Not only that, but also gay men — for some reason — on average tend to be much more psychologically invested than straight men in the belief that they can attract a much better looking or much better physically built guy without having to pay for it. It might be because straight men are raised to believe that a man pays for the woman when he is interested (drinks, dinner dates, expensive engagement ring, gifts, trips, etc), whereas that dynamic for gay men as members of the same gender is only determined by who one is attracted to (or who is the more desirable or attractive). Some gay men I have encountered believe that paying for sex, dates or companionship is only for those who cannot get those things on their own, and so they won’t do it because to them, that would mean acknowledging defeat. But most straight men aren’t caught up in that dynamic, so to them, going to bordellos and paying for sex is just an easier way to meet some hot lounge lizard at a bar, pay for her drinks and dinner, and pretend not to be bored with her conversation so that he can get some new pussy.
