Wow holy shit this comparison is so absurd it makes me think your reasoning has been compromised by your financial incentives

No, its not absurd, but you'd have to have followed Aella for some time to get what she's pointing at here. She's saying men would pay for a therapist and pay for porn/sex and if those services come from the same person, all the better. =P

The implications of it are hella controversial though, I'd give you that. But that's her whole shtick.

I mean equivocating someone who went through 4 years education and specific training in trying to help others with someone who "sits there and nods and asks basic questions" is just really preposterous.

I used to think therapists were authoritative/trained, but I now have a very low opinion of them. I think, in general, most therapists are probably broken people who got a rubber stamp of a degree and they actually have little ability to reason about minds independently.

i came to this conclusion after trying out therapists in my area when I needed help with a problem. They all were absolutely useless and I was honestly shocked at how unskilled and how many basic mistakes they were making. I was like 'wow, their certification means nothing.'

>I also think in person sex work is *way* more therapeutic (and probably often more beneficial than therapy) than online sex work I buy that in person beats online. I would be surprised but am open to the possibility of it also being more beneficial than therapy.

> in a way most OF girls can't is this the main value OF girls are providing? Online sex therapy as a service? (even if that's not what they call it?)

Approving attention from an attractive woman is the service they're providing. It's not really sex therapy, in that most girls aren't like... actively working with you through problems, but imo is more analogous to like... getting through your day by taking asprin.

An alternative analogy is schizophrenics getting through their day by smoking a lot. Turns out tobacco has mild anti-psychotic properties, so basically when schizophrenics smoke they are often self-medicating.
