So here we are, in just another hellhole created by Big Mining, where law and order is half-privatized, half-non-existent; where there’s no relief but crappy beer and short betel buzzes.

lovin the casual mention of how women can't go out at night without being raped with absolutely no follow up or any concern whatsoever.
also that was a pretty shit article by any standard, needed more about barrick mining imo

he also wrote the david foster wallace piece, which was fun but upon reflection kind of scares me. what does it mean when you can read thousands upon thousands of words that you despise? dude has like an encyclopedic knowledge of the mcsweeney's crew

repost this in GBS imo
Long story short we went to her place and she was like "hey can you give the owner 500 pesos to spend the night" which didn't seem odd to my drunken brain. Maybe it was like a dorm or something and you had to bribe the landlord, or maybe it was like a hotel. Looking back it was most likely a prostitute, and I got some kind of infection the next day on my knee and 2 toes which freaked me the fuck out. I used protection and got tested and I'm clean, and I also had a few more girls while I was there but that was my close call with a prostitute in the Philippines. The End.

as long as you are attractive enough to get a one night stand normally, then i don't think using a prostitute is immoral, since you aren't exactly coercing someone into an act that they would otherwise object.

you mean a man and a woman having a one night stand after they met, for a few minutes to an hour, at a bar?

never forget how absolutely vile men are, how any men will espouse feminism for as long as it takes for them to get laid and drop it as soon as it poses any inconvenience, the same men that talk about class war and exploitation but think nothing of exploiting the women around them and have a litany of excuses at the ready.

it's actually a lot easier to get laid being an overt misogynist so those guys really need to change their game up. someone should notify them.

alright, man, sheesh, i didn't realize you were an enlightened feminist and knew exactly what every woman really wanted, because they themselves don't actually know. good thing you are here to tell them, maybe ytou should get a megaphone and shout in the middle of timesquare so women no longer get confused about their hopes and desires in life

sexual relationships founded on genuine mutual respect and without the harmful underpinnings of patriarchy and all that are certainly possible but i really doubt one night stands fit this criteria
