As mentioned above, it's not a cut-and-dry comparison. Regardless of the retention of freedom, (which in fact many females in relationships claim to have, and in some cases even more freedom), it was the comparison of the males role in society as the the provider as the money maker, with the concept that in very general senses: it will cost money for a male to have sex. That being said, I am not implying that it doesn't cost a women to have sex, but socio-historically speaking, it is the monetary burden of the male. The idea of prostitution in a very broad sense, is a simplification of this concept to bare basics. (Again, a broad sense: leaving out the issues of diseases, unwanted pregnancies, mental effects and trafficking).
...ehm, the hand and the internet?
English Forum???!!?? No way, that's pervy, you must be reading the sex-obsessed threads
Oh come on, everybody's doing it!
and there are none of those on the EF, right?
Wow this is funny.
The model was made by Porter who is quite famous for doing the opposite - explaining things in simple terms. I have no problem to admit that I like simplistic models.
But that's of course to banal for people like you... which is in short why scientists and engineers run the world, get all the money and the women...
I like simplistic models when they explain complex things. A five input to one output model isn't complex, especially when it seems that all five inputs influence the output to the same degree. But the diagram doesn't make that obvious. I took a didactics course at uni and this flies in the face of all the most trivial rules.
If that's a good explanation, I'd like to see a bad one.
if you manage to get ripped of in switzerland, I would recommend, that you dont go anywhere else in the world
Tell them:
Third most active complaints thread: Absurd Swiss prices
Sixth most active complaints thread: Swiss rip-offs
You opened up a two year old thread to say something about ripped off?? Makes no since except you are new and need the posts..
Still some way to go until you're a forum legend though.
I guess it's darned if you use the search function to find a two year old thread and darned if you don't.
There's no pleasing the EF
im glad he necroed this thread, it was a good read and i missed it the first time.
What did you get "ripped off"? :-)
..its better to get paid for sex!
Sheep don't have money
The thread was necroed by a spammer. icetealight will have seen it in the new posts list.
In Hull in the late 80s there was a club on Newland Ave called the Piper Club. Every Sunday afternoon they had bingo and a stripper who would do two stripteases. Cost of entry was 20p. It beat watching the Eastenders Omnibus.
Cheers,
Nick
I also missed this thread, tis great. And I couldn't resist:
And it was me that reported it. But just out of interest I did have a look at the link she posted to her personal web site detailing the services she offered.
To be fair, she is based in Zürich and certainly offers services to at least some of the English speaking community of EF.
