Why men visit prostitutes so much these days

[slowandeasy]

Wow! What a crock of shit.
First off, men see Companions for a variety of reasons. Your "in the good ol'days" yarn is about as historically accurate as Soviet history book, and shows a fundamental lack of understanding what it means to be in a relationship. If the only woman you can see yourself with is a June Cleaver type, subservient homemaker, do the world a favour and castrate yourself immediately. Real men love real women, you want subservience get a dog.

Next, people, not just men, have gone to see professional sex workers in waxing and waning trends throughout history. In the US alone the legality of prostitution has gone through 3 different statuses in the 20th century alone. Europeans have accepted brothels to the point they figure significantly in their literature. Finally, in Ancient Greece and Egypt, for a small donation, priestesses of the goddess of fertility or love would perform "rites" with you.

As for the popularity of sex work right now? Simple: we're in a historical period where sex is prevalent, ergo paid sex will also be more prevalent and legitimised.

Agree with most of what you have written.

However, the original poster has something but missed the point. The relationship between men and women has changed drastically over the years. This is a result of many, many, many changes in society, and our social and economic life. The abundance of information, the amount of options that we have available (not just pay for play, but also
on-line dating, and romances), the ease of finding satisfaction are all factors in this.

The OP did seem like he was blaming the problem on women, and I think alot of the older folks do subscribe to that train of thought.

This sums it up for me.

Call her up. Fuck her. Leave.

The convenience factor of that makes it worth a couple hundred bucks to me. There's no need to make up a bunch of navel-gazing bullshit to try and overcomplicate one of the simplest fucking things in the world.

Yes, society evolves... that's what makes it fun!

The OP has huge problems with women. Maybe he is an old guy, but his issues are bigger than that.

Why do men visit prostitutes so much these days? I get asked this alot by female friends.

Answer:

In the 'old days', men were providers and women were nurterers. It was a give and take relationship where both benefited.

As time passed, and throughout society, women became less affectionate in all sense of the word. Men - in order to try and obtain the affection of women as it dimished, provided even more benefits in hopes of encouraging the women to give more in return. Without fail though, no matter how hard men tried, women became less and less reciprocal partners. In short, in today's modern relationship, women are consumers and men are suppliers, providing credit for purchase. Like most governments around the world, the debts will never be paid back. Men know this. And so they are giving things to women without ever be paid for their efforts.

That is why men visit prostitutes. With prostitutes, men become the consumers, women become the suppliers, and the bill is paid upfront.

:rofl:

We're simply not monogamous creatures.

I don't visit prostitutes...I pay escorts for their time and company...

Wow! What a crock of shit.

^ This!!!!

In my case, I like the strange.

BTW, Charlie Sheen is like the 15th billion person to use that phrase. Not sure why people seem to think he invented it.

If society is evolving, when are the civilian chicks gonna offer P4P or are they just all barbaric prudes?

Civilian chicks' version of P4P costs much more in time and money than traditional hookers.

 

[Jiffypop69]

It's very very simple...just look at some of these ladies that advertise. I have to hold myself back from seeing more of them !
The fact that it is relatively easy. Pick, pay, play, lather rinse repeat with some really awesome ladies makes dating seem like a really bad idea. Though I'm sure I'll do that again, and again too...

 

[milehigh]

I have heard more and more civilian men talking about the cost of divorce - saying it is not worth it - and stating they or whomever they are talking about should be seeing escorts instead. I don't even prompt them!

 

[SillyGirl]

Bingo. A lot of civilians fuck for money, they just prefer it disguised as dinners, vacations and jewelry.

Firstly I don't know if men are visiting prostitutes a lot more these days, it would be interesting to see some numbers.

And while certain pop psychologists suggest that we are not monogamous creatures, evolutionary scientists studying the issue a little more seriously are suggesting except in certain rare cultural environments, we generally are.

This is probably true, monogamy is historically the norm. This may be changing, especially in situations where there are enough resources to support non-traditional options like not having children, or having a child without a spouse. Also sex is now understood not to be ONLY a means of reproduction, but a recreation, and even for some, a kind of sport.

Regarding whether or not there is a lot more prostitute action these days: remember who the OP is - he framed the whole discussion based on his view, and of course he hasn't the faintest chance of finding a partner in life, so he assumes no-one else can either, as he has no capacity to assume any perspective other than his own. So he's seeing a lot of prostitutes these days, and assumes everyone else is also. (He's the guy who wanted to see a transexual prostitute but claimed he wasn't interested in the penis, he just couldn't get along with women so he wanted to find a man who would dress like one...)

Because, to quote an old NBC ad about summer reruns (even if she's been with a boatload of guys) it's new to you.

Variety is great and I'm sure I'm not alone in thinking that a fresh face (among other parts) now and then does the body good.

Not my fault society (read: my wife) doesn't see it that way

 

[SillyGirl]

Was that for me? Why? I don't think what I said really qualified for a Double.

Lol, What you said was so very true and hit the nail on the head.

Must have sent him into epileptic shock and he hit the wrong key.

And as is often the case when one spends time in private with a woman one has never met before, sex may occur between consenting adults behind closed doors.

A woman once said to me Men who go to prostitutes are dogs.

My response to her was that if they were dogs then women would treat them better.

Or at least act less shirty when my eyes go glassy and I try and hump their leg.
