That's a lot of judgement for someone who made a living off of people drinking.

sorry my friend but my experience dealing with people who either stay in abusive relationships or go from one to another tend to be people with underlying issues that need addressing. It may seem on the surface that security is part of the equasion, but it is never really the issue.

Uh; if a dude sells himself to women like a "gigolo", he's no better.

Women have sex with guys they don't love all the time. Sometimes they are married to them. Yes, it's IS a fact that historically woman married for security, not love. All the love stuff is fairly recent....and isn't proving itself to work that well.

I don't think they are necessarily damaged, I think they are human.

girls would be no more damaged than men.

who would call me damaged if women paid me to have sex with them?

bit of a double standard surely.

Would you prefer that they go on welfare and leech off the state?

She is just as damaged as the guy who pays for it.

I LOL'd.

Cuz it's true.

How is paying 50 bucks to have sex with a woman any different to spending 50 bucks on dinner, and then having sex with her? (as reward)

It's exactly the same.

It isn't an either-or proposition. They should work, cut costs, be thrifty, or seek help if they truly need it, sure. Part of the reason securities exist, like food stamps, is so people can't be enslaved and demoralized should they end up in incredibly rough times where they would be incredibly desperate. Come to think of it, the johns should be put on the sex offender list too.
