Outbidding the Young Man's Hand

Raymond: “If the young woman in question is hideously deformed, the can't-compete-with-porn insecurity you describe might be justified. But in general, it's safe to predict that an offer of pussy from any woman who is not aggressively ugly will easily outbid the young man's hand for the attention of his penis.”

Raymond is critiquing the previously-linked Naomi Wolf article. Raymond's piece is worth reading in full.

Bacchus, responding to Raymond, basically agreeing: “Some women object to porn the way wives object to the idea of prostitutes, and for the same reason: it means they have to use actual sex, rather than their erstwhile monopoly over the possibility of access to sexual stimulus, in order to maintain and enjoy the sexual attention of their men. Women who want to have that attention without having the actual sex for which most men will cheerfully trade it are teases, in all the negative and none of the positive senses of the word.”
