I just wanted to check if something I saw on Facebook was true and ChatGPT immediately went on a rant about how sex workers are a persecuted minority and about how prostitution needs to be legalized.

I don't know about that, in some countries men who are happily married and getting it regularly still pay for sex. I think men crave sex as a recreational and physical outlet in a manner that most women are not accustomed to and equally allowed to reciprocate in. We tell women to behave and not act out sexually, but we let men be as sexually active as possible. Thus I believe there's nothing wrong with legitimizing sex workers if that's the kind of work they CHOOSE and they are not forced into it for any reason.

I have never known of such a case. I'm not denying those exist, but those are certainly outliers. Men generally only have so much libido to go around and if they are having sex with their wives every day it's hard to have the time or energy to cheat.

Well I'm thinking specifically of Holland (amsterdam) and places where prostitution is legal, but regulated. I don't really know personally of men who are "getting it on the side," but I've heard a lot of stories. And I don't blame men for wanting sex a lot, because that's what we are. We make over a million sperm a day, they have to go somewhere, and so it's no wonder to me men are horny all the time. To men, sex can be purely fun/recreational without deeper meaning. I don't think men think of it as cheating as much as just getting their needs met. Just some thoughts.
