What's to consider in uninformed viewpoints based on zero expertise or evidence? Don't you see you make a fool of yourself big time with this attitude?

Just rational consideration and imaginations.

Are you going to seriously claim that it is rational considerations that lead you to the theory of prostitution as personal development, intimacy and trustful relationships?

Yes, but come to the point please.

Yes

A theory is no good if it is not tested. I ask you again: how many prostitutes have you met and talked to?

You call it a theory, I didn't. It's prostitution as an ideal rather, which is more likely to develop if legal than illegal.

I answered that already implicitly and why should I answer at all? I never have spoken to a whore. But I have picked up some things in the news and in literature.

Um, the fact that you didn't call it a theory, does not make it more than a theory.  You can call your theory an "ideal," if you like, but that doesn't make it any less divorced from the real world, and from real women.

As I said I just throwed in some thought to consider, to enrich the discussion, not to get all the mud over me.

Florestan, an immoral moralist.

No, I say the truth. What are my "other fallacies"? Please with contextual qoutes from me.

A shame that my indulgence is taken wrongly.

Why defend Florestan, Karl?

Ok, Karl, I understand that you don't defend Floreston, but more the codes of good behaviour. I think however I do not violate them.

Why not a moral immoralist?

An immoralist doesn't use morals, that's against his proud and above all he would belie himself.

And an immoralist also doesn't use those immoral tricks like you. That's too low for him. An immoralist cannot be described as someone who like to trick or misuse other people. He want to go beyond morals, that's what he strives for in my view. This makes him feel proud, and he is immune for moral arguments, moral attacks.

A rule to keep in mind: if you buy stuff of monetary value for someone you are dating, make sure she doesn't decide to compensate in the form of sex. Actually, specifically say "don't have sexual activity with me because I'm buying you something." If she does, that makes you a rapist.  :P

So there must be A LOT of relationships out there that involve rape...  ???
(probably safer to not buy anything, which would be just fine)

Interesting argument. Rape is not the right word however.

However you tend to think women as weak and they have to take the consequences for this, without character, but I think this is not true. Character is rather spread equally over the sexes. Aren't your feeling towards women not too much feed with personal experience? Not that's that not a valid source of argueing, but you might think differently in a different situation.

You only seem to argue about weak women, without personality, being dishonest to women who actually can be your girlfriend.
