Do women pay for sex?

    I think it would be fair to say that the majority of people that pay for sex appear to be male. Why do you think that is and if I am wrong, then how are they doing it? Do they pay with something other than cash?

    Is there a huge imbalance of ratio between men and women and ages?

    Do women have the ability to switch off their sexual urges, or are they just better at covering them up? Is it because they simply don't have to pay, as there is always a willing male there to help them out, regardless of how attractive they are?

    No cash, prostitutes only accept Mastercard or Paypal.

    I have heard of women paying, but for the most part they can get it for free, and they don't tend to be as into meaningless sex as men are.

    I know, right? And mothers-in-law? Right?!

    I'm sure some women do pay for sex, but I'd say the main reasons for the imbalance have been nailed already.

    1: As a generalisation, we're not quite as into casual sex as men are
    2: If we do get a notion for a random shag, it's usually not necessary to pay for it.

    Women pay for sex by raising the kids. Does your mum know you are posting this? Did you get her flowers today?

    You're either ugly as **** or have not met the right woman yet

    Q: What's the definition of making love?
    A: it's the thing a women does when a man is fu*king her!

    Sorry for going off topic, just felt the need to tell that joke

    Haha I've had plenty of meaningless sex; don't get me wrong. But they still aren't into it the same way as most men who are out looking for it every night. It's a different thing. If it happens for women, and they meet someone they want to do it with, it happens.

    On the other hand I've seen some lads go home with some ugly ones because they are desperate for a shag. And then plenty more men pay for it as well, which women don't so much (the original point of this thread).

    Would free sex out of a relationship be meaningless? Does that mean that most ladies don't do one night stands or have affairs?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,562 ✭✭✭kub


    Men need a shag, women need a reason.

    But that guy is bringing home a girl who is into casual/meaningless sex. Generally, for every guy having a casual encounter there is a girl having one too, unless he brings home a guy.

    If I could weigh in on this. On a very basic level, ONS don't tend to be as satisfying for women as for men. I don't mean on an emotional level or anything, crudely speaking, you can't really just take some random man home and expect to get an orgasm out of it on his first go.

    I've mentioned this before on boards but most of the most promiscuous and sex driven women I know would tend to a couple of f-buddies rather than just strings of one-night-stands. And, I'd imagine, they'd be much less backward about coming forward when they're telling people what to do in bed-

    And as for 'would free sex out of a relationship be meaningless', I wouldn't use the word meaningless, but it's casual, no-commitment sex, and you can get that for free.

    I think I get what you mean. If a woman finds a guy she wants to have sex with, she would rather continue having sex with the same guy (even as a buddy) rather than continue to play the field, while a guy is not fussed about having a buddy, as much as continuing to have sex regardless of who with?

    You make some good points to do with the quality of sex in regards to a one night stand. If the guy is not pressing the right buttons, then it is going to feel a bit deflating and if he is pressing the right buttons, you are going to want to do it again.

    This is probably the main reason. Then there's the whole "women should only "give it up" for the right person" view of sex that a lot of people still have. Even on the relationship issues forum you constantly see people advising women not to sleep with someone before a certain number of dates, or telling the OP it seems like the guy just wants sex.

    People still assume that men only ever want sex and that women should only "put out" after he proves he is worthy. So some women have this skewed perception that guys can have casual sex and its no big deal because of course that's all men ever want, but if a woman does then the guy isn't going to respect her. So then to even suggest paying for it is just a bizarre concept :pac:

    Yes but better to do the using than be used? No fear of rejection, as it is not meant to any further.

    I do know men who would never date a lady that 'puts out' on the first date. It's almost like a challenge and any woman who gives in too easy and they lose interest. Now if she isn't in to him (relationshipwise) then nothing to lose, but if she likes him...

    It is a messed up world we live in really isn't it? I mean you wait, because you like the person and can see yourself being with them and when it finally happens and you discover they are crap at sex, well... what do you do then?

    No offence but any woman is better off without them. They're giving in pretty easy themselves by actively pursuing sex from her like

    Perhaps not so much pay for sex, but I do seem to recall reading an article on bbc reporting on the rise of high powered career women paying for 'dates' to social occasions and such as they claimed they didn't have the time / energy to maintain relationships or get dates in the conventional way, but who did it to maintain an image.

    Crazy stuff..

    Men are often happy to cheat with women less attractive than their OH, I think women usually cheat with men more attractive than their OH.

    Nothing, maybe I misread your post but you seem to be saying that they take a woman out, try and get sex from her but wouldn't have any interest in taking the relationship further if she 'gives in too easy', which is some bullsh1t behaviour

    A lot of the time it is, but if the person isn't satisfied in the relationship/ sex life then they can either try to fix it (whatever that entails for the couple) or else end it.

    I remember seeing a BBC documentary back in 2001 that took a look at male prostitutes in one of the states in Australia where it was legal.

    The guy (married) set himself up after losing his job and his wife was doing his bookings, etc answering questions from prospective clients. Yes he has a long penis, oh 8 inches and its very thick!

    Crazy stuff indeed...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 788 ✭✭✭Sound Bite


    Woman don't have to because it's so freely available to us any time we want it regardless of how attractive we are.

    I agree with other posters..I would have much more interest in a **** buddy than a string of one nighters. .


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,341 ✭✭✭czechlin


    I don't think women paying for sex is as often occurrence as the other way around but there certainly are some. What would gigolos do for living if there weren't any! As somebody mentioned before, there seems to be a rise of professional women paying for 'escorts' to accompany them to social events etc. How often do the deals include sex I don't know. It all sounds a bit mad to me but I guess it depends on the lifestyle of said people.

    I can see where you got that from. I'm more talking about guys I have discussed this with, who go out looking for some attention and will take it if it is offered (not necessarily pursuing) but where they might have at first thought she was dating material, the fact that they initiated sex on the first night they would not date them, as they assume she would do it with anyone.

    Where as, a guy is almost expected to want sex from the off and is not necessarily pre-judged for trying?

    A lot of guys don't try and fix it though. They find that they can't talk to their partner about it or they won't listen, so either seek it else where or are miserable.
