      4/ The idea, if you haven’t encountered it is treating sex like an issue of supply and demand. Men want sex more ergo, women set the price.

      5/ Long story short: Women hold out for $PRICE while dudes try to bargain it down. This, as you might imagine, doesn’t go over well.

      9/ The “market price of sex” is predicated on the idea that it’s strict supply and demand where masculine desire sets the price.

      10/ The “supply” is “controlled” by women, for whom sex is cheap, therefore profit from setting the market price high as it will go.

      11/ In fact, you’ll see folks on Incel forums talking about how to deflate the market value. Usually via sexbots and MGTOW bullshit.

          13/ The flaw in the thinking is that the “price” of sex is 0 for women. They just have to lay there and think of England, etc.

          14/ Except it isn’t. If we accept the market value metaphor (ick), the “profit” for women is razor thin b/c the *cost* to them is damn high.

          These men basically admit they are worthless and instead of owning that, try to destroy women's sense of worth as well.
