Selling ones virtue has a price

So the founder of Roxy has come out and told all about being a 'pleasure wife' of a Saudi arms dealer.

What's interesting to note is that she's on her 3rd (and hopefully last) marriage, so clearly living that lifestyle had taken a toll on her in more ways than just taking up her time.

I do give her full marks for telling her story.  Hopefully it will dissuade women in a similar situation to her from doing the same thing.  That is unless women today are more likely to treat relationships like this as transactions and attach less emotion to it.

A bit like prostitution.

The moral code wasn't dreamed up by a bunch of old men just looking to ruin the fun of everyone, it was developed over a long period of time by people who worked out that it works out better, in general, for people who follow it.

Yes, there will always be people who follow the code who don't do well and vice versa, but the moral code increasing the probability of success.  If wearing a seat belt increases the probability of you surviving a car accident, aren't you more likely to want to wear one?
