Why the focus on men? If it would benefit young men in that boat, wouldn't it be likely to benefit others in that boat as well?


I guess it wasn't mentioned for women because it's a lot easier for women to get sex?


Whatever trends might exist in terms of cohorts aren't relevant in terms of individuals.

Also, that whole tangent is a deeply biased** rabbit hole used to invalidate some people's struggles because another set of people refuse to consider that they might be telling the truth.

If you named that bias as misogyny, collect 1 bonus point.

It would mostly benefit men for the reasons stated above but they’re going to not legalize prostitution anytime soon.

The US government/congress is mostly dominated by older people and older people have a tendency to have more “traditional “ beliefs. Older people also tend to be more religious as well.

As older people start to die out, so will their traditional beliefs so it may not be until 30-40 years from now when we start to see change

Well, in the developed countries there are already a ton of government-provided and corporate-sponsored programs and policies that have a preference for women.

To help women who are involuntarily celibate get laid? Well, I suppose they should stop discriminating against men in that same boat... supposing that's what you're saying exists.

If you're saying programs that benefit women exist, therefore men deserve help with this specific issue but women don't, that seems absurd.

If it's a problem that people should receive help for, people should receive help regardless of their gender and orientation.

I think that we need to focus on stuff like feeding people, educating them, and providing sufficient medical care before we turn our attention towards funding sexual satisfaction. It is (and probably should be) pretty low on the list of priorities.

It is probably equally hard for men and women to get satisfactory sex.

Unsatisfactory sex is worse than no sex at all, to me.

especially if it is the mortifying kind where the guy can't finish or even start.

Oh of course any service for men should be open to all genders.

[color=black]The government will not fund abortions, contraception, sex education, or sex therapy because free and abundant access to any kind of reproductive service will only lead to rampant hypersexuality in underaged people, which is the root cause of all things Antifa, Black Lives Matter, Critical Race Theory, and the entire LGBTQ+ movement, as well.


I'm suggesting the US could learn from more socially advanced countries
https://www.mic.com/articles/85201/the- ... d-have-sex

Interestingly the Netherlands led the way with decriminalising marijuana use and surprise! several US states have now decriminalised marijuana now for personal use. Sex therapy is literally no different in that therapuetic benefits outweigh the backward stigma that sets America in the mindset of 16th century puritans.

IMHO if we were a bit more like bonobos, it could only be better than what we have now.

There seems no other way of making it clear that this type of misogynistic comparison is not tolerated - other than taking away your toys.

Think before you post, please.

I can’t “go all the way” any longer without Viagra.

But I can still satisfy a woman in other ways.

If a woman can’t understand that, and requires only PIV sex, then what can I say?
