point to me and it wasn’t the author’s words it was a quote from an interviewed guy…

Others were clear that they paid for sex in order to be able to totally control the encounter, including Bob, who said, “Look, men pay for women because he can have whatever and whoever he wants. Lots of men go to prostitutes so they can do things to them that real women would not put up with.”

I think men pick up prostitutes for various reasons and I think there is a difference in the psychology of a guy who drives around to pick up a street hooker and a guy who calls an escort.  The former has a deep desire to contract a disease and is just fucking self destructive and stupid.  The latter is either doing what Bob mentions above or needs to get his balls emptied on a business trip or he just doesn’t have freakin’ time to deal with a relationship or his wife isn’t scratching an itch or whatever.  I think the first guy needs a therapist and the latter just needs to wrap his dick in a titanium condom.

I could even make the argument that a guy at a bar trying to get a hook-up for the night and the woman doing the same have pretty much the doing the same thing as a call girl (not some poor Asian or Eastern Euro gal who thought she was coming to the west for a modeling deal) and John.  A guy can drop a load of cash on drinks at a bar on the “hopes” he gets to take the girl home before she is too sloppy drunk to participate or he can just skip the legwork and order out.  In the end it is meaningless sex with someone you will never see again and both are likely to give you herpes.  If herpes is what you are after then the “path of least resistance” makes some sense, no?

I suppose I will get flack for that commentary but I stand by it.

The entire article is stupid and probably paid for by some country’s tax dollars.  I suppose it is better than another fucking global warming study if for nothing other than the entertainment value.

Side note:  Was talking to a guy a work who used a phrase that made me laugh out loud.  I made a comment about how there are not enough Cosmos on the planet to make that guy less of a dick even if he is handsome.  Then of course the subject of “beer goggles” came up and then this co-worker says, “Sometimes you go the beer goggles route as a man and sometimes you ‘Go Ugly Early’ and just save yourself the expense of getting drunk.”  I had never heard the phrase “go ugly early” before.  I lead a sheltered life I guess.  Nonetheless it made me laugh.
