Where are the records that indicate this as being fact? As far as I understand it, that sort of recorded history would have only began with civilization. We've been "civilized" for thousands of years, I hardly call that modern.
But marriage is marriage, you know. Marriage is not a love affair. A love affair is a totally different thing. A marriage is a commitment to that which you are. That person is literally your other half. And you and the other are one. A love affair isn't that. That is a relationship for pleasure, and when it gets to be unpleasurable, it's off. But a marriage is a life commitment, and a life commitment means the prime concern of your life. If marriage is not the prime concern, you're not married.

For women, it gives them the equality they have fought to have for hundreds of years.
For men, it gives them a way to satisfy their primal urges without emotional attachments.
And as a single man, I'd love to just pay for a good looking women without the BS of courting her from a dirty bar and risk being rejected or c***blocked.
Well, I'm a single man. I don't have to go to a dirty bar and be cock blocked to try and find a good woman. I'm also not too sure the majority of prostitutes meet my standards for a "good woman".

Just a small point but....

He didn't say "good woman," he said "good looking woman."
I don't think any men are looking for a good woman when they hire a prostitute, they are looking for an attractive woman willing to do some things with them for a pre-determined amount of time. They don't care if she is a good mother, scholar, or runs over kittens on a moped, they only care that she is attractive.
BUT, and that is a capital BUT..... I do think too many men go to bars looking for good women, and that is not the right place to find a good women either! Also, a lot of men believe the strippers, prostitutes, and bar flyes are actually interested in them, and actually care about more than what's in their wallet, that too is a lie!
This is precisely why we need to separate sex and relationship status. If they can go hand in hand, then AWESOME, maybe that is a relationship that will last a lifetime, but we are judging the two things on entirely different criteria. I know some very attractive women that are just a ton of fun, but I wouldn't want them sharing my bank account or babysitting my children, and on the flipside I know some extremely responsible women, great with money, highly educated, wonderful mothers, but I'm not attracted to them.
Maybe the conversation shouldn't even be about prostitution, but should be more about an honest discussion of sex. When sex is tied to spirituality and an intimate connection it is amazing, earth-shattering, life-changing, and that is awesome! Except, sometimes I dont' want amazing, earth-shattering, life-changing sex, sometimes I just want quick, mundane, dirty elevator sex, so I can get right back to what I was doing before with a clear head minus the hormonal distractions.

I am just sad because I have seen and experienced to much, I don't really have anything else to say.
Maybe tomorrow.
