Thanks for the snark instead of an answer.
Actually, the snark was the answer.

How crude. That's like saying with the availability of dumpsters there's no reason for a hungry person not to get a square meal.

Once again, we see an example of how contemporary feminism has coarsened the outlook of women. That may be its most enduring legacy to our culture. And it's profoundly depressing.

Women can be extremely picky when choosing a mate, whereas men pretty much have to take what they can get. At least here in the US, that seems to be the way things work.

It's so hard for a man to get a woman, that nobody even knows how to do it. Nobody can even explain it. Or if they can, it's always some intense self-improvement process that takes a long time and may require the help of a therapist. It's something like "have more confidence", "have better self esteem", "have a more positive attitude". Something that requires a major personality change that takes months or even years.

It's so easy for a woman to get a man, anyone can explain it and a woman can do it in about 15 minutes. All she has to do is make an effort to look reasonably nice, and go to a place where there is men. A park, a gym, a sports event, a bar. Pretty much anywhere that there are other human beings. Or go to a singles event. Or put up pics and a profile on a dating website. If a women puts even a little bit of effort into it, she won't have any problems.

All the feminists continue to overlook this huge, huge advantage.
It's so easy for a man to get a woman with the availability of escorts and prostitutes.

A woman being able to look nice and get a guy isn't a huge, huge advantage in my opinion as the guy may not be worthwhile and the relationship may not be happy and healthy. I don't see it as a huge huge advantage that I can go out to a club and a guy can shove his d*ck in my vagina and bust a nut. No different than likely many guys don't see it as a huge, huge advantage that they can easily get a much older obese gal.

It's not easy for either gender to get a partner they want who reciprocates.

Seems more like saying women can get a free possibly dissatisfying meal with risk and men can get a paid possibly dissatisfying meal with risk.

The dumpster comparison is a bit illogical as the men are paying for the escorts/prostitutes not diving for free.

Unsure what contemporary feminism has to do with my statement that women can get free sex and men can get paid sex.

That would be about right. Women's rights, one legged man's rights, chimp lover rights, vegan rights, and the Mos Eisley space port of identity politics is the fundamental concept being discussed. Even if there is an issue what is the cure? Who will have the authority to decide? Who will be anointed censor of Pax feministing? Let alone the complex, arbitrary and spaghetti law that this entails.


The law ought to be that all people have civil rights ,and if they are denied wrongfully, then cause may be determined to be because of identity. However again, more of this can be handled merely by moving to meritocracy . The only reason why not is because they want t to use their identities for advantage.

Easy -- you commodify sex, which is precisely the central criticism of men expressed by feminists.

You have met the enemy -- and he is you.

Unsure how it's regarding sex as a commodity to show men can also get sex easily unless the mention of escorts/prostitutes to you is regarding sex as a commodity.

Really unsure how I'm the enemy because I state that men can get sex easily ala prostitutes and escorts.

How else would you define something that is bought and sold?

I'm afraid you'll have to figure that out by yourself, dear. Try Googling Pogo.
