As long as it was discussed and agreed upon, it falls under my Consenting Adults category. But if you wanted her to "pay" you in that way, and she didn't want to, but you were putting pressure on her, that wouldn't be right imo. Then again, if you bring it up, it might freak her out. Hmmm...interesting dilemma. Kind of like in a traditional date scenario...if a man takes a woman out and spends lots of money on her, really nice dinner, tickets to an expensive show, etc. should he expect her to have sex with him? btw, I pay my own way on dates almost always. That way, if we do have sex, it's because I want to, not because I feel obliged due to the money he spent on me.
Of course. A gentleman would never request a thank you of any sort, even though he is willing to accept one that is freely given.
A lot of girls will use the possibility of sex to get what they want from a guy. i wouldn't be cool with fucking a guy in exchange for Whatever. But i've had friendships involving "arrangements" regarding sex.
teehee..."friends with benefits"? I've never used sex to get what I want from anyone. I have sex because I want to, but I see what you're saying ctw. I have a good job and I'm financially and emotionally independent, and have (relatively) decent self-esteem, so there's nothing I'm trying to "get" from a partner except their attention. If they don't want it, then I move on, because where's the fun in trying to talk someone into wanting you? IMHO, a woman using sex, or the possibility of sex, to get what she wants from a man is an archaic 20th century cultural practice before women could get what they needed, i.e. money, security, power, etc. on their own. [/soapbox] And MikeE, not everyone is a gentleman...but I'm sure you're well aware of that.
Yes, "thank you sex" is far too close to prostitution for me, and I'm no whore. Sex should only be done for pleasure -- so if the "thank you sex" is just a tactic to get into bed with someone you want anyway, grow a spine and be honest about those desires instead of hiding them behind some far less appealing guise (*comment directed toward recipient of favor who is offering "thank you sex", not to OP who is curious about opinions of it). What really is the difference between "thank you sex" and prostitution, except that one is more explicit (and therefore more honest, so in that regard more respectable)? And I would place the "I owe you, but I'm broke sex" in the middle, between honest prostitution and "thank you sex". But it's all in the same category for me.
To be serious and to be honest. I want a girl to fuck me because she wants to fuck me, and not to pay me for anything. I think if a girl offered me sex for rent or something I'd tell her to fuck off! Sex is a way for two or people enjoying each other, not to pay for something!!
The whole thought of "thank you sex",I can't imagine any woman in her right mind doing it. I wouldn't think highly of a chick if she did offer sex as a "thank you" gift. Not saying I would turn it down,actually I just might turn it down,but if I didn't I'd probably make it a point to make her feel like a whore afterwards.
It sounds like the general feeling is "I don't do thank you sex" and that women only have sex with guys they are attracted to. How does this fit in with "pity sex"? Is pity sex an urban myth?
