I’m gonna be honest, I’m not asking for a friend, I’m asking for myself. Our daughter (24) married this man (65) in September. She herself stated money was the main reason, and he knows it but it doesn’t bother him. Both my husband & I are having a very hard time getting used to the idea.
Tangent but how the fuck our we in a world where we can lock ourselves in with someone for financial gain, we have tiny computers in our pockets, we can travel the world in a matter of hours, we have set foot on the fucking moon. yet we are chained by capitalism.
We sell our buddies intimately, we give the largest chunk of our waking life to employers. We are fucking slaves. Knelt for our masters.
But the worst part is we accept it. Lion share of comments are praising her, a few are pointing towards a kink which if that the actual reason then what ever. I feel sorry for her, not pity but the fact she is potentially degrading herself/selling her intimacy for a the semblance of dignity in a world which should afford us all dignity.
All brought to you by capitalism. Is it really such a surprise that money rules everything?
If you can’t find something better(because it works and people won’t give it up to go back) then why would things change?
Everyone on the bottom is forced to see what those on top have. Especially in this modern age.
“Why do i have to sacrifice when I’m barely surviving, when those people have way more than ill ever have?”
For the greater good right? Well its become bought sold and corrupted and is now The Greater Good©®™
Life is now a product because it was never prevented from being more than that.
