Posts: 250Sticky Sex
I find words usually screw people up. I think thats one of the reasons I love Colombia. I have so few words to work with so I speak directly. Consequently, I get more of what I want and less of what I don't.
So instead of calling sex magical like Disney, I propose to call it "Sticky!" or some non discript phrase like that. Because even when its bad its still kinda good. Joke: how is sex like air? Both are no big deal unless your not getting any." Even in examples of bad sex, for some reason, the memory can still stick with you. Why is that? I can recall some mediocre to terrible experiences with great detail. And also some amazing experiences with great detail. Point is, sex often provides kind of an awake moment. When fucking, you tend to be "right here right now" or an even simpler analogy, on a momentary vacation from the rest of your life. So you tend to remember that shit. It could also have effects like a drug.
Just my two cents.

Dickhead, definitely some sex is better than others. But it's always still magical. Kinda like pizza.

Posts: 3359To say that "all sex has a magical element" strikes me as somewhere between a bit of a stretch and a complete crock. Let me give you a recent example. Last week I went to my favorite privado in Buenos Aires and tried a new provider / performer / woman / ho or whatever is the appropriate noun. A perfectly nice woman, decent looking, far younger than I am, from Paraguay. Absolutely unresponsive, turned her head away from kissing, told me no BBBJ even though that is the specialty of this particular privado. I said,"Fine; use a condom then." She put on the condom, bobbed her head up and down rapidly and ineptly, and I pretended she was someone else doing something else and came as fast as I could. I had broken one of my one rules, which is to take a half hour session the first time with a new person, but even though there were at least 40 minutes left, as soon as I came, I threw the condom in the trash, put my clothes on, and left without a word.
So find the magic in that! I have had many, many magical sex sessions, both with hookers and otherwise, and many, many completely meaningless physical releases, both with hookers and otherwise. In particular there is no magic in having sex with a Dominicana and listening to her say "¿Terminaste? ¿Terminaste? ¿Terminaste?" every five seconds, beginning ten seconds into the session.
Sometimes sex is less like magic and more like taking a much needed shit. But then I've been living as an ex-pat in Latin America a hell of a lot longer than three years.

Living as an expat in Colombia for 3 years has majorly opened my eyes to human nature. People here have a lot MORE sex than North Americans, and it's not because they have more free time (they certainly don't here in the big city) or any other reason, it's because by and large people are more physically ATTRACTIVE to one another here. A woman's pickiness goes OUT THE WINDOW the moment she sees a guy who PHYSICALLY fulfills her last expectation. She will pay the hotel room, bring breakfast in bed, tolerate other women in the picture or even open up her latent bi side for the guy, even pay his personal expenses, you name it. It's all about DEGREE OF ATTRACTION. This just never happens in North America because as ugly as the women are, the men are even uglier.
I'm also beginning to realize how awesome the ancient Greeks were with their aesthetics, and how RIGHT they were. I was quite the little relativist for awhile, but have come around to realize there are actually many absolutes in the universe. Being fat in ancient Greece was considered such an offense to society, it was sometimes even worth the death penalty! In contrast, we DELIBERATELY inject chemicals into the food so that our appetites are unnaturally stimulated to the point where we over-consume and wind up with health problems as a result :O

Posts: 3359"How do you know that the productivity of scientists declines after marriage? It tends to decline with age, too."
A lot of shit declines with age. Trust me on that one. But I'd be interested in a source or reference because I've always read and heard (and believe to be true from my own observations) that married men are more productive than single men. Tenure is an interesting point but only a very small portion of scientists are academics.

Marrying for, or dating, under false pretenses to obtain sex is far more costly and immoral than purchasing sexual services. People tend to ignore the negatives surrounding marriage and courtship. These relationships do not preclude the risk of STDs and carry their own plethora of issues including: financial squabbles, domestic abuse, divorce, allegations of unwanted sexual contact, custodial battles, division of property, emotional distress, infidelity or fear of it, personal sacrifice and feelings of being unappreciated.
There is way more immorality surrounding efforts to obtain 'free' sex than the outright purchase of sexual services.

Posts: 2656If prostitution is a waste of time then the whole courtship and marriage deal is criminal. Married scientists are less productive than unmarried scientists, and the productivity of scientists declines after marriage. So, if a scientist chooses to indulge in the services of a prostitute once in a while then spends the rest of his time on research of great benefit to mankind instead of marrying is that a waste of time?

Posts: 3359well, i don't agree parents have any moral obligation to fund their children's education past age 18 but i sort of get what you are saying. but if you don't have a family and you spend 100% of your money on hookers, that might be way stupid but i don't see how it's immoral.
regarding the wikipedia link in the penultimate post, according to them pretty much every single country has massive problems with sex trafficking, sex tourism, ****philia, blah blah blah. and of course it's getting worse, and yada yada yada. a crock of shit.

Posts: 919Wikipedia is one of the place
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prostitution_by_country
Just click the country you want to know (scroll down and you will see) and there will be information regarding whether it is legal, not illegal, or illegal in those countries.
Mind you can not rely 100% on Wikipedia. If you want to be 100% sure then you need to search the official government sites of those countries.

Posts: 3359"Spending too much money" is a moral Issue? How is that? I guess I could see if you spent money mongering and neglected your child support or something, but this seems like a real reach to me.
