      Think a little less directly, meeting people’s needs vs bombing them. In the US, ~6 hours of “defense” spending could put everyone in the country on food stamps for a year

        That works, somewhat.

        But if you tell a person “I’m going to fuck you, calm down” they just call the police, or deck you in the face.

          Meanwhile the European countries with legalized brothels/prostitution dont spend enormous amounts of money on their own defense budget and are chill af to visit as a tourist.

      Yeah, we have 5000 plus years of culture engrained into us about male control of women, so women using sex to pacify males, probably won’t work.
