Sexual economics theory

Categories: Incelology

'''Sexual Economics Theory''' or '''SET''' is a field in academia which evaluates everyday human sexuality as comprised of buyers and sellers.<ref>http://halley.exp.sis.pitt.edu/comet/presentColloquium.do?col_id=13028</ref> The principle claim of SET is that [[Femoid|female]] sexuality has a higher price than [[Men|male]] sexuality.<ref>https://www.researchgate.net/publication/317866484_Myths_of_Sexual_Economics_Theory_Implications_for_Gender_Equality</ref>

A central aspect of SET is that men desire [[paternity assurance|certainty about paternity]], hence women do not only sell [[sex]], but ''the promise'' of faithfulness.<ref>Baumeister, R. F., Reynolds, T., Winegard, B., & Vohs, K. D. (2017). Competing for love: Applying sexual economics theory to mating contests. Journal of Economic Psychology, 63, 230–241. [[https://doi.org/10.1016/j.joep.2017.07.009 Abstract]]</ref> Conversely, men can sell their resources as women have evolved to desire them due to their high dependence on men during human [[evolution]].<ref>https://incels.wiki/w/Scientific_Blackpill_(Supplemental)#Women_were_historically_predominantly_involved_in_cooking_and_they_never_dominated_men</ref>
==Founding academic texts==
The founding academic texts of SET are "Cultural Suppression of Female Sexuality" by [[Roy Baumeister|Roy F. Baumeister]] and Jean M. Twenge (2002),<ref>https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/abs/10.1037/1089-2680.6.2.166?journalCode=rgpa</ref> and "Sexual Economics: Sex as Female Resource for Social Exchange in Heterosexual Interactions" by Roy F. Baumeister and Kathleen D. Vohs (2004).<ref>https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1207/s15327957pspr0804_2</ref>
=="Political bias" and "Commodifying women"==
While not taking direct inspiration, SET holds the same basic principle about sexual relations as the earlier Marxist book [[Women As Sex Vendors (book)|''Women As Sex Vendors'']]. This contradicts narratives in the blogosphere about SET being a 'capitalist' ''framework'' for viewing sexual relations. It is fairly politically neutral as it is an attempt at being observational rather than prescriptive.
==Incel Wiki==
A lot of this wiki borrows from SET or accidentally reaches the same conclusions. Particularly language about the [[principle of least interest]], female monopoly on sex, men [[Sex drive|desiring sex more than women]], female self-commodification, female demand of [[Betabux|wealth for sex]], and female incitement of each others [[hypergamy]] to raise the price of sex in a [[pussy cartel]].
