The Plight of Male Prostitutes

In respect to prostitution, boys are sexually abused at an earlier age than girls. When they enter prostitution, they also enter it at an earlier age than girls (8-10 vs 12-18 for girls).

However, male prostitutes are not always gay. They may also be bisexual and heterosexual, even if their main customers are male.

Indeed, male prostitution do not perform gay sex. Usually they are receivers of anal sex.

Yes, they are sodomized.

And that means that male prostitutes are more at-risk than female prostitutes.

Why? Because girls and women can get out of prostitution before age 18.

This is because male prostitutes do not want to risk how the STate treats them if they try to get out of the industry before age 18.

Usually this leads to the chaos of foster care.

Foster care usually will violate the rights of male prostitutes to a stable and secure home since most foster parents do not understand male prostitution.

What we need are safe homes for male prostitutes who want out.

But it won't happen in a society whose feminists will object to this misogynist and sexist rant.

Ergo we need an egalitarian society that supports gender equality transition. The privileges of feminism versus the privileges of the patriarchy only continues an unnecessary gender war.

My Hope for the Future

Overall, reduction of oppression of women of color.This may be done by egalitarian means.

Elimination of child neglect and child abuse.

Elimination of the glass ceiling for women, or better, women executives competing on the same level of men, due to men's enlightened attitude, throwing off patriarchy's disempowerment of both men and women.

Discovering evidence to counter the effect of religion as disempowering women by making Buddhist practice less of a religion and more of a lifestyle change. For Buddhism has shown that when practiced outside of patriarchies in an egalitarian society, demonstrates that Buddhist women benefit as much as men do.

As well, I believe that less oppression and sexism actually occurs in society than it did 100 years ago.

However, neither men nor women should be the privileged sex, as both feminism and patriarchism promise.

Rather, an egalitarian society without glass ceilings, oppression of women and of men, and safety of boys and girls from harm is the ideal.

As well, it's time to change myself for the better to ensure these hopes are put into action first through speech and followed through with action.

Sex Sells! A Commentary on the Use of Women in Consumer Marketing




Here is a propaganda piece in Spanish. The youtube comment that rankles me is this one:
"Why do you think women have breasts? Why do you think they flash them all the time. It's advertisement."

No, actually in certain circles of post-modern descendants of Roman culture it's expected of women to dress like this. You will see this in Portugal, Spain, Italia, Romanian and even Greece with culturally distinct flavors of it across Europe and the Americas, especially in the US, Latin America, Central America, and South America.

A careful search of Youtube for TV broadcasts in the US, Mexico, Nicaragua, Belize, Guatamala, Panama, Brasil, Colombia, Argentina, Uruguay and other Latin American countries tends to confirm this.

It is actually a form of propaganda called marketing that attracts men more effectively to television based on their focus on women who dress in such a manner.

Since the objective of media outlets is to generate revenue from advertising,which is the most popular form of marketing today helping corporations to manufacture consumers from willing viewers of radio and television.

For advertising is consumer marketing, and subtle forms of the motto, "Sex Sells" are proven daily.

All you need is one picture.

In the case of the woman I chose to focus on, Natalia Domestico is a reporter for Noticias En Vivo, a Spanish language TV news for KRCA in Los Angeles, California.


KRCA is owned by Liberman Broadcasting, a media company operating out of Burbank, California. It caters mainly to the Spanish-speaking community of greater LA and Houston but is affiliated with Vida TV, which targets the Spanish-speaking immigrant community, HTTV and STV which targets the Mandarin-speaking Chinese community.

Since the 1990s and early 2000s, Liberman Broadcasting has expanded into Dallas and San Diego.

However, this is but a Latino macrocosm that extends into the countries mentioned above. I have also included Italy, Greece and Romania to acknowledge the post-modern descendants of the ancient Roman culture which enriched the language and traditions of these nations and the Romantic Language macrocosm.

SEXISM IN A NUTSHELL

Sexism is found in a male-dominated culture which promotes a paternalistic ideology that puts men first, above women and children.

However, it depends on the situation. If I rib a close relative about getting married and "pop" some kids, I try to quickly say, "Just kidding!"

In a democracy, a bunch of politicians would enact laws to protect women, children, family and men by vote but commoners such as you or I cannot get elected. The lucky candidate must be upper middle class. Sexism is kept in check by laws which uphold human rights laws regarding women.

In the family, nobody is elected. Two people make love, and within 4 months, she's showing. Because sexism is learned behavior, usually it's done to fit in with an out crowd.

Yet in an equalitarian society, each gender, both young and old, take turns dominating the other out of fun, not spite. >:)

Why I Don't Date

1) Better to conquer oneself than conquer a thousand men.

2) I value peace of mind by the sublimation of sexual desire through meditation.

3) The first traumatic film in Grade One that I experienced was about a child molester but showed the setting and succeeded in having me only associate wooded areas with danger. Today, kids these days have faith in all the myths about "psychos" from Hollywood.

