Stand Against Envy And So Against Prostitution And Pornography

Slavery is the owning of one person by another that regard the owned individual as property that gives one the right to control the use, transfer, sell, or exclude others from the use of the enslaved individual. Prostitution and pornography are limited slavery in that a women will sell her body to another individual who is usually a male to do with as he pleases with limits negotiated beforehand. According to the Dred Scot decision a slave is merchandise and therefore has no rights and so women in general are regarded by the customers that pay women for sex. These women whom envy men and devalue themselves betray their fellow women by debasing themselves in order to satisfy the baser needs of their customers. In Birgit Petersson’s paper titled “Envy and Paths to Equality” she stated the following.

Many women react to this with an idealization of the man. But the price to be paid is a repression of her own self, e.g. the way many women fear not to be chosen by a man. To avoid ending up single, these woman by all means try to live up to the current ideal of a "real women", displaying a caricature of the much too skinny model woman. In short men can "fill up" women cannot.

Instead of envying men women need to stand up and be confident that just in the fact of being women they are gifted with abilities that men can merely aspire to. These abilities that include sex and child bearing but are not limited to either and do include individual skills such art, science, math and much, much, more that can be marketed.

It is true that sex pays and can attract a partner that may or may not help around the house but is the tradeoff worth it. Do you really want to encourage men who see women as a sex object to be disposed of when they no longer need it or have found another better one.

As a women you are more likely to be the one pursued and that gives you the power to choose whom obtains the prize. Use the power wisely. Do not seek to please the man but instead seek to meet your own needs. Look for a man that will treat you special without expecting something in return. Sex is good but loyalty is better. You are the boss of yourself and your body, so do not give that power away for money or false security.

For the sake of the empowerment of women, sexual slavery and degradation through pornography and prostitution need to be outlawed and the laws enforced. To free women the lies about pornography being a form of free speech need to be stomped out as it is known that liberty is not an excuse for license.
