RPU - Episode 7: The Sexual Marketplace - 7PM Eastern
Tonight the team defines the sexual marketplace in their ongoing series of fleshing out the sidebar material. This is a crucial episode as it lays out the foundation for the next portion of the course in which they focus on improving sexual market value (SMV).
The Sexual Marketplace is what we've come to describe the dating market in which men seek to acquire sex from women, typically in exchange for resources such as:
- Time
- Monetary gifts
- Improved status (by association)
- Attention
- Validation
- Procreation
