My sister was already married with children when she decided to go to law school. She worked 2-3 years to pay off the loans and then became a housewife. She regrets having gone to law school, it was something she did just to be able to say she did it but in retrospect realizes she missed out much of her daughter's childhood. You have no idea why me and any of my exes broke up.

So tell me, why are you so adamant about defending the practice of prostitution that you call someone a "neanderthal with sub-human intelligence?" Everything I said is pretty much orthodox sociology and the figures on male v. female earning potential is easily verifiable from the US Census Bureau and Bureau of Labor Statistics. There is nothing really controversial with what I said, it is accepted by probably over 80-90% of Americans. The medical establishment in every country recognizes sex work as being tremendously damaging to both a person's psychology and their physical health.

Why did you lash out like that? Are you a prostitute or have you worked as one?

Oh please, I pissed you off with that joke about being a bachelor and you've been defending your ability to get laid ever since.

No, I just enjoy drawing the anger and twisted thinking out of people like you when they attack for no good reason. Engaging you on points would be pretty foolish because you don't have anything but invective. So I just let you throw out a bunch of invective and presumptions about me until you're thoroughly discredited in the eyes of pretty much all the readers.

I grew up in a dysfunctional family on a dirt road in central West Virginia. We had a well. We chopped firewood for heat. I only saw my dad on weekends for years because he had to work out of state to provide for us. I got in fist fights at my elementary school because when I got a new pair of (not brand name) tennis shoes the welfare kids were jealous. The unemployment rate was over 30% in my county. Some of my neighbors had livestock that lived in their house. My sister and I were blessed with a natural intelligence that allowed us to claw our way out of poverty into upper middle (and in her case, upper) class American life. I live in the same town I was born and every day I see people who were not so blessed.

Tell me again how I can't get a date and don't know what it's like to be poor.

I think I've succeeded at my goal and am done now. You may have the last word.
