Solipsism doesn't mean @Someone hereis alone. It means, you as God is all alone. The same thing looking through your eyes is the same thing looking through mine just from a different perspective.

Yes, but people also get defensive and emotional when discussing politics and religion (not saying this is, but it falls under the same category) , that I wouldn't even use it as a criteria for a successful friendship. A plus, but not necessary. The difference to me is whether they can respect my views on these touchy subjects without letting it affect our friendship. That's where the challenge is for most.

Hmm, careful how you use the word "kinky" with me, I might get excited and chain myself up just to watch that video again. It might teach me how to make myself squirt.?‍?️

There's a friend right now I have who likes when I talk about metaphysics and the Universe to them. The only reason I do, is because they enjoy when I speak about this stuff. They used to be a business Professor, so maybe because of their background, they don't mind learning new stuff. The mind stuff is also interesting to them and they keep telling me how because of my influence, road rage has diminished and how they relate to people has significantly become less stressful to them because they are so much more aware of things they weren't aware of before. He also tells me he likes my voice and how I explain things too, so that plays a factor according to him, plus my accent is intriguing to him, even though it's not as pronounced as when I first immigrated. These are things he tells me, so there are factors at play here. He says he will not look up this stuff on his own, but likes it when we talk about it and he tells me, it is our little secret. Lol. This is how far-fetched some think this stuff is. To me it has become normal and a part of me and I integrate it in most of my everyday life. I think it's OK to bring it up to people, but once you get a hint of resistance, just leave the topic alone. People will feel your energy and sometimes, your way of being is enough to spark curiosity.

I didn't say regulating guns is a bad thing. People will find a way to commit their crime whether the weapon is regulated or not. Guns aren't the problem. People are. But I do see your point. I don't really get into too much political debates because we all have different agendas and have different perspectives and what might be right for one may not be for another and most people have a hard time looking at things from other's POV's. My view on guns, though is I think the cat is already out the bag and way too many people have access to them for it to be regulated at this point.

Sorry my mind doesn't function one way. I tend to see more of the bigger picture.

It is relevant when you see the correlation, especially in respect to your statement about regulation. We have to broaden our perspectives when we realize there are dots being connected here. A profession is used as a tool to acquire certain things in life. A gun is also a tool used to acquire things. People are using these tools. People have similarities and differences with how they achieve their goals, whatever that is. A prostitute may be selling her body to pay her rent and feed her kids. A hunter may be hunting to pay his rent and feed his kid's. Both have the same agenda using different means in which to achieve their respective goal. The regulation of the different tools we use in our society to survive may or may not result in responsible use as everybody has different agendas. The regulation of marijuana in Colorado didn't result in everybody using it responsibly, there were still horror stories. Now, you'll probably say what does marijuana have to do with this discussion. I'm using examples of how regulating people's means of survival doesn't equate to responsible use, it pretty much only results in the different respective States getting their share of the revenues from the tools people are using to achieve their goals. Bottomline, regulating prostitution will not make for a better environment only making the regulators profit from it.

The psychological damage doesn't come from where they are performing their acts. A prostitute won't become more or less damaged if they work in a less harmful environment. The damage itself would be from the work itself not the environment. If a woman becomes psychologically damaged from having sex with hundreds of men, where she has the sex doesn't matter. What determines a toxic environment VS a non-toxic environment in this case. First you have to determine that. A brothel VS the street?, Better more respectful clientele? Drug dependency? How they view sex? I mean the list goes on as to what is considered a toxic environment. The reason why I made the gun statement was to show that regulating something doesn't necessarily mean people will use it more responsibly. Regulating prostitution only benefits the respective States as far as taxes are concerned.

I agree with this. Only thing is, they can't see how relevant most of the stuff IS relevant to their everyday experience as everything is entangled with everything else.

Take out the "too".

No need to do that, they'll willingly watch that.

I wasn't referring to souls being sold. That's a cliché I will never understand. Souls cannot be sold, Souls are untouched.

Regulating guns didn't result in less crimes.

That's not really what I meant. What I meant was, prostitutes aren't necessarily psychologically damaged because of the work they do, but may have already been psychologically damaged before going into it, and we tend to not realize how many non-prostitutes are psychologically damaged. That's what I meant by emphasis. The job may not have caused it but may be the result of it. Let's try to focus on the deeper issues why so many people hold on to trauma and not how they act because of it. Hope that's clear.

Watching.....interesting so far.

I know right. I used to say to myself while watching his videos how wide-ranged his vocabulary was and his usage of language. So versatile.

All of this is just speculation, generalization and limiting beliefs. Nothing is set in stone. It's how you view yourself and the world that matters. Your perceptions. Interpretations. Also from what State of Consciousness are you conducting these behaviours from. Damaged goods to you may not be damaged goods to someone else. There are lots of situations in life where people are selling themselves unaware of this and you can use anything as a tool to either better yourself or hurt yourself. Most of us don't see the bigger picture and are looking at the world from a limited perspective.

How can God not be God

Lonely people aren't looking to violate. Rapers are. Stop this nonsense. The only dot that has been joined is your toxic belief system. Lots of people are broke, they don't think to go rob a bank. A lonely enraged Incel, is an enraged human being who is angry about something other than the fact that he can't get laid, if he decides to rape. Lots of incels don't think about rape. Rape is not about the lack of sex. What about lonely women then. Do they decide to go rape. Stop this.

You have a British sense of humor. I like

I like this

Please don't encourage him to believe that lonely people go out and rape. Too many stereotypes, we don't need any more. Rape is not about loneliness. Everyone of us will feel lonely at some point in our lives. Doesn't mean rapists feel lonely. Most are women haters. Most crave power. There is no correlation.

Stop that. Loneliness doesn't lead to rape. You have to understand that people recognize the options available to them and they are always ready to exercise that. Lonely people go out looking for companionship, not to go rape. Rape is not about loneliness or sex its about power.

Everybody feels lonely at different times in their life. Doesn't mean you need an escort to fulfill that need. Some guys just enjoy that while some prefer video games

Same thing as pick up only thing you're not being used, for men's pleasure you're getting paid to provide a service
