[Elvis 2008]

The vast majority of women are against prostitution for obvious reasons. Most women are using the "long con" method to securing a mans wealth.

They're not only selling the fantasy of exclusivity and lifetime access to their pussy, they're also selling the fantasy of the "loving partner."

I am glad you used the word most and majority and not all. A friend of mine came and stayed with me at my place in Cartagena. My gal made me the breakfast she always done and made some for him too: fresh cut fruit, oatmeal, and something like empanadas. I asked if his wife did something similar and he almost seized he laughed so hard and said, "I don't do this for myself. ".

There are women out there who are true partners. It is just hell finding one. It seemed like most women I met gave up being a partner after three months. They play nice, cook, clean, hand out the pussy, and then after three months or so, I was doing more and paying more and getting less. That is why I kept moving on from women or keeping them around just enough so they did not get too comfortable. The gal I have now has kept up the partnership ways for nearly three years now but for the others commitment = complacency.

That ruins the "long con" women's game, so they don't like it.

I've dated many women who regard loose women with disdain and hatred. Yet in true solipsistic nature, they "SAY" that they support sex workers.

Try telling a "regular" woman that you see prostitutes. Note their reaction.

CE, what I have noticed is if a woman draws a lot of attention and has men going after her, she is really not anti-prostitute. She wishes men would see the hookers and leave her be. OTOH, the average or below looking women are going to be very anti-pro in my experience because they think the pros detract from the ability to get a guy, and IMO they are right to feel that way.

A lot of men, in an effort to please women, promote women's virtue-signally, empty-headed social outrage causes.

I can only speculate, that the men on this forum who support infinity genders, pretend that women are oppressed in western society, and that the emperor is wearing clothes must be recently freed the "happy wife, happy life" lifestyle, and are still brainwashed, or have friends that are still "on the plantation".

CE, I really have only met like 4 or 5 guys from the site. All of them were working abroad. I never met so many of the posters Paulie97 described and did not understand why I did not see eye to eye with so many but after he mentioned the typical ISGer I got it.

Basically, there is a large class of men living off the government dole. You got a lot of seniors and ex-military guys who have gone the foreign route to take advantage of lower living expenses. That is where you see the virtue signaling on here. They do not do anything productive and just cheer on the government no matter how crazy it behaves.

You can pick anyone of the crazy positions like female oppression, "happy wife, happy life" (BTW, how many happy women do you really know? And infinity genders.

But after reading this article today, my favorite line is, "I support the troops. " Like what does that even mean?

https://www.zerohedge.com/medical/tw...t-record-highs

Now I could go with the government inspired opioid crisis from this article. Portugal's libertarian drug policies result in like 10 overdose deaths per year, but the military number is what really got me. 44% of veterans have considered suicide in 2022? How the hell can anyone support that?

If you really cared about someone, it looks like the last thing you should tell them to do is join the military.

Anyway, thanks for the good and refreshingly honest post.

China's Stalling Economy Puts the World on Notice.

As China's economy flashes indications of decline, the consequences pose perils for countries around the globe.

By Peter S. Goodman.

Peter Goodman, a global economics reporter, covered China from Shanghai from 2001 to 2006.

Aug. 11,2023.

For more than a quarter-century, China has been synonymous with relentless development and upward mobility. As its 1. 4 billion people gained an appetite for the wares of the world — Hollywood movies, South Korean electronics, iron ore mined in Australia — the global economy was propelled by a seemingly inexhaustible engine.

Now that engine is sputtering, posing alarming risks for Chinese households and economies around the planet. Long the centerpiece of a profit-enhancing version of globalization, China has devolved into the ultimate wild card in a moment of extraordinary uncertainty for the world's economy.

The risks have been amplified in recent weeks by a slew of developments.

First came word that China's economy had slowed substantially in the spring, extinguishing hopes of a robust expansion after the lifting of extreme Covid restrictions.

This week brought data showing that China's exports have declined for three months in a row, while imports have dropped for five consecutive months — another indicator of flagging prospects.

Then came news that prices have fallen on a range of goods, from food to apartments, raising the specter that China could be on the brink of so-called deflation, or sustained drops in prices, a harbinger of anemic commercial activity.

And in a sign of deepening distress in China's housing market — the intersection of finance, construction and household wealth — a major real estate developer, Country Garden, missed payments on its bonds and estimated it lost up to $7.6 billion in the first half of the year.

