Chapter 187: Chapter 187 – Disadvantage

"That's for sure. Speaking about chasing after, don't you think we guys have too much of an advantage in the dating business? We're the ones deciding if something is going to happen or not in the end."

"And that's for the best. Can you even imagine if that wasn't the case? Women would just pick men randomly on the streets and rape them on the spot. Nah, it needs to stay like this because it's simply impossible to trust women with this."

Alright, he had a point. This was exactly why he wanted to discuss more seriously with someone, even if that was just a teenager almost the same age as him. Now, if considering a different scenario where both sides would be very willing, wouldn't the whole world transform into his life? People would just find any reason to have sex all the time and it was unknown where humanity would have gone in those conditions.

"Makes sense. By the way, did you hear about the new laws introduced by the government?"

"You bet. We're finally getting more rights and safety for ourselves. If women are found discriminating against us, that would be considered an offense. Now, we really have a chance to build a serious career. I know it'll take some time before this is properly respected and applied but it's a very good first step."

That was something Benjamin had looked into and things were much more complicated than this in this world. However, that wasn't what he wanted to focus on in this discussion.

"What about the things about prostitution and brothels?"

Ray looked away a little and didn't immediately answer. He was still a middle schooler boy, after all, and this wasn't the sort of topic he would usually talk about.

"Thanks! I'll see you later."

He finished his breakfast quickly and immediately left the house. As soon as he was gone, Kiana gave a big smile while looking at Benjamin first and then at Chloe, who grinned back at her. Olivia had a weird face too, which was hard to decipher.

"Ben, join us for today!"

"Sure, let's do that."

"Yes!"

Kiana was abnormally happy, something which didn't escape her mother's eyes.

"Ben, don't let them do anything stupid, okay? Girls, you better behave today."

They all nodded but their smiles didn't relent in the least and it was obvious the words had gone in one ear and out the other. Halle could only hope that the combination of Benjamin and Olivia would be enough to stop the two little troublemakers.

After breakfast, she went back to work and Kiana invited everyone to her room, saying she wanted to show something to Benjamin. There was no way the mischievous girl would have anything normal for him but he decided to follow anyway, curious about whatever she had in store for him. In the house, Halle's room was on the first floor while Kiana and Ray's rooms were on the second floor. Once they were all up there, Kiana closed the door and locked it, which was already very suspicious, only to take her phone out and show him a specific application.

"Tadaa! Look at this, Ben. It's a newly released hypnosis app, they say it works incredibly well. Do you want to try it?"

As expected, it was nothing good.
