Another Question

In recent posts, I've discussed why men pay for sex and why women don't.

Well, one blogger commented that men regularly ask her if they can pay her for sex.

I was kind of surprised by that. I couldn't imagine doing that. So I was immediately curious if any of our readers have had that experience. So I figured it would be another good question to pose to the readers.

And while talking about paying, I thought I'd add the story about the one time a woman asked to pay me for a service. Alas, it wasn't for sex. It was for playing tennis. I was on the support staff at the Army War College where a couple of hundred colonels were taking classes. So rank didn't mean as much as at a normal military base because they weren't commanding troops. Anyway, somehow this colonel's wife sent word she was looking for an enlisted man to play tennis with her to practice for her women's matches and was willing to pay. Since I was one of the few tennis players, the word got to me and we met. But I declined the money. I just like playing tennis and was happy to have someone to play. I said let's hit and if she could play, we'd just play. And she was and we did. So I blew my one chance to get a woman to pay me for something. LOL.

Got a tad off topic but I will be curious to see if asking women to pay them for sex is unusual.

Another question

I recently asked why men pay for sex and got some interesting answers. Now the flip side. Why don't women pay for sex?

I think the answer is that for a lot of men, sex is just sex. A release. But for women, sex tends to involve commitment and love. And also any woman who wants sex isn't likely to have much trouble finding a man who is happy to provide it.

But I will be interested in your thoughts.

Why?

In my last post, I talked about the Italian prime minister up on charges of paying an underage girl for sex and then intervening with police when she was arrested on a theft charge. The theme was powerful men paying for sex.

In the comments, there was discussion of why men pay for sex (why women usually don't is a whole other topic) in the first place. There was talk that the women cater to men's needs the way wives don't and that it was deeply connected to their home lives. And that some men pay for sex and then just want to talk.

I think it is all very complicated and there is no easy answer. I think variety is part of it. The excitement of something illicit. And just the fact that the male sex drive is so intense. I don't have first hand knowledge of the subject since I would embarrassed by the thought of paying. That is just me. But I found it interesting to watch the show on the Bunny Ranch con HBO called "Cathouse.'' I find it interesting the men must sign releases and agree to be filmed.

Also are there women out there who know their men pay for sex and how do they feel about it. I don't think it is necessarily a reflection on their home lives. Their men may just want something different.

Anyway, I thought I'd bring up the topic and see what the reaction is.
