Men use relationships for money too but not at the scale women use it. Not because men are more upright but because the opportunity is more open to women than they are to men 馃槀.
And this is one reason why even though I'm a guy I find it hard to blame women for the scale at which they use relationships for money. These days the world is mostly about accumulating wealth and maximizing productivity, relationships offer women an opportunity to also earn at the same time so you can't really blame them for threading that part.
But that doesn't mean it is NOT wrong, though. A relationship is supposed to be a coming together of two people who want each other for the right reasons, and wanting someone for their money is not a right reason as far as genuine connection is concerned.
[Dear Vishal]
But this opportunity is mostly open to women, so taking it is to be expected. The only way forward is men refusing to leave this opportunity open for women but that is almost impossible. The rich men who money ain't a thing to would always use their money to have their fill of women.
Even the men who aren't rich would gladly use their money to tap into those pleasures too every time they get the chance. Getting what you want with money is too sweet, and it is almost impossible to have the easy means to get good pleasure but you refuse to do it and you go on to live without the pleasure, seeing the pleasure you can easily get but suffering the lack of it even though you have the easy means馃槄.
was supposed to stop all of these, because feminism is supposed to be about women making their own money like men and not being commodities or second class citizens but full fledged humans.
But feminism failed at this. By not tackling this very thing like they should. I've come across many feminists who didn't realize that this was bad for the status of women in society. I've met many of them who think being the "providee" is a flex.
But the fact remains that as long as women are being paid for, rented and bought like commodities they'll always be more like second class citizens.
Being in a relationship with someone and having them pay your bills and all that might feel good, but he who pays the piper dictates the tune. The payers would always be the boss and the payees would always be subservient or at least regarded as beneath the payer. Simply put, paying gives you authority.
Feminism was the only thing that could save mankind from this but it has failed, only a proper feminist revival can help now but that seems very unlikely as it would be very difficult for women to say no to the opportunities in earning from relationships and related things.
Also, world economy is quite bad these days. A great economy is something else that would help. If the cost of living becomes way less, making money becomes way easier, and there is more abundance, people would better able to afford dignity and relationships for money would be reduced.
But what are the chances of an economy like that?
