82VD November 9, 2012 at 3:38 am The fact that Lysistrata is a fiction rather than a historical fact does not strike me as relevant.

That’s a fascinating statement considering that I cannot imagine you would take seriously an economic plan based on replacing nuclear and coal-fired plants with harnessed unicorns.

Even if it had actually happened in 411 BCE we would hardly be able to extrapolate and predict its success today.

Read Thucydides on revolution and tell me that. It was written around the same time and is vastly disturbing to the ability to believe in the idea of human progress.

We have a marketplace with supply and demand for sex. If we restrict the supply of sex, the price for sex will go up. We don’t need the history books to grasp the truth of this.

Now this is reliably true.

Lysistrata will not work because single women would not abide by the rules of the cartel. If they did, however, there is no question but that men would line up with marriage proposals to get sex, just as they did before the price of sex plummeted.

As is this. The problem is that women are unlikely to abide by sexual rules that are not violently enforced. Which is why the long term societal consequence is more likely the burqah than the brothel.

Well, actually there very much IS a question indeed. What you’re forgetting is that before the Sexual Revolution, women were trained from childhood by their parents, the church and society to display worth as potential wives, to internalize virtues that men seek in long-term partners. The complete opposite applies today. “We just need to shut our legs, and men will finally shape up!” is nothing but a common female fantasy rooted in delusions and ignorance rather than reality.
