About 30 women from across Japan have become "solo brides" since the service was launched in May. Almost half of them were married women who either did not have a wedding ceremony or were not satisfied with that experience, according to Cerca Travel. [In case you're a slow thinker: this means that more than half were single women. -- A.S.]That's probably the female end game: satisfying their boundless narcissism. Guys have it a bit easier in that regard. Thus, frustrated single guy in the West, don't despair! Your fellow men have been working hard on improving VR technology and sex robots, which will make women superfluous, or at the very least optional, for sexual purposes.
The company's president, Yukiko Inoue, tells Kyodo she created the package "to encourage women to have positive feelings about themselves", but admits that "some people have said it would be 'lonely, miserable and sad' to use it".

ReplyDeleteThat too.
DeleteRegarding the whole "sex bots" thing – which I believe is destined to be realized in the not so distant future as well – … you hinting at it reminded me of a legendary German (sorry guys!) analysis from a really refreshingly vitriolic blog (only available as archived pages though), futuristically titled "Fembots und das Ende der Frauen -ODER- Gynoids vs männerhassende Emanzen" ("On Fembots and the end of women -OR- Gynoids vs. men-hating bitches"). It's really a comprehensive and thorough piece!

Vom Stil her erinnert mich dieser Artikel stark an das Maennermagazin.

200 years ago up until the early 1900's in the northeastern part of US, there was what was called "Boston Marriages":

Hi Aaron. If prostitution was legalized across the board, allowing brothels to pop up everywhere, what do you think will happen to the social dynamics in the west? Will women become even more desperate? Will more men start going to brothels and paying for sex as opposed to going to clubs to find women? Really a subject of interest.
ReplyDeleteYes, I strongly believe this would happen. Imagine a world in which you would not only have legalized prostitution, but also highly developed VR sex --- a large number of men wouldn't even bother with women. In a way, we can see this reflected in the otaku culture of Japan. The Japanese are masters in creating virtual women. I bet the Japanese equivalent of Bluepill Bob much rather rubs one out to anime chicks than your typical Japanese woman, who is, from what I have been told, and contrary to popular opinion, quite a ball buster.
DeleteOf course, economic factors would be an issue for brothels, but if they were legalized, prices would eventually go down, and pure economic pressure would force hookers to treat their clients nicely. Note how the absence of any kind of pressure in the Western world downright encourages shitty female behavior.
MacDragard, what do you mean with "what will happen to the social dynamics in the west"? Do you think in most places of the "west" prostitution isn't legal? Have you travelled the Western World much? I doubt it. Let me tell you a secret: In most places in the West (Netherlands, Germany, Austria, Spain, etc.) prostitution is perfectly legal..
DeleteI made the assumption that he wrote from a US perspective, where prostitution is illegal in almost every state. Of course, in Western Europe prostitution is legal, but often marginalized. Imagine prostitution was handled like in Amsterdam in all of the Western world! I'm sure that as a consequence regular women would feel the heat.
DeleteMartin, yeah I was speaking mainly from a US perspective. The only state with legal prostitution is Nevada (Not including Las Vegas), and there's tons of brothels there including the world famous Moonlite Bunny Ranch that's featured on the reality show Catgirls.
DeleteYes prostitution is legal in a lot of western countries. But it is not legal to advertise or solicit for work. Thus it has made prostitution seem socially unaccceptable and with an attached stigma (it is sleazy, immoral etc). Things would change if it was a normal thing, if people were not ashamed, if brothels advertised like cocacola and if it was llegalised.
DeleteBut this will never happen, due to femminist influence on politicians (ie the women vote being powerful). I am sure the governments would love to legalise it as the amount of tax they would rake it in would be a lot. PLus solve a lot issues with angry young men.
I am talking from a british perspective.
Will women change. For the top 10% no, as they will always be desired and people will do what they can to please them. The rest will have to change, or stick to 'focusing on me and my career' until it is too late. But who knows.
I have had women, who were hot, but crap in bed and boring as hell. After couple shags, I would not even bother seeing her even if she were send me pics and wanting to do anything. I would rather rub one out myself. Most times having more self control, and refusing sex, can be very powerful when all women have to offer is sex to get what they want (sex, b/f, gifts, power etc)
