Would you have sex-missionary with someone if offered money

If so, how much would it have to be?

Discussion at work quite a few years ago, inspired by the Demi Moore film. I was younger and had more money than now. If someone asked you to sleep with them for x amount of money-say half a million, would you? Missionary only, over quickly
I was aghast and said no, most said of course they would.

Now, I think I feel differently

Would you?

I’d do it, I wouldn’t care if they were hideous either, as long as they showered beforehand. That money is already spent in my head, mortgage paid, DS could go to University, not worrying about DM’s expensive care home fees anymore, the possibility of financial security in old age. No problem.

I'm not going to pretend that my answer is the one true answer, but I think the reason I prefer the scenario of doing my wife's laundry for decades, and all the rest, is that the main way I show my love is through acts of service, and so dealing with her fragrant period pants is not the vile indignity it would be if they belonged to a stranger, because my love transforms the act into something noble.

Having sex with someone I didn't want to have sex with for money would feel purely like coercion.

I appreciate everyone is different though!

But it’s not someone you don’t want to have sex with. It’s an offer you can take or turn down.

I mean to be fair I'd do it for a large bar of Dairy Milk and a Costa Lattè 🤷‍♀️

And probably have done 😂

Think of all the people (mostly women) who already reluctantly have sex with their (despised) partner to keep a roof over their (and the kids) heads. Surely if they had the opportunity to sleep once with someone to give them financial freedom they would.

This.

I know a handful of women who have married high earners they aren't attracted to, because they want the lifestyle. Sex is a job to them.

Surprised at all the yes answers.

you’d really sell your body for some sweaty, gross man that thinks he can buy consent to use? 🤢

It’s a no from me!

bazoom · 13/09/2024 10:09

Is it payment upfront or after?

I'm genuinely grateful for your reply.

Especially the small part, must be horrid.

Yes I would, probably for about 20k. I've slept with plenty of people drunk in my youth for free that I regret ( with absolutely no psychological damage or self esteem damage done ) so being paid for it would be a bonus.

I think it depends on the type of person you are and how you see sex. I am a confident person in myself with plenty of self worth and would just see it as a business transaction. I see sex as lots of different things, something intimate to share with your partner and also a way of blowing off steam and experimenting with a non partner etc.. If anything I would pity the person who has to pay for it and almost feel like I was taking advantage of them.

But that's just me, it boils down to so many individual traits and preferences and would not be the same for everyone.

Gettingbysomehow · 13/09/2024 10:11

For sure then I could retire 5 years early. I don't know what hecwould get out of it 😂II'm too old for acrobatics though.

Absolutely. I'd try to get him to do it few times too until I got to about 5 million at least.

XMissPlacedX · 13/09/2024 10:15

@moonplop Grin I like your style

Needmoresleep89 · 13/09/2024 10:17

Depends what they look like for me! And no kissing. So I guess the answer is no, because why is a good looking guy going to be paying for it?

SulkySeagull · 13/09/2024 10:18

It would depend a lot on the man - David Beckham yes, Donald Trump no.

peachgreen · 13/09/2024 10:20

I had the discussion with DP last night. He said he wouldn't do it himself and wouldn't want me to do it either. I said I would do it but wouldn't want him to do it! So we settled on a no all round!

I was quite surprised as he's a very practical, logical person in general life. But he definitely sees sex as a much more intimate, emotional experience than I do. It is that way for me with him, but I've had plenty of meaningless sex and not regretted it, whereas I think he has regrets about the sex he's had that hasn't been with someone special.

CarterBeatsTheDevil · 13/09/2024 10:21

I wouldn't. I don't need the money - I'm capable of supporting myself, if not super rich - and I don't want it enough to have sex with someone for it. I accept that that's quite a privileged position.

HerVagestyTheQueef · 13/09/2024 10:22

Yes, without a second thought actually.

I just asked DH if he’d sleep with someone for £500K. He looked over a bit puzzled and said of course he would. What if I objected? I asked.
You wouldn’t!

He's right. 😂

Chipsahoy · 13/09/2024 10:22

I did sex work online and phones years ago. I chose it but I was also 18 yrs old and had and was currently still being sexually abused. I didn’t do it for the money. It was control. Survival

I would sleep with someone for half a million but not while married. I would be more concerned with my marriage than the sex.

knittingdad · 13/09/2024 10:22

BunnyLake · 13/09/2024 10:01

But it’s not someone you don’t want to have sex with. It’s an offer you can take or turn down.

Sorry, I should have been clearer, "someone I'd want to have sex with with no money changing hands."

InSearchOfMartin · 13/09/2024 10:23

I would if it was with Chris Hemsworth.

XMissPlacedX · 13/09/2024 10:23

@Chipsahoy yes dh knows I would expect 50% of whatever he 'made'

XMissPlacedX · 13/09/2024 10:24

@Chipsahoy sorry my last post was meant for @HerVagestyTheQueef

Kokomjolk · 13/09/2024 10:27

No, and after reading Rachel Moran's incredible book Paid For, I think it's probably quite naive to think it wouldn't affect you.
