Weird that this guy blocked me, but anyway:
Attraction to the person I’m with is an organic part of who I am.
Most *normal* people feel this way.
If I go on a trip with a dude it’s because I’m crazy about him – intimacy is part of that – not because I want to trade my body. pic.twitter.com/y24aJ0foqC

Natalia has the better view of this. It’s only transactional if you view it that way. But if I’m in a romantic relationship with someone, even if it’s short term, I certainly do have the expectation of sex being involved. Why would it not? And that’d be true even if she were paying for the trip. It’s absolutely insane the doofy crap people believe now.
It’s not that I just want the woman for her pussy (nor that she should just want me for my dick/wallet), but the point is that I could — and often do — go on the same trip with my platonic friends just as easily.
If the expectation is a non-platonic relationship, everything goes well but there is no sex, you’re damn right I’m going to be upset. And that’s not because it’s a transaction but because it’s like if I offered you some pie with whipped cream and I gave you an uncooked potato instead. You’re for sure gonna be miffed. And you should be. Same thing here. To Gen Z and associated other doltish clowns, everything is about power when it should be just about having fun.
Which they are against, firmly.
