That you believe wage labor is exploitative is clear. What's not clear is what you mean by exploitative. Is Brian exploiting me and my contributions because he has a penis and I do not? That's an imbalance. Are all imbalances exploitative? If so, how do you determine who is exploiting who? I seem to be exploiting Jeff Bezos' desire to be wealthy by ordering things from Amazon. All you're doing is blathering.
That wage labor is exploitative doesn't answer why wage labor is exploitative, what does it mean for a relationship to be exploitative, which was the question.
Basically your answer is, "By saying wage labor is exploitative I mean that wage labor is exploitative." Well, like fucking duh.
Please take whatever steps you find necessary to keep my penis out of this discussion. Thank you in advance for your cooperation.
