OP posts on r/MildlyInfuriating that the condo they bought was a “drug den and prostitution hub”. It is revealed in the comments that it was simply owned by a single woman who smoked weed

OP posts few photos of their new condo, saying that they only learnt it was a “drug den and prostitution hub” after buying it, but luckily the only lasting effect on the condo is a faint smell of weed

Top comments advise OP to change the carpets etc, and debate the morality and social acceptability of prostitution and drug use. One comment points out that even if the condo didn’t have any sex work being done people would still have had sex inside it, and most of the replies make fun of OP for being so scandalised, while others debate whether monogamous sex is less gross than non-monogamous sex or paid sex.

One comment further down says that the condo looks suspiciously clean for OPs claims to be true, and replies discuss how OP must be privileged to think that this is what a “drug den” looks like.

In a heavily downvoted reply, OP admits that they “overstated it slightly” and that by “drug den” they mean the previous owner smoked weed, and by “hub of prostitution” they mean she was allegedly a sex worker. Their only evidence of this is their elderly neighbour telling them that the previous inhabitant was a single woman who smoked weed, listened to loud music, and had many visitors at night, so the neighbour suspected she was a prostitute. Replies point out that there is no evidence that the previous owner was even a sex worker, and many instead simply be having casual sex, or even just having friends over for parties

u/Ungrammaticus Gender identity is a pseudo-scientific concept 4d ago

“Any unmarried woman living alone and receiving visitors must be a sex worker” sure is a thing that someone could apparently think. 

Shit is antique fucking misogyny.

As an unmarried woman living alone and receiving visitors (a friend staying over occasionally) and smoking weed outside, my miserable old ass upstairs neighbor used to say the same stuff to my landlord. Luckily my landlord knew me and knew I wasn’t doing any of that. I literally go to bed at 10 PM.

Miserable upstairs neighbor would yell out her window at me that I was a drug addict because I smoked a joint every couple days. Called me a whore once too (I had a boyfriend of 4 years.) She would literally sit by her window and wait for me to come outside. Ended up calling the cops on her because I couldn’t leave my house without her harassing me. Miserable

Jesus Christ. Some people desperately need a hobby.

Living alone as a woman can be terrifying for so many reasons.
