If there was an app where I could quickly hook up with a woman just for some physical satisfaction as easily as men do on Grindr I’d be pretty satisfied too. Low effort sex should be more readily available so that people don’t have to pollute serious dating apps looking for it.

These apps exist, but you’re paying for an escort

I wouldn’t mind paying for an escort, but it feels like such a gray market and I don’t know how to navigate it. I’d really like some kind of Uber Eats type thing where I can make an appointment with someone and have them come over for an hour and then just be on their way. No BS.

That sounds exactly like an escort with a fancy app.

How else is one supposed to find an escort? People are always saying “just hire an escort” casually like if this was some common knowledge.
Plus maybe you don’t need an escort if you are a match with someone else looking for the same thing as you.

strip clubs I imagine. They can't legally say they have escorts, but it's an entire scene. Like any other tribal knowledge, you need to know the edge cases and know the right people. And/or be rich. You can't just google this kinda stuff, you gotta get out to your town and dig (well... you kind of can. But you don't want to take the risk asking for certain Craigslist ads on this stuff).
Or you can go to Vegas where prostitution isn't illegal.

See this is already more work than I’d want to do. I hate strip clubs. And I don’t want to grease palms in some shady underworld to get access to escorts. Literally just want to pay someone to come over, get me off, then I go about my day. It should be like getting a massage, not negotiating for drugs.

The Japanese already have a very similar service, called Delivery health.

That was supposed to be what Tinder was for! Then somehow it turned into people trying to find actual relationships on there, and then everyone else decided to try to copy their success. So we had the situation you describe, but it didn't last.
