The internet has created a form of prostitution

I have noticed recently on other websites and platforms that you can no longer just speak with someone. In order to continue communication you have to “cashapp,” “Venmo,” or pay them in some way. It’s actually ridiculous. Sometimes people want to build relationships but others just want your money and if you don’t pay up they won’t show you the time of day! 

Does anyone else feel this way?

It isn't prostitution, because there is no pimp. But yes, it is sex work. Try looking at it from the perspective of a young, attractive female. You work part time, minimum wage. You want money. You don't want to waste time just talking to random guys, you want someone to pay you.

There are still plenty of average looking women out there who will talk for free.

Chaturbate is not a social media platform 😛

But seriously, any site that has made talking with others so transactional, you need to leave. 

There are real people out there, but if you're advertising on the web, you have to write good ad copy as to what you're looking for, or get good at chatting. 

Maybe join several dating sites where you can take it offline if you want to chat.

Dude, the Internet has changed. It's no longer the domain of the socially inept and the insecure. These women don't want your attention nor do they need your attention, but they will give you their attention for a price.

Believe it or not, most women are not waiting to get swept off their feet by some man, the 'right fan,' an internet stranger, and they're not losing any prospects by denying freeloaders. In fact, if they WERE looking for a man, they're probably doing themselves a service by charging because someone who can pay for their services probably has a steady job, high income, and pays for what he cares for (or is just a porn addict, but the two are not mutually exclusive).

Is it problematic that so many women are involved in sex work to some degree now? Sure. Is it still largely and exploitative business? Yes. But for many of these women if they're gonna be exploited, they might as well make a buck in the process.

Maybe they see him coming when his pickup line is lmswagg, I own a mansion and a yacht. Would you like to chat? 

Even I'd ask him to pay me before I'd speak with him. lol

A little off topic, but back in the day, didn't swag mean Single White And Gay?

Yes, it's prostitution, and see who wants to invest time in you by reading/initiating engaging messages and not disappear before you decide to make it drizzle/rain.  Thanks for showing you're disillusioned.

Anyone worth their salt in sales should be able to persuade you into wanting to do more, and keep contact with good prospects.

If you don't like it, can take things a shade down between erotica art/writing, cosplay, fashion, fitness, and dance.  You're more likely to meet people who have other interests. I know I have, and it gives me a great sense of taste, instead of setting it up for incompatibility outside 1 fetish.

Could you just correct this by saying MAY give you?  I've seen so much socially inept and insecure people who react to a literal shut up and take my money message to forego and go live (or beg months later when they need it) instead for the attention; money isn't going to guarantee fulfillment.  Do you really believe your money matters to someone who makes $10k/month independently of performance?  It's like babysitting when there's no initiative.

I made a post about this a while back but yea this is more or less ruining dating websites. However I've been thinking more and more about how this is the result of traditional patriarchy (which I dont mean in the sense of vague anti-woman and anti feminine oppression but in the classical sense of society being organized family units where the father is the leading authority figure) declining and capitalism filling the gap. There's negative things about capitalist modernity's effect on modern culture and society but the more I think about this one the more I think its actually reflective of positive social trends.

 I don't think people should go on the deep end of MRA ideology and become actual misogynists, but I do think we are moving towards a more hypergamous society and that woman are commodifying male loneliness to supplement their own declining incomes.

the former I don't think is a bad thing; it's basically survial of the fittest taken to its modern conclusion and adapted to modern mass society. Afterall ever since europe figured out that it could prevent disease by cleaning it's filth in the 18th century plenty of people who would have normally died have been allowed to be kept alive until breading age and with classic forms of patriarchy guaranteeing more or less everyone a partner until the sexual revolution you basically removed all evolutionary imperatives from humanity.   

That under late capitalist modernity a large chunk of men won't be able to reproduce is a good thing, ten thousand years ago those men would have died in a hunting accident or from their own stupidity. Eugenics is inhumane and generally speaking the advance towards a safer and more just world is an admirable goal even if it preserves the lives of people who shouldn't be able to contribute to the gene pool. So I'm glad that for the sake of humanity; they can't contribute to the gene pool.

And of course this creates a market for intimacy. It becomes a profitable commodity when it becomes scarce, and that's exactly what it is. So I don't blame them for trying to sell it.

That being said if you try to bother with dating you are either getting the direct version of the scam (vemno me to message) or they are just playing the long game to be a leach so they can suck your life out until they get what they want of you.

 

It's not a gendered thing necessarily. Both genders do it in different forms. But with the way modernity has changed dating and has completely abolished all previous romantic norms you'd be an idiot to still think it's a good idea. More times than not either people go into a relationship wanting to take advantage of you (some woman wanting a sugar daddy of some type, some men wanting a free therapist or mom they can fuck) or eventually the honeymoon period expires and either they do what the right thing is to do when you lost interest and break up with you or they just think of ways to milk your continued feelings for them for their own benefit.

 

So my advice to anyone who is mad about vemo girls. Just stop looking to date woman. It's a ways of time and money. Don't bother hating them either, they have a good hustle and there are way worse things in the world (just look at the supply chains for coffee, chocolate, cloths, and fruit if you want to put it in perspective). And they like you are just trying to survive this horrifying hellscape. Can't be blamed for that, but why would you let them into your life then? 

Whenever you feel like you want to date someone, take a tip from me and just jack off. 9/10 you don't feel the need to date after that. Spend that time focusing on your own ambitions. Don't you want to do something great with your life? If youre goal is to settle down, marry and have a family, you have some loser ass goals. Make your life about you, not some money sucks who probably won't care about you in the long term (children included). If you are still feeling like you want love, go to a therapist. For me when I started getting mental healthcare it made me realize that half of what we want from love is just stuff we need to work on ourselves about. If you have depression then go on prozac since it kills libido or if you have adhd it kills it too and basically makes you an ubermensch as long as you take responsibly and make sure you mantain good exercise habits and supplementary medication for blood presure issues.

Really? Loser for wanting to have an intimate, emotional connection because of physical mechanics.  No wonder people are so messed up. I'm at my healthiest because of intense emotions and unique vivid memories that supplement jacking off, being rigid and unchanging with certain ideas cripples a person.  Can you remember the last woman you jacked off to, or if you did today, the ones from a week ago?  Being too reliant upon images alone leads to a warped mind of porn addiction.  Never thought I'd say that on this site, but damn I hope nobody takes your advice.