For Chinese workers and households, these events added up to trouble. Around the globe, a weakening Chinese economy signaled a shrinking of demand for major goods — from soybeans harvested in Brazil, to beef raised in the United States, to luxury goods made in Italy. It spelled less appetite for oil, minerals and other building blocks of industry.

"The slowdown in China is definitely going to weigh on the global economic outlook," said Larry Hu, Hong Kong-based chief China economist for Macquarie, the Australian financial services firm. "Because China is now the No. 1 commodity consumer in the world, the impact is going to be pretty, pretty big. ".

Over the past decade, China has been the source of more than 40 percent of global economic growth, compared with 22 percent from the United States and 9 percent from the 20 countries that use the euro currency, according to recent analysis from BCA Research.

More on China.

Youth Unemployment: As a record number of Chinese college graduates enter the job market amid a bleak employment outlook, government policymakers are leaning on colleges to help departing students find jobs.

Xi Jinping's Military: A decade ago, China's leader set out to clean up the institution. Now, a shake-up within the missile force threatens the image he has carefully created for it.

Children's Smartphone Use: China's internet regulator proposed regulations that would require smartphones, apps and app stores to build a "minor mode" into their products in an attempt to restrict how long children can spend on their phones.

Flooded Towns: After Beijing was affected by heavy rains, officials diverted floodwaters to other towns, partly to prevent overflowing in the capital. That decision, which sent scores of residents fleeing, has set off an outcry.

Adding to the worry is the widespread sense that the Chinese authorities are limited in their options to reinvigorate the economy, given mounting debts now estimated at 282 percent of national output — more than that of the United States.

The government has outlined spending programs aimed at spurring consumers to spend and businesses to invest. But the details have been opaque, while leaving the impression that local governments will be stuck with the bill. Local governments are at the center of concerns about the debt crisis. They had borrowed aggressively for years to finance the construction of roads, bridges and industrial parks.

All of this is playing out as China's ruling Communist Party tries to transition from an economy powered by state-directed investments in infrastructure and exports to one led by domestic consumer spending.

The old model has run its course. It worked remarkably well for the two decades spanning the millennium, when the government financed ports, electrical grids and other basic works for an export-led factory boom.

At the same time, private entrepreneurs started some of the world's more innovative and valuable technology companies. In more recent years, many have been constrained by a regulatory crackdown overseen by President Xi Jinping.

In the rest of the world — and especially in the United States — China's staggering export growth, combined with the loss of domestic factory jobs, has set off conflicts over trade.

The Trump administration imposed across-the-board tariffs on Chinese imports. The Biden administration has continued that policy, adding prohibitions on investment in key Chinese sectors such as advanced computer chips. President Biden intensified that campaign in signing an executive order on Wednesday barring investment in industries that can bolster China's military.

On Thursday, Mr. Biden referred to China's economic vulnerabilities as "a ticking time bomb," adding: "When bad folks have problems, they do bad things."

President Xi has previously accused the United States of running a campaign aimed at suppressing China's development.

Faced with hostilities between Washington and Beijing, and chastened during the pandemic by the difficulties moving products from Chinese factories to retailers in North America and Europe, multinational companies have shifted factory orders to countries like Vietnam, India and Mexico.

For Chinese policymakers, the alterations to the geography of international commerce have added urgency to the transition toward an economy centered on domestic spending power.

Still, those designs were halted by the pandemic. The government imposed draconian restrictions on business and freedom of movement, locking down whole cities.

The lifting of those controls in December, after an extraordinary series of public protests, was widely anticipated as a catalyst for consumer spending. But consumer spending has been weak — so weak that China's National Bureau of Statistics recently halted the release of data that drew attention to the economy's problems.

Chinese households have long been some of the most prodigious savers on earth, owing to the fact that social safety nets are meager. Over the first half of this year, total household deposits in the Chinese banking system grew by some 12 trillion Chinese yuan (about $1. 7 trillion), the largest expansion in a decade.

But the increase in savings, as well as the weakness of investment and consumer spending, appears to reflect a general erosion of public faith. During the pandemic, policy lurched from total lockdown to no controls — what the economist Adam Posen recently called "economic long Covid."

For China's consumers, some of the extra ardor for stashing cash reflects the widespread recognition that real estate is a story full of unhappy endings. Decades of overinvestment by developers has yielded entire cities full of empty apartment blocks. As prices plunge, developers are halting projects in midstream, leaving the skeletons of high-rises serving as monuments to a speculative bonanza gone awry.

