I'm not talking just about relationships, I'm talking about the asymmetric access men and women have to sex. This is an undeniable fact of life. If a man wants to get laid tonight, he will have to work hard, and his chances are not that high. That's why ~80% of the prostitutes are women... most women just don't need to pay for sex.
- lolc 4y agoRelax, it's just culture. People who have open relationships tend not to talk about it. Some because they don't like getting lectured on cultural inventions like monogamy. Others because they don't want to get advances from sex-mercenaries. So you may just not know what your friends are up to, because why would they tell you of all people? If you allowed a bit of nuance, you could learn surprising things about humans.
- cassepipe 4y agoYes that's an undeniable fact of life but that's not the only one informing men/women relationships, not even the main one. It seems though that is the only one you care about Your point of view is so informed by your situation and has so little empathy that you don't even acknowledge the large portion of women that are not deemed to be fuckable by men and are derided for that, whether because of age, or body type or sometimes because they talk too loud
- chefkoch 4y agoFor most man yes, some men get laid easily.
- AdrianB1 4y agoTrue, but even for them it is harder that for most women. I think this is the point above.
