says the guy replying to, what is that 8 people at once?
I'm multitasking!
Nah, it was a jest in relation to Sillimmu claiming he was working so had no time to list three jobs, despite posting pages of waffle arguing the point.
Rinsing someone of money because they have either an unhealthy obsession, or crave something so badly they're willing to part with significant amounts of money is wrong, yes.
So.... GPU manufacturers charging ridiculous sums for gamers who crave decent graphics.... or mobiles phones costing thousands.... ?
Who says it's unhealthy?
People have all sorts of fetishes and the like, most of which only become unhealthy when they try to deny them and bury them away from judgemental ***** on the internet.
Do you also take the same view point on people who are addicted to gambling? They have the money at first, and they seek out the returns of winning.
They seek out the winning, knowing full well the odds are usually stacked heavily against them. They're still knowingly paying for exactly what they get.
Same with men paying for sex content online.
Same with Star Citizens who spent upwards of £30,000 on pledge ships, or Eve Online players who spend thousands per month on that game.
What about rinsing an old person for financial gain because they want company? Just because someone has money, and is willing to part with it because they're desperate, doesn't make it acceptable.
Why an old person?
Why not any person? That is how the profession of escort started, after all.
Often, they're willing to part with it because they have it. I've met a lot of people who habitually pay people to do stuff, not just prostitutes for sex but stuff in general, simply because they have money. One I know drove 45 miles and paid £30 to have someone change his windscreen wipers, despite me linking him to a 90-second video showing how easy it was to DIY.
None of this is anything I'm inclined to do myself, but if you're able to supply a service that other people will pay for, are you exploiting them or are you prostituting yourself to them?
How about gardeners making money off people who are too lazy to mow their own lawn? Are they taking advantage?
Are bus companies taking advantage of people who are too lazy to walk and too poor to afford their own car?
Although your reply still doesn't justify your response that some men take advantage of women, therefore it's fair game the opposite way.
I'd say men probably have it coming, in that regard.
But who says it has to be justified? Given the rest of the post, it's certainly understandable, and if we're being honest most people take advantage of someone else at some point in their lives.
