GODDDDD NOW IM SADDDDD
Dude. You were corrected. Repeatedly. You just chose to ignore all the corrections. But sure, I'll humor you againI'm going to have to state this very boldly now, because you missed it the last time: I'm assuming this is what you think, and I also assume you will correct me if I assumed wrong.
I say this because I stated "I think our whole discussion right now comes down to the following:" earlier, and you immediately attacked me.
Wrong. Here's the actual clashing assumptions:This exchange just now made me realize we're arguing based on two different assumptions somehow:
Mine: The people of the time were simply taught what they were taught about the social norms, and they gave it no further thought, either because they didn't care, or had other things to worry about (like surviving in general).
Yours: People at the time were able to realize that what they were doing was wrong, but decided to go with it anyway because they either didn't want to admit to themselves that what they were doing was wrong, or because they enjoyed power.
"Courtesans *clap* Are *clap* Not *clap* Slaves. Sex was merely one of the many things they did to entertain their guests. It was considered a respected profession at the time and something you would legitimate dream of becoming. It's unfortunate that the value of a courtesan will quickly evaporate if they get pregnant, but that's the risk they take in exchange for the lavish lifestyle they enjoy."