4) Because of 1) overconsumption requires eating one meal a day, substituting diet beverage for alcohol and pop, and walk a mile 3-4 times a week each day or the equivalent at the gym.

5) Actually most people today get boring the more they drink because they don't remember any of the good things I did for them when they were sober. I can count the number of people with more exciting stories to tell me and who will never over-drink ever again on both hands. The number of people who were drinkers and led interesting lives I know is two: one of my friends and my Dad (except my Dad died of old age).

6) Women can either go lesbian, do it solo with their BOB or find someone better.

7) What a woman calls independent living means no men; what a man calls independent living means sleeping when he wants, washing when he wants, and being able to keep a beer can collection. What I call independent living means adequate rest, cleanliness and living within my means.

8) I've yet to meet a woman who could drink the same amount of booze I can without being paranoid of too much drinking. If I had no intent of acting anything other than a gentleman these past years, then I should remember being jailed for it. Since I have no such intentions drunk or sober, then frankly ladies, your paranoia about drinking with men is only emphasized by the "mistakes" you have made while drunk. Because I had no such intentions all along, I have decided being sober is a wiser choice at my age.

9) There are too many errors of judgement in dating. You rarely get a second chance when you make a mistake unless you admit that you did err and wish to correct your ways.

10) "Do you like children?" a fellow castmate asked WC Fields. Fields weaved around a bit, and then slowly slurred, "With catsup..."

I once read a book by some Irish author which proposed that children of the poor be well fed like domesticated animals and then slaughtered to end the Irish potato famine. This satire actually implied that had the poor of Ireland not been busy procreating, that the famine would not have occurred.

Well, we do not have that problem today. Children are becoming a scarce commodity these days because people are actually procreating less than they did 300 years ago.

Ah, the joys of compulsory education! Stuff your brain full of unrelated facts for 12 straight years, and the first one learned is "women no longer really need men to raise their children" and the second one learned is, "chemistry is the code word for a lot of failed experiments, some good experiences, and so much potential".

Even so, IMHO a few men and women have forgotten all about love by the time they are my age, mainly because of the propaganda from the media. Indeed, a diet of soap operas and romantic novels contributes to this myth. It goes great with the one about men only having egos, which isn't true according to my research on psychology. Women have egos, just like men do, except just like every other aspect of the female mind, they internalize it. Indeed, women tend to over-analyze using their egos in ways that no males can, and then some. Though, men are quite capable of using their egos like they don't have their manhood handy.

So that's why I don't date. I am content to maintain peace of mind through mindful practice.

Life Roles (poem)

Almost from the time they are born,
girls are trained to take care of children.
They're given baby dolls, dress them up
and pretend to feed them just like Mom.
At the same time, boys play sports,
play with video games and high-tech things.
Then they both grow up and fall in love,
only to raise a family together.
The woman wants the husband to share
equally in the chores and everything,
forgetting that she played with dolls
while he played with video games.
So if you want men to share equally
in their future lives with women,
don't you think we should let them
role-play with the girls and look after
their dolls while they go to work?

Poor Diet Kills

**I am using two personal examples because I knew these people. Though I regret having to add personal details where I see fit, hopefully that gives you a more complete picture...


1. My Father
My father used to eat the most unhealthiest food, basically meat and potatoes with gravy and lots of salt and the occasional beer.

He also would respond to defiance to his authority with anger, and took delight emotionally abusing my mother.

Yet he also would have social anxiety sometimes.

Then he had a stroke in 1995 and died on May 2, 2007, age 86. He gradually faded away over 12 years.

Yet the emotional abuse continued because my mother opted for home care until he requested he be placed in a hospice.

My suspicion is that he may have been depressed all along, since men display depression differently from women.

The social anxiety and the aggression are clues that possibly diet played a role in his mental health. anger management issues are associated with depression in men.

2. My Best Friend

To add to this refutation that a poor diet does not affect a person's disposition, let me give you a brief history of my best friend.

My best friend passed away May 27, 2006, age 52, from pancreatic cancer. He'd been diagnosed circa 2004.

A recovered alcoholic, he'd stopped drinking circa 1991.

Between 1996 and 2004, I can recall that he had a sweet tooth and smoked alot, but had cut down A LOT since his heart attack in 2004.

The meals he ate contained meat and potatoes, and he explained that well-cooked vegetables cannot be determined by sight alone, he'd always been shy of cooking them.

Clinical depression is associated with pancreatic cancer, and, when the cancer impairs the pancreas' ability to secrete insulin, diabetes -- which is associated with schizophrenia.

In the case of my friend, I suspect that because he relied on alcohol for most of his calories for most of his adult life and loved sugar, that both substances mainly and possibly exposure to industrial solvents, including the use of isopropyl alcohol to relieve joint pain, and the use of painkillers may have contributed to both the heart attack and accelerated the development of pancreatic cancer.

He also had anger management issues especially with respect to social communication. Yet he evolved from having a god complex to a philosophy of "it's my way or the high way" mixed with "only the most loyal should endure my final moments".

And endure his final moments I did.

In retrospect, both my parents liked him a lot because he was sociable.
