People always discuss the question "Would you rather have a gay son or a whore daughter?" online as if they are bad choices.
Actually they both would be pretty awesome to have if you aren't a shitty parent.
If I have a gay son, he would probably turn out to be like Peter Thiel, Milo Yiannopoulos, or Alexander the Great, who are very smart, know how to have fun, and have huge impacts on the world. He would be free to conquer the world in whatever way he wishes rather than being a loser who begs for gay marriage.
Capitalism requires both work ethics and hedonism.
Being a high end prostitute has been probably one of the best jobs in the world since the beginning of civilization. Countless kings have fallen in love with the most clever whores, who were able to optimize themselves body, mind, and soul to become some of the most powerful figures in history and mythology. Esther, Helen of Troy, Cleopatra, etc. Inferior men hate them out of bitterness and inferior women hate them out of jealousy.
They were the models of many important works of art that are now sold for millions of dollars. They were the muses for the greatest painters, musicians, and sculptors from the Renaissance to modern times.
They were among the highest paid workers in all of the US in the 1800s. They had all the modern freedoms before the feminist movement. They were gun wielding badasses who could defend themselves from potential rapists. The weren't racist and would fuck anyone who pays them and isn't a physical risk. They were damn good at judging risk because of literal "skin in the game". They were self-employed entrepreneurs who didn't need pimps and were at the forefront of fashion trends. They were the inventors of red dresses, lipsticks, and the flapper girl style. Antifragile and creative as fuck.
The feminist movement was started by communists who hated hedonism and ruined life for the anarchocapitalist prostitutes. They claim to be in favor of freedom, yet uphold puritanical rules and censorship. It set back women's rights and human rights in general for over a hundred years. Had the feminists simply gotten out of their uptight pulpits and experienced life as whores, all the gender and racial problems would have been solved 100 years ago.
Instead, we end up with Obama and Hillary Clinton, who claim to be against conservatives, but actually push a brand of party pooper conservatism that sucks all joy out of life. They literally hate fun. If you hate fun, you are going along a vector towards communist totalitarianism.
If I have a daughter, I might even encourage her to at least consider a career in prostitution. If she's smart and classy about it, she would be highly appreciated by the most valued men and would have no problem getting married if she wanted to. She would have to become a master of Stoic philosophy and know how to deal with all the bullshit in life. She would also learn to acquire an appreciation for fitness, intelligence, art, and history, and become a true polymath. It would be a far more fulfilling, varied, and enjoyable life than what most people experience out of fear and conformity.
If I have children one day, I will be happy with them as long as they are antifragile and don't become boring, one-dimensional, politically correct cubicle workers.
