Why limit this to modern marriage?

The transactional nature of marriage was even more explicit in the past. Consider dowries, marrying-up, royalty marrying-off children to consolidate power.

It always has been about power and money.

In that case, men are the prostitutes in India, since the bride pays the dowry to the groom over there.

"I am so horny, sir. I will engage with you in coitus most prolonged. Please respond."

The Bible: "It is better not to marry"

The pulpit: "A Christian's purpose is to marry, fulfill gender roles, and have as many kids as possible. Anything else is sin deserving of eternal hellfire!"

Prostitution is strictly transactional, no other element. Marriage is supposed to be about love too.

Therefore, promiscuity equates to prostitution.

That's not true. it has never been about love. It is only after hollywood started selling the romance propaganda that it became about love. Marriage has always been transactional. Dowry is a good proof of that.

ok wait maybe I'm just a simple country lawyer, but isn't dowry something that rich people do? Most of the poors cannot afford such luxuries.

    It's a way to control the masses. It's why religious institutions mandate that everyone get married and have kids even though most religions are supposed to discourage it.

    Jesus, and the most famous apostle, Paul, were both like, "Getting married is not advisable, it's nothing but trouble and a distraction." The pulpit now? "Get married and follow traditional gender roles and have at least 2 kids or burn in hell for all eternity." And "You're obligated to marry unless you have the 'gift of celibacy', which you don't have and literally no one but Jesus and Paul ever had it or will have it, so get married or else!".

    Both men and women feel sexual attraction.

    But sex was invented for reproduction/perpetuation, as it were, and it's supposed to result in pregnancy.

    Dating and marriage are designed to take this into account and to ultimately establish propitious conditions for the raising of a child/children, aka, a family.

    Everything else, masturbation, abortion, prostitution, etc., represent the mere hedonistic pursuit of empty pleasures ... a dead end, literally.

    It's not hateful.

    The word "hate" is over used, and misapplied.

    [–]Rah 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (1 child)

    There is no hate in calling things as they are, but prostitution often involves laying with multiple men for maximum profit. Marriage in the civil sense of the word is a corruption of the Catholic sense, so its obvious degeneracy will happen more often.

    If you're Catholic, "It is better not to marry."

    I would not say hateful however a Golden Rule = "whatever a female does before marriage she is most likely to do after marriage" and would any here really want his wife out sucking and fucking men for money? I married a Miss CA Beauty Queen and within just a few years she was out fucking and sucking other men as that's what she did before she married me. Nothing wrong with my dick she just wanted a variety of dicks. Made her feel powerful like a Queen.

    Marriage is not, but dating is definitely prostitution.

    Women will either have sex with you for resources or because they get so horny they cannot control themselves. This is called Ganzer's law. If you think that it's wrong you're some combination of ugly, poor, brainwashed & stupid. Who is living in copium world instead of working on your appearance, financial situation, freeing your mind & studying.

    Appearance and money are just as foolish.
