Okay, maybe Mike Johnson is a competent parliamentarian.

There's actually someone I know who's pretty deeply involved in these issues and works with sex workers (which I'm using as an umbrella term) to improve their lives. (She supports full decriminalization as a temporary measure on the road to eventual abolition of the sex industry and I don't, so it's not as if I'm parroting her opinions on this wholesale.) Her understanding is that it does in fact have to do with men being brought up to feel entitled to or like they're owed sex in a way that women aren't (which doesn't necessarily mean that that's the only reason). I don't really know enough to commit to this point myself, but Antonio's not the only one making it--although I think he should probably limit himself to talking about how men are socialized without pontificating about female socialization he can't possibly have experienced.