This basic story has provoked comparisons to Japan, where the bursting of a speculative real estate bubble in the early 1990's led the country into three decades of decline.

Central to Japan's slide was deflation, a term that sends shivers up the spines of economists.

Deflation works its way into a society's basic expectations, destroying incentives to spend, expand businesses or hire workers, given the likelihood that everything will be cheaper later. What is, for individuals, a rational thrift metastasizes into decline for society.

Most economists think China will avoid that fate. Falling prices may soon reverse. And the government appears to have moderated its attacks on successful private businesses.

After years of demonizing private entrepreneurs, the government has lately signaled a pivot to a more "pro-growth, pro-business mind-set," said Bruce Pang, chief economist for Greater China at JLL, a real estate and investment management firm in Hong Kong. "The key policy priority will be how to boost domestic demand. ".

In the most optimistic scenario, the government will engineer a gradual transition to slower growth, trading factory jobs for those in services, while containing the size of real estate losses.

Yet if the debt hanging over China's economy limits the potency of the government's response, that could bring about the worst fears — a plunge in housing prices, followed by expensive rescues of strapped lenders, and an unruly exodus of money.

That outcome most unnerves government officials, given that it could bring joblessness, business insolvencies and social strife.

Such images undergird the assumption that the government will intensify its efforts to stimulate the economy, even as doing so may exacerbate the foundational threats to the economy, creating fresh debts.

Yet even if the government succeeds in overseeing a gradual economic slowdown, some see mounting challenges that threaten to provoke significant volatility.

The continued shifting of factory work away from China, along with the focus on centering the economy on domestic consumption, is likely to push down wages and household wealth. And even in a country controlled by a single unelected party, the loss of faith of large numbers of people may bring turbulence.

China's exports and imports collectively make up 40 percent of its total economic output, noted Yasheng Huang, an economics professor at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology's Sloan School of Management, at a conference in May. Many of China's imports are components for exported factory goods. So the more that China's exports drop, the more that imports do, too — a feedback loop of diminishing fortunes.

That drags down jobs and incomes, Mr. Huang said. "There's no way it is a happy story."

This so common hooker forum pseudo-intellectualism and sweeping generalizations of the female gender typically flow from a lifetime of rejection. As the Doors so aptly put it:

"Women seem wicked when you're unwanted. Streets are up even when you're down."

I prefer pseudo-intellectualism to absolutely none. And since you are into song lyrics here is one actually some related to American Politics:

Just 'cause you got opinions, does that make you a politician? Bush robbed all of us, would that make him a criminal? And then he cheated in Florida, would that make him a Seminole? - Jeezy.

Now Classic Repub Trump wannabe Ron DeSantis is applying those same Classic Repub national security and economic stewardship tactics to laying the foundation for the development of a Malaria and Leprosy Epidemic in Florida and, if all goes well according to Classic Repub plan, across America:

USA.

Ron DeSantis Under Pressure Over Florida Leprosy Cases.

Rumor has it Trump has contacted DeSantis to offer pointers on how to lie about the conditions, risks, mock any known mitigation measures and lampoon any consideration of inventing or taking a vaccine or cure for the spreading Florida diseases for at least the first critical year so as to make certain they develop into a worldwide economy-destroying Pandemic.

Your sophistry is quite unimpressive young man, get back to grammar school, oh wait that might make matters worse I forgot you're in the 3rd world!! LMAO.

From your Science Alert link, the only potentially credible source in your post:

Leprosy incidence, or rates of new leprosy cases, has been increasing in southern parts of the US since 2000, with reported cases more than doubling in south-eastern states over the past decade. Central Florida now accounts for almost one-fifth of US cases.

Yet a shrinking proportion of US leprosy cases are diagnosed in people born outside the country, while a growing number of reported cases appear to lack any of the typical risk factors of the disease.

Please explain how Biden's non existent open borders policy contributed to increases since year 2000 in south-eastern states that share a border with no foreign country and all while the proportion of cases have been shrinking among those not born in the USA anyway.

Of course, living in a "third world" country, I only have access to the worldwide internet, easily available data, video-streaming, live news streams, first hand reports and the like for my research while you have all of that plus, apparently according to your argument, all those great First World grammar schools to tap into in America.

