The main reason why men on this board don't due it is porn addiction.
Potential benefits of prostitution for an individual man:
“At least 20 percent of American men born between 1933 and 1942 had their first sexual intercourse with a prostitute.” - SuperFreakonomics
Prostitution is a trade much older than humans, observable among chimpanzees, monkeys, penguins and hummingbirds.
Sex is in the most basic tier (Physiological) of Maslow’s “Hierarchy of Needs”.
Heterosexual prostitution:
1. Compels a man to get in and stay in physical and mental condition to perform with a stranger
2. Access to sex via a transparent exchange, eliminating rejection, reducing frustration (thus violent impulses) and depression while increasing energy and happiness
3. Separates sex from female validation and approval
4. Corporialises and demystifies sex; takes it from the abstract and passive to the physical and active
5. Great variety (of women and acts)
6. Increases sexual experience, skill, confidence, courage, sociability, self-respect and masculinity
7. Reduces masturbation frequency, general vice (such as smoking or overeating) and the appeal of extreme fetishism/paraphilias
8. Reduces sexual and psychological dependence on an individual mate or potential mate
9. Reduces simping tendencies and self-censorship around women
10. Reduces resentment towards women
11. Reduces resentment, suspicion, competition and conflict while increasing equality and respect between men
12. Reduces constraints on time, money, energy and freedom
13. Eliminates the possibility of relationship-related anguish
14. No risk of child support liability, false rape, assault or sexual harassment accusations
15. Private: removed from your friends and family, as well as random significant others or objects of affection
I would have been much better off mentally, physically and socially if instead of viewing internet porn for the first time at age 11, I’d had sex with a prostitute (the lesser of two evils)."
