Baldwretch: Yeah, I would admit that the monotony of having to repeat the same thing again and again is a big negative, but there might be forms of entertainment that we are not privy to. Entertainment is as complex as human behaviour. We would need a time machine to see how the ancients actually enjoyed themselves because public libraries or google would be of little assistance.
They did not have varieties like we do, but even then, what passes for entertainment to you might not be so much to me or to another person. I might prefer the less refined aspect of it; I might only get entertained by the outdoors; or by certain sports that has been around since medieval times like archery, golf, and the likes, but overall, yeah, I agree with you and that is why from the onset, I said you're partially right. I'm not saying that they didn't have good entertainment. I'm saying that ours is waaaaay better than theirs. Also I'm not talking about subjectivity, I'm talking about varieties, we simply have more options than them. If someone wants to pick and choose what kind of entertainment they want to enjoy, they'll have more options today than in those days. |

hilaryCU: The problem I have noticed with people who are not history inclined like you is to think life revolves around your era and those that lived in the past were scrambling for survival. Which poor man today has access to the kind of palace and gold and other precious metals Solomon has in his time. Quality wines, most beautiful women in that era which one is reputed as been one of the most lady the world has ever seen till date. Cleopatra of Egypt. Every generation has ways by which they enjoy their lives and it is all about it having the best at that point in time. So, how can you compare the quality of life of a poor man living today that don't know where his next meal will come from or having access to good health benefits to someone that enjoys the finest things of life in his days to live a productive life that made you hear about them thousands or hundred of years after they might gone.  E be like say you believe all those things you watch in Hollywood movies. Most of what you see on tv has been refined for a modern audience. You mentioned precious metals, but forgot that they are only useful if you can trade it for something useful. For instance if someone gave you a choice to choose between riding around in a golden chariot or an old Honda Civic for the rest of your life (you can't sell the golden chariot BTW) which would you choose? Which is more comfortable? Gold and silver are only shinny things that look pretty with no practical uses. About the Cleopatra part, I hope you're not confusing real life Cleopatra to movie Cleopatra? Don't you know that it takes a lot of grooming to make modern women look the way they do? There's a billion dollar cosmetic industry dedicated to making modern women look the way they do today. For example ancient women did not bathe often which means they were smelly, they did not shave often which means they were hairy, they did not have good oral hygiene which means they had smelly breath, they did did not have good skin care knowledge which meant rough skin fill with scars (korokoro). They covered their bodies with deadly chemicals such as lead because it was their form of make up. Also the beauty standards at that time were chubby/fat women as it was seen as a symbol of wealth. I've said too much, just go and browse "Ancient beauty standards". You also spoke of foods and wines. Are you aware that ancient civilisations did not have varieties of foods and drinks that we have today? If you go to an average provision store you'll find things like butter, mayonnaise, biscuits, varieties of fruit juice, varieties of flavoured milk. We also have fried foods which Solomon probably did not have. There are many things that you enjoy everyday that you take for granted. Even the common paracetamol we take everyday would have been hot cakes in ancient times as all they had were dubious cures rumoured to cure every ailment including beheading.  Hollywood only refurbishes ancient history to make them presentable to a modern audience. So when they say Cleopatra was beautiful they bring a modern super model to play the part. When they say ancient kings had a feast they bring a modern chef to prepare a modern feast. When they say that ancient civilisations had beautiful cities they bring a modern fantasy artist to design a modernised version of ancient cities. |

Baldwretch: Okay, you've asked a good question. 
When I say "a poor king" I have assumed that absolute monarchy is the norm. Also, and like I said earlier, entertainment is more nuanced than we might think.
Whether a rich or poor king, the very rich of our days do not necessarily enjoy the perks of absolute monarchy. As you know, people have the most fun when they are unbounded - a poor king in days gone-by is able to do the seemingly unthinkable and stupid things just for the fun of it - they could hire circus dancers while another set of clowns fight themselves in the background, or watch public executions while his dance troupes entertain him. They could require their subjects to give a tenth, a fifth, or even a third of anything - especially farm produce - you can only imagine the pleasure of having to reap where you did not sow, lol!
The rich of our days do not necessarily have power, and as you know, wealth and power are different things. I would argue that having power gives you the leeway to enjoy certain entertainment which money cannot provide, at least not in the 21st century.
A poor king is used to being entertained by those whom his warriors conquer and even his subjects for free, but it would cost the very rich so much to afford these today and it might be unaffordable in the long run. Not really, An absolutely powerful king may enjoy unbounded power for the short run but in the long run they will eventually get bored. There's a reason that YouTube, DStv, Netflix etc come with different channels. This is because doing the exact same thing for a long time leads to boredom. Let's compare an absolutely powerful king to an average day person. An absolutely powerful king only has few forms of entertainment: 1. Getting people to fight against themselves (gladiators). 2. Enacting plays of famous events 3. Hiring performers to perform circus acts for them. *Note that these powerful kings did not have access to their entertainment at any time they wanted I.e They could not wake up in the middle of the night to enjoy these things. On the other hand, modern average man has access to many forms of entertainment: 1. Tv/videos e.g Movies/Series, music, video games, sports, reality shows, documentaries, News. E.t.c 2. Live events such as amusement parks, concerts, vacation resorts, sports events (If you decide to go to the venue) e.t.c 3. Social Media. The modern man has a larger variety of entertainment to choose from even a poor man who has access to only an old smartphone has more options and more quality entertainment than ancient absolutely powerful kings. And best of all they can access these entertainment anytime! |

chimaxx: .. does today's man have more virgin women than Solomon? This is a different case. In Solomon's time buying and owning women was a thing. It makes more sense to compare modern day sex traffickers with king Solomon's harems and you'll see that the figures are not that different. |

Baldwretch: I just struck out the claims that are untrue.
I used a different font for your third claim because you're partially right.
TVS, video games, resorts, and the likes, but these are just a part of what we'd call entertainment.
There are many more means and aspects of entertainment, bro. Entertaining one's self is more varied and the means of getting entertained is more complex than you'd like to think. Even an extremely poor king in days gone by enjoyed some sorts of entertainment that the very rich of our days could not enjoy. Like what exactly? |

Gadafii: stvvpid people like you are the reason men don't come out to talk about their rape ordeal in the hands of women
Just listen to yourself and the person you quoted, it's nauseating that a man would put down his fellow men in this manner.
Men are raped in a daily by women in higher authority or position but they can't speak up because their are dvmb men out there that will ask him, "shey no dickk no hard"
Just look at the comments above and you see what I am pointing out.
Meanwhile women don't need to provide evidence before they are believed to be raped, mendy was recently released after over three years of legal battles, he was finally acquitted cos the rape allegation against him was false, there are thousands more of mendy out there who may never get justice or fair hearing simply because they are men and the society by default believe the accusers.
This guy should ensure he pursue this case till the end, and I hope he gets justice in the end Any man who claims to have been raped by a woman should have their manhood seized. They are not worthy of it.  |

Remind me again who brought having children into the conversation? The adult actress was talking about her personal life and then someone brought children into the conversation. I called it "Typically African Reasoning" because any small thing they will start saying "When you have children". Does life revolve around having children? Why do they like introducing having children into every conversation?  |

What’s African in the reasoning you quoted?
When JD Vance insulted women without children, did you channel same energy to call it “White American reasoning” ? No! Because you mentally enslaved and conquered. E be like say na people like you dey fill our streets with Almajiri children. Not having children is not American or white. It's common sense for only those who "want" to have kids to do so. And only those who are financially stable enough to raise children. BTW, who is JD Vance? |
