1. How much money?
Edited on Thu Dec-07-06 12:42 PM by janesez
$20 is insulting, but a million means I'm Demi Moore.

6. I never saw the movie...but I remember my normally prudish mom wondering exactly
what the moral dilemma was.

Everyone has their price, I guess. :D

59. that movie pisses me off to no end
also, as a guy, I think I'd be pretty flattered, even with the $20...I still wouldn't do it, but I'd be flattered.

Twenty-three pounds and sixpence. Oh, but I need £2 to pay the milkman. I've got £21.06, then. That's about $41. Will that do?

8. I think I'd be offended...
no, I know I would be. I mean, if it was something I wanted then money wouldn't enter into it. If it was something I didn't want to do, then no amount of money would change that.

53. The offense is in the suggestion/assumption that the person is for sale.
No amount of money could erase that offense for me, and I suspect that is idgie's reason also.

27. "if"? don't most young women get such offers, and yeah it's insulting
it's the dude basically saying he thinks you're a whore, isn't he? and it doesn't make him look any better, because it says that he knows you're not into him and he doesn't care, he just wants his spew and he thinks he can buy you

so yeah it's really insulting

29. I'd be Confused.
I'm a guy. If an attractive woman offered me money, I'd be thinking...why the cash? If she was so unattractive she needed to pay, then if she's paying, why not go for some 18-22 year old guy who can "perform" over and over again?...at least get your moneys worth.

Poor woman would be standing there waiting for an answer, while I'd be looking up, scratching my chin trying to ponder out the paradox.

31. Here's your answer to why the cash:
(seriously)
The guarantee of no strings attached, that she could kick you out afterwards with no qualms whatsoever.
Part of the same reason many men pay for it.

30. Flattered.
But, it's happened many many times (THE OFFER, NOT THE DEED B/C OF THE OFFER); and I have been both flattered and insulted. (in my job it's an occupational hazard)
Depends on the situation, the person, and the delivery.

54. I guess flattered because...
When I was trying to get into the acting gig (some years back when I had a bit more hair and a bit less gut), my agent kept offering me porn jobs for a studio in Dallas(this is before the internet became mainstream). She told me I could do three scenes in one day and walk off with $7500 (minus her cut, of course). I kept saying no-- but there was a part of me that figured, "hey-- if nothing else, my body is good enough for porn!"

So, yeah, I guess I was flattered-- in a creepy, I-need-a-shower kind of way.

58. One of the questions they ask when you give blood is -
"Have you ever taken money for sex?"

I once answered that one, "only in my dreams..."

So, as a guy, I'd be flattered if a woman offered me money for sex.
