Just because you can have sex doesn't mean other people want to have sex with you (for nothing), let alone right when you happen to be feeling randy. Or maybe you're just butt ugly or a total creeper and can't get the girls you find attractive without paying for sex outright.

In that case, nobody is doing the job for free, so there still exists some space for someone who does the job for a higher-than-free price…

Which is why prostitution no longer exists in Europe, right? In fact, it is actually legal in some of the most liberal countries there. Those countries are hardly sexually restrictive, and yet prostitutes make money there. But how can this be? Oh wait, I know: it's because that theory is bullshit.

1. …which is why the number of European johns rises very clearly with age. The younger generations do not need prostitutes; the older ones still do. Businesses can be abandoned by the younger generations and still sustained by older generations as long as those older generations are economically active.

2. Do not confuze liberal with sexually permissive. European feminism is a different sort of restrictive than American social conservatism. But it is also restrictive. And it also limits the amount of sex available. Even if you do not think, as I do, that it is about racism and/or Islamophobia, the Rotherham case complex stands as proof.

That's why prostitution exists. Not because the government restricts your sexual opportunities (except maybe in the most restrictive cultures on the planet) but because life restricts your sexual opportunities.

You must have forgotten that in most countries on the planet, government is restricting my sexual opportunities. But whatever… the main point is not about government anyway. My use of the word "forbidden" may have been misleading, but I am not talking about the government here. "Forbidden" is just as well about society. And in this post you seem to understand that is exactly what I mean by offering Europe as an opposition to America. Legally, American girls and women are as available as European women. But you realize the cultural differences and the effects of culture on availability. Does "life" restrict your sexual opportunities? Or is it culture? Imho, it very much is culture. Most of sexuality which is legal is still frowned upon. Obviously people will try to avoid it. I don't know what of this argument is so otlandish.