So then it is puzzling why your primary if not almost exclusive sources of twisted and easily debunked misinformation are breitbart and newsmax. I mean, with all those fine First World grammar schools right there in your neighborhood.

Of course, if you don't even bother to read your own rare potentially credible links to discover how they actually refute your improvised points rather than support them, well, I suppose it really doesn't matter how great the schools are in your neighborhood.

BTW, when you tap on the Reply button to reply with quotes to someone's post you will at least see how that "quote" and "unquote" thingy works with the brackets and the forward slant and type those into your replies in order to separate the statements made by the poster you are replying to from your own statements. That is if, for whatever strange reason, it didn't happen that way automatically when you tapped on the Reply button.

That way it won't look like you are fully agreeing with and happily repeating the points you are presumably replying to in order to disagree with them.

While I am too old for that to have been taught in any grammar school I attended, that is just something I kinda' picked up along the way over the past couple of decades and thought I should share it with you.

What amazes me a lot is how DeSantis has found his way into good graces of so many centrists and even liberals. Oh, but he's smart. Oh, but he reads books. Oh, but he's articulate. Oh, but he's not violent. LOL, if anything, he's more dangerous than Drumpf exactly because he's smart, articulate and reads books -- yet every bit as unscrupulous, demagogical, lying piece of shit as his former mentor.

The more normal seeming ones are more dangerous than the obviously looney ones. Or used to be.

Coolidge, Hoover, Nixon, Reagan, Bush1 and Bush2 were all relatively normal seeming Repubs. Yet it might be realistically argued that the damage they did to America, collectively, in a select group or singly, was as bad if not worse that their inevitable latest incarnation, the demonstrably looney Trump.

It is easier for the relatively normal seeming DeSantis to bamboozle supposedly Bothsiders / Neithersiders, so-called "Reagan Democrats" and other careless, unthinking and ill-informed voters into supporting him than, say, Trump, Marjorie Taylor Greene, Louis Gohmert, Alex Jones, Ted Cruz, etc.

Yet their Repub agenda, policies and predictable disastrous results are virtually identical. They are only made more or less destructive to America by random opportunity or lack thereof.

[MarquisdeSade1]

Oh really? I'm sorry. Perhaps I was too vague. I will try again; Your example is total bullshit. Your hysterical worries about your and anyone else's penis are utterly the product of your ridiculous, easily manipulated by numbskulls imagination.

The greatest threat that has ever been inflicted on your penis re successful mongering anywhere was your own and your fellow Wingers' votes for Trump in 2016, without which we never would have had Trump's Pandemic and the historically disastrous, world-altering economic and pleasure travel results that have followed.

I did NOT address the self awareness toward you but toward Crow, which you pointed out.

However, I still maintain that the majority of the world is anti prostitution, or at the very least frown upon it. I am surprise that the article respondents gave it a 52% decriminialization stance, with a 3. 8% on the poll. At the end of the article, the respondents position is 49% to discontinue the practice of vice policing, so I'm not convinced that people are in favor prostitution overall.

My post simply addressed the (Dis) United States of America. But you clearly state "the majority of the world is anti-prostitution". In order to look at the issue properly we have to examine two different points: 1. Legality 2. Social approval. In the DISUSA we clearly don't have legal approval with only one state in the DISUSA allowing prostitution on a legal basis in some countries. And I would agree with you that socially it is not approved.

If you want to address the world issue I personally do not believe this forum to do this. There is a forum called The Morality of Prostitution where we can discuss this further if you would like. But as a brief primer I submit the following article:

Wow! Just wow. This is true. The CIA and FBI or their employees have edited Wikipedia:

https://www.reuters.com/article/us-s...42896020070816

The guy is wrong about Jews though.

He is? LOL!

I take it you've never heard of Daily Stormer?

The Daily Stormer is an American far-right, neo-Nazi, white supremacist, misogynist, Islamophobic, antisemitic, and Holocaust denial commentary and message board website that advocates for a second genocide of Jews. It is part of the alt-right movement. Its editor, Andrew Anglin, founded the outlet on July 4, 2013, as a faster-paced replacement for his previous website Total Fascism, which had focused on his own long-form essays on fascism, race, and antisemitic conspiracy theories.

As to Wikipedia manipulations, let's not go crazy, OK? Using FBI or CIA computers to "edit" Wiki is not the same as FBI and CIA "editing" Wiki. I seriously doubt that FBI and CIA are organizationally concerned with what Wikipedia has to say, LOL.
