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?

And I don't think it would be any more psychologically damaging than anything else I've experienced in life only this time I'd have 100k to help me get over it..

A good extension of this discussion is body parts.
Me and a friend who works in insurance were discussing that girl who got the payout from alton towers when her legs got crushed on the Smiler.
And how she may actually have considered it a lucky thing to have happened to her as she can now walk again with prosthetic legs and live a relatively normal life.. but she got 1million plus payout at 18 so she never has to worry much about money...
So we were discussing what body parts we'd give up for how much money..
Apparently there's a list of how much body parts are worth in terms of insurance and/or in court cases regarding accidents that weren't your fault!! There's a whole list of what say, losing a finger, or an ear, would be worth financially

Being physically disabled for most of your life from 18 onwards is huge. There will be pain and things she will never do. She may even use a wheelchair part time. I worked with amputees most are on anti depressants and require a lot of therapy to come to terms with what has happened. What I've seen I wouldn't wish on myself for 1m. It's not that much money over a lifetime. I think the sex would be a better option than having your legs crushed.

Reminds me of the Winston Churchill story:
“Churchill: "Madam, would you sleep with me for five million pounds?" Socialite: "My goodness, Mr. Churchill... Well, I suppose... we would have to discuss terms, of course... "
Churchill: "Would you sleep with me for five pounds?"
Socialite: "Mr. Churchill, what kind of woman do you think I am?!"
Churchill: "Madam, we've already established that. Now we are haggling about the price.”
We've already established that they will fork. Now we are haggling about the price.

and that's what kind of woman you would be!

I agree. Doggy is the way forward here. Question is, what book would it be? Or would you be on a site browsing luxury holidays?!

To be fair, I'd be shopping online and blowing my million (obviously I would have insisted on payment upfront).

outdooryone · 14/09/2024 22:18

Life changing amount of money?
Absolutely.
Where do I sign up?

neighboursmustliveon · 15/09/2024 00:12

If I was single I probably would. As I’m not, I never would. I wouldn’t be happy if DH did either.

06230villefrancesurmer · 15/09/2024 00:16

God damm ya cats are too kool for me . Oh to be 40 years younger. HA. hey sieze the moment sieze the day

HerVagestyTheQueef · 15/09/2024 01:02

When I was young and gorgeous I spent the night with a man - a fellow wedding guest - in his hotel room because I was too tight to book my own room and the wedding finished earlier than I thought. Hotel was nice and probably fairly expensive for a nowhere town. I even blagged a free breakfast.

£500K is a big improvement on a decent hotel room!

Beautifulweeds · 15/09/2024 01:34

When I was younger my reaction was no way, relationship with partner meant more, I just couldn't.

Now, a bit older, and completely monogamous, if someone offered a million pounds for one night, with protection, and discuss it with my DH as just that, probably yes! That detached time to have our future secured. Same as with DP, mutual agreement.

Can't believe how much my opinion of this has changed, but when you've been together for decades, the trust won't be forfeited because it's jist a transaction.

Not that I would be wanted for one night for that sum of money lol so all hypothetical. Xx

Abbylikeswine · 12/09/2024 23:49

Does nobody wonder about the psychological damage it would do to you?

Lol I'd be too busy enjoying my half a million to be introspective! It's not the end of the world if you agreed to it. And think what you could do with that money? Even £50k.....

No multi millionaire is going to offer a 45+ woman half a million pounds to sleep with them,when you could just go on tinder and get it for free. That being said if I was single, I'd do it for 1k and be happy. If in a serious relationship half a million.

ShinyCaptain · 15/09/2024 13:19

No thanks.

God I'd much rather have my legs than a million pounds.

**

Exactly, I'm sure the person it happened to would rather that as well.
Bit nasty for the person who made the original comment about her to discuss her like that.

ISpyNoPlumPie · 15/09/2024 15:53

I really, really love the “I’d do it for a fiver/crème egg/I’d do a whole football team comments 😆 but in all seriousness, I’m married and not living in poverty so I wouldn’t do it. It would ruin my life. I don’t need the money to keep my children alive and safe so using the money to buy things I don’t need would make me feel awful. A new kitchen, a Porsche, a holiday so I can feel totally violated? And we enjoy these things as a family and everything is fine? Nope.

StrugglingGrief · 15/09/2024 16:35

I could not cope if DH did it, it would ruin me. in a way if I did it I think it wouldn’t mean anything to me but if DH did it I don’t think I could live with that.

Einhverdottir · 15/09/2024 17:00

It's interesting to see how we have different perspectives based on age. And of course, based on the importance of the amount of money for someone. Also a lot of variety on how people look at sex (which also changes with age).

If I had to do it, then easiest for me if I'd be lying on my stomach, face down and doing nothing, doggy might mean I'd be expected to move a bit.

Scammersarescum · 15/09/2024 17:05

Definitely not. Even if I was on the bones of my arse.

But I have huge issues with the commodification of women's bodies men seeing us as objects that deliver sex, housework and babies is one of the very base roots of misogyny.

Having been one of the ones joking about it I have been offered money for sex before when I was a much younger woman, a handful of times which I always turned down.

One was when I was a student. I was running late and had told friends I'd meet them in the club, it was around the corner of the red light district of the city at the time. I walked past 4 men when the older one said something and another man said his uncle asked if I would have sex with him and held out a huge roll of £20s, there must have been several hundred quid there. I carried on walking and said No, I'm not a prossie and people are waiting for me. The younger in the group stood in front of me said his uncle really liked me and only wanted a short time with me and held out another huge roll of 20s. I kept walking (and I stride along so he was basically running backwards) and repeated that people were waiting for me and would come looking for me. I shouldered him out of the way, as a manual worker I was a lot stronger than I looked.

I had a strong feeling that had I stopped to speak to them one of the men would stick me with a syringe full of ket or heroin and the next time I woke up would be in an overseas brothel.

So my joking comes with a caveat that while I would consider it, it would have to be more in the indecent proposal style where I had a choice rather than some random bloke and his "nephews" on the street at night acosting young women going clubbing.

You might have had a 'strong feeling' but in reality no one was going to inject you with ketamine and kidnap you. Dramatic much?

The red light district was around the corner, he could have got any pretty young experienced sex worker for a lot less than they were offering me very quickly and easily, the sex workers were on the street corners and perfectly visible from where we were. So why stand near a night club with 10 times more money and then some than one of the sex workers would have asked for?

As for being "dramatic much" ... if it keeps me from being naive and overly trusting and prevents me being attacked then yes, fine I'll happily go along with my fertile imagination.

Of course everyone else is free to do what they want but trusting instincts is generaly thought a good thing. And yes people are stuck with needles, raped and forced into prostitution even in the olden days like when I was a student.

I wouldn’t for any amount of money, the thought turns my stomach. I’m not judging anyone else, live and let live, just for me personally I feel repulsed even thinking about it.

Me too. I really couldn't sell my body, although admittedly I sell my brain every day

There is definitely an amount I would say “yes” to but it would be a lot more than half a million.

I would have to be able to never work again off the back of it.

Would you be ok with your husband doing it with another woman for the same amount?

It’s an interesting dilemma 🤔

Yes, 100% if it was enough to make us comfortable/ buy a house.
