Ladies, is it a red flag if a man uses this specific terminology to comment on modern dating dynamics?
His commentary was basically about too much easy sex making men lazy, which is partially true not considering there were always lazy alcoholic men who needed to be controlled by bosses, sergeants, police, and priests... often it was nothing more than his reputation or the omnipresent wrath of god making him act decent enough, because surely spending 25 cents at the brothels was not that hard... but it's something about that term itself.
Tbh it sounds disgusting to me. Markets are for selling and purchasing provisions, commodities and livestock. I am not a product, not a whore, not a breeder and not for sale. I know it's a popular term among red pill dudes who are just nasty pieces of work. Maybe it's leaked into popular lexicon but I cant see how it can be interpreted any other way?
It’s redpill language. Block and cold shoulder him, he’s a creep.
He just showed you the lens in which he views relationships and women—nothing more than an economic marketplace trade.
You're (rightfully) disgusted.
Listen to your instinct. It's block o'clock
Thanks for the confirmation to everyone who replied! There was an FDS podcast that used this term in the title so I wondered if it's reasonable to use in any context, but I pretty much knew the answer.
Edit: Y'all it's hardly been 12 hours since our conversation and he already asked if I want to use my paid professional skills (referred to as: my 'creativity' & no mention of labour marketplace value) to help him with his business. Can't make this shit up. 🤣🤣🤣
This terminology is twisted.
Even if you're 100% all in on thinking about relationships in "pill" terms it's just so low class and gross to talk about it out loud, especially to a prospective romantic partner.
The only people who would have actual "Sexual Marketplace Value" are high value men which is not what these incels are lmao.
