        The instance has nothing to do with anything, at least in my case.

        To me it’s just an ethical thing. Hookups to me seem like a sad and worthless concept. Might as well masturbate instead. No fun that lasts, no connection that makes it special at all. The sex just loses all its meaning

      It has nothing to do with prostitution. There’s no money involved, and nobody gains anything material.

      I believe the idea is to just hook up, but with people you know and like, instead of strangers. Safer, probably cheaper, and maybe even beneficial outside of the obvious.

        Prostitution has nothing to do with an exchange of goods, does it?

        Imo recreational sex in general is prostitution.

          Prostitution is the practice or act of engaging in sexual activity in exchange for money, food, rent, or other items of value. It is also widely referred to as commercial sex or sex work.

          Nothing in this lines up with a FWB relationship or recreational sex. Wtf other kind is there, do you fuck purely for reproductive purposes?

        I’ve had a lot of fwb and this is pretty much exactly why. Trust, safety, added benefit of learning a person sexually so both parties are fully satisfied.
