Epic thread, just pretty much read it all the way through, to be honest I'm surprised some of you (Fisto) are so passionate about this topic. I think both sides for and against make really compelling arguments and as a pragmatist I agree with parts of both arguments, but I don't think there is one DEFINITIVE correct answer that will apply to every guy and every situation. I also think it's kind of ignorant to see this issue in such black and white extremes. Either you're a basement dwelling, pimple faced, WOW playing 27 year old virgin who has to go to Asian massage parlours, or a master player who can pick up and fuck a new girl from the bar/club every week due to your supreme confidence, charm, wit, and charisma!
In reality the world doesn't always work like that, Fisto may embody the "modern day Cassanova" archetype and good for him, but he's probably one extreme of the spectrum so that may cloud his ability to understand or relate to guys who aren't walking in his shoes so to speak.
I agree with Sargon, that I don't see why a guy can't game women, but also indulge in a little p4p from time to time. It's not like every guy who occasionally does p4p absolutely can't and doesn't get laid on his own merit with regular girls, again that's black and white thinking. Sometimes a guy may do p4p because he's on a dry streak and just wants to bust a nut, maybe he's in a country like Brazil where it's very safe, comfortable, and convenient, and inexpensive to have sex with women who are hotter than he's ever been able to pull solely on game. Whatever the reason, indulging every once in a blue moon doesn't automatically define a man or eliminate his game knowledge, experience, and skill.
I "discovered" game almost 4 years ago now, and previously was pretty horrible with women (I'm still not great), I was devouring Roosh's material from the blog and was reading BANG while going on a much needed first trip to Brazil. While on that trip and with the help of the material I got from BANG, I ended up banging a cute 18 year old British chick (7) on Ilha Grange, and then a week later met a really hot mulatto woman from Sao Paulo an 8.5 on my scale that I fucked in Paraty, but even though I had just got two nice notches two weeks in a row, I still opted to visit the terma in Rio at the end of my trip, and it was one of the greatest experiences of my life.
Now first of all, to a guy like Fisto getting 2 notches in a 3 week trip would probably be an absolute "failure", he's a guy that could probably get 2 notches in less than 24 hours and with relative ease. Whereas for me, at my skill level 2 notches in 3 weeks was great at the time and still would be cool in my world. Point is everything is relative, I wish I could bang women as much as Fisto, but realistically my "game ceiling" won't allow me to ever attain his level of results and I'm okay with that.
Rant aside, getting back to the topic of p4p, even though I got two notches in the previous 2 weeks, I was horny as hell and struck out my last week in Rio, but still wanted to fuck one or two hot Brazilian chicks before I left. I went to terma L'umo in Rio and don't regret it for a second, ever heard of the old saying "don't knock it, till you tried it." For me this place embodied the ultimate male fantasy, aside from the obvious glaring flaw, that you are paying for sex.
The experience I had at the terma pretty much was the exact same as the guy describes in the OP, you pay a cover fee, get a locker key, get a bath robe, walk out into the main room, where there is DJ and dancefloor, there are probably about 10 girls all 8-10 on the scale dancing in thong bikinis and heels on the dancefloor. To your right there is a bar where you can order caiparinhas, and to the right of that are comfortable couch style lounge seating where there are probably another 10-15 girls all lounging in thong bikinis. All of these girls are hot, they range in skin color, height, ass size, tit size, almost anything you want can be obtained. You basically can have your pick from 25 of some of the hottest women you will see anywhere and can fuck them guarunteed, no problem.
Call me a pathetic loser, but I loved the experience, and for me it was a once in a life time thing, but I will surely experience it again should I go back. Now I could continue on and on with various arguments, but take what you will from what I write.
Fisto makes excellent points and to be short and blunt, I think he is right about how paying for sex *exclusively, regularly, or frequently* can really wreck a guys confidence, self esteem, and "inner game", but maybe not to the extent Fisto makes it out to be. Furthermore to reiterate what I've already said, not everything is so black and white, there can be a lot of grey. Also if you shore whores, you may not be paying them, but don't act like they aren't still prostitutes and don't get fucked by other guys for money, they could have easily swallowed a p4p guys load hours before meeting you.
