This topic is usually considered as a moral issue, rather than as a resource issue, and often people do not think through the implications of their stances.

And since women only use sex as a means to an end, and exchange it with men; and since further, sex has been explicitly devalued to something cheap, well, hm. I submit that if you propose a model of human sexual behavior, and it positively forbids the existence of a whole class of people who nonetheless actually exist, then maybe there&#8217;s a problem with the theory?
