>> When group A wants something from group B that most members of group B do not want to give, someone needs to be unpleasant. Either there needs to be unpleasant rules saying that members of group A are not allowed to ask members of group B for what they want. Or the individuals of group B need to act unpleasantly themselves. >> Laws against begging are a case in point. Banning people from asking for money they might desperately need is unpleasant. It also prevents the minority that feel good from giving money to beggars from doing what they like. Laws against begging moves the obligation to be unpleasant from individuals to society as a whole. LOL, this took an interesting turn. Begging for money is not equivalent to begging for sex, money supplies food essential for life. Nonetheless, I see the point being made, should we have rules where men are not allowed to flirt with women? Punishable by law. Yes, it will be abused, but it will also force men to find ways to cope. More salient question: Who in society should take the burden to cope with bad actors?
