Repeating myself here, but just because you seem to struggle with an absolute and universal fact, because you project yourself personally into a, as you weirdly stated, doesn't make it less valid.
And why do keep sticking to rape. It's one of many possibilities to get laid. By money, by time and effort, by accident, luck or even forced means. Just because YOU couldn't AND also live in some theocratic hellhole where one couldn't even buy it, doesn't mean the guy next door couldn't. Or the majority of the world. Some rare exceptions where multiple points combine to a negative, does not invalidate a general rule. The larger part of a bell-curve sure can, in whatever way. Easier for some, harder for others, but possible. Otherwise I would wonder why earth is so crowded with us humans.
Finding real romantic love though. Can't buy it. And it's also that one single thing that gets worse the more money you have. Be rich, end up alone. Or fake being poor until you do. Also, for the vast majority of the world, this commodity is ultimately harder to find.
BTW, here health insurance even pays for a hooker for disabled people, should they be unable otherwise to find sex. Regularly. At it is a mental health issue. And there are even specially hired prostitutes of both sexes just for that. And if you're too poor, then state pays for insurance and still get the hookers. So not even poor, ugly, disabled and being tiny would stop you. Love though, probably chances converge to zero.
You are absurdly cynical about the non existence of love. Most of us don't have to pretend to be "poor enough" to find love, nor do we have the kind of funding to purchase sex "wherever and whenever" we feel like it. You talk like you're wealthy and handsome like Brad Pitt that you think of women as golddiggers because they're throwing themselves at you, and you're so fucking PRIVILEGED that you don't even believe that the vast majority of the rest of us don't live like you when we tell you.
Most of us have roughly the same number of sexual partners as we find people who love us, because that's how it works for ordinary men.
Most of us don't have to worry about random women "of course she'll have sex with me, but is she just after me for my looks or my money?"
We are not the same, and most people don't live like you at all. You're just wrong.
And yet again you talk about you and me, while I simply made a point about the rarity of two commoditites compared. It doesn't matter at all if I'm "brad Pitt" or not. It alters my personal abilities and won't change the point. And you still totally fail to grasp the point at all. Having the options to find sex "whenever and whereever" doesn't mean you get laid three times day. You COULD be laid. Or maybe not you because your country hates humans, but that is the exception in civilized worlds. Given enough money you probably also could, as laws are made for the poor.
Also I never ever said love is non-existant. It's just nowhere being easier to find than sex as there is no option to buy or otherwise squire it without the other person actually feeling the same. Two people feeling the same for each other is ultimately more rare then two people just finding each other attractive enough to fuck.
It's so simple. From love, sex will most likely always follow. From sex, love COULD follow.
You can dance around my or your personal ability likeever you want, it doesn't change the facts. Just because logical arguments don't fit into your personal experience, won't change them.
Try visiting some of our train stations. You'll have to actually fight off people offering you a blowjob for 5 bucks. Even broke as fuck you could afford that. If one would be inclined to exploit drug junkies.
