A friend of a friend just revealed that she is thinking about carrying on a family tradition. Seems her mother has charged her father $50 for every bj given. She didn't charge him for straight sex, but figured the bj was "special" and deserving of a reward for her. Rumor has it that mom has amassed a rather sizable bank account over the years.

So the daughter's thinking of a price list for services. She thinks her husband will likely be agreeable. He doesn't need to reciprocate. This is her, doing things to/for him. Getting in the mood isn't required...

Here's what she's thinking:
handjob $20
blowjob $30
bj with swallow $40
anal $100

What do you think? Would you do this? Pay for this? Are the prices in line?

I told her he needs to pay more. Do you agree?

You think he should pay more? Shouldn't there be a lifetime membership or something?

as far as I know, she hasn't started collecting yet, she just thinks it's a good idea.

Seems a little goofy/creepy to me... but if she's planning to charge, shouldn't she get a pretty good price? BTW, I've been married for 27 years and have NO idea how much is too much... I just figured if mom had gotten $50, shouldn't cost of living adjustments raise the rates?

This will be with her husband only. No outside parties allowed.

Getting in the mood isn't required? Sounds like bundles of fun, especially that anal part... :\

I have no idea if the prices are in line. I'd think this was ok as a fun one off. As a regular thing...it seems really odd to me.

If you're with someone you love, the last thing you want to feel is that you are required to pay them to get them to do what pleases you. I would say something is off in a relationship where one partner thinks the things they do for the other partner are payable favours...

yeah I'm boring like that.

Dumb and offensive.

To me, it utterly cheapens the idea of sex between partners. When it becomes a strictly monetary transaction all of the love is taken out of it. I give my SO BJs because I LOVE him and want to please him, not because I want to make a quick buck.

Admittedly, long-term relationships and marriage have long been an economic transaction of sorts, and this puts that out there on the table, but I think it does it in such a way that it really can't be good over the long term.

Why pay those rates when he could probably find it elsewhere for free?

Wait, can he pay $140 for ass-to-mouth, or is it $150 ($10 extra premium)?

This is retarded. The day my wife starts charging me for sex is the day I start considering divorce and sleeping with other women for free.

Not to mention I'd start thinking of her as a whore.

Maybe the husband should start charging for similar services.

I see this as making their marriage turn to crap very quickly. If the marriage is good and there is communication, she should be able to ask for money from her husband without charging him for sex acts. I could see how something like this could be a fun one time thing, to maybe make it into a tawdry event with acting everything out (good call girl fantasy). But beyond that....bad idea.

Tell your friend to seriously reconsider and/or talk with her husband about her idea. If he finds it arousing, then I say go for it, but it should end when he is no longer comfortable with it. It will begin to change both his and her view of sex. You act like a prostitute, you may end up feeling like a prostitute.

That doesn't sound like a marriage of equal partners. How terribly sad.

BTW, as always, I go down free of charge.

Baraka_Guru

The husband should charge a $500 monthly "protection fee."

Hey, lets turn the tables on this one and have the husband put the squeeze on the wife. He stashes all his money away and doesn't give her a single damn cent till she starts sucking.

Still seem like such a funny/silly idea?



Worst fucking idea I've ever heard.

The whole tone of this is that s certain acts are "special", her doing them is a treat for him (but not her) so he can reciprocate in cash.

Well that's fine, but if she wants to play that game he should charge her a $10 per minute waiting time every time she's not ready to leave the house on the appointed time, he should charge $50 for cunnilingus, he should demand a payment for having to listen politely to her mother (insert marital stereotype here).

See where this is going?

If my girlfriend or even wife offered this to me I'd quickly tell her to get the fuck out.


There is no way I'm gonna pay someone I love to blow me. She should want to please me as much as I should want to please her. If it's a burden that requires payment then you don't give two fucks about me.

If the hooker on the corner gives handjobs for $15, what would stop him from going there? He just saved himself five bucks.

I join the "stupid idea" club.

Oh, I could work up a price sheet pretty easily.

Let's see:

$15 - Take out the trash
$20 - Dishes
$50 - Clean one bathroom
$75 - Accompany on a non-mall shopping trip
$130 - Shopping trip including the mall

Orgasms are complimentary.
As usual, you read my mind and said what I was thinking about ten times more tactfully.

If my wife asked for this I'd laugh because she's obviously joking. If I realized she wasn't I'd start thinking of a divorce.

Plan9

Stupid as hell? Incredibly offensive? Dumbest thing on the board since I started posting?

Well, let's turn that frown upside down.

Guy comes home from the track with $1000 and demands nothing but anal for the next 3 days.

It better be one hell of a Blowjob because 300 bucks an hour is expensive!

If for some reason I pay and she's unable to perform the task, will she set up a substitute to replace her? It's a hefty price to pay without some kind of guarantee of service.

Anal 3 times a day?

I think I'd rather buy something useful. Like tickets to a concert and a medium priced dinner for another woman, get sex and have a shitton saved up for some toys.

EDIT:

Does the price mean he can request the services at any time of day or night? Say I feel like getting a hummer at 4 a.m. while she's sound asleep.

does your friend's father think he couldn't get anyone else? or that it was normal for women to charge for blowjobs?

why would he put up with that garbage. he needs to toughen up.

Sounds like a great recipe for cheating if you ask me. Why pay $30 for a blow job from you gf/wife when you could go find some drunk girl at the bar to do it for free? Since getting in the mood isn't required and the whole thing sounds about as clinical as possible why not?

Besides if she's going to charge rates I'd do what any responsible customer would do and shop around for the best deal. A hooker, maybe one of her friends might be much better at giving head and do so at a reduced price, it would be silly of me not to take my business elsewhere...unless she of course can provide a better blow job at competitive prices.

Honestly the whole idea is just REALLY strange and it sounds like there are so many issues under the surface of that relationship I wouldn't even know were to begin fixing it.

Non-mall shopping trip - blowjob with swallow/facial
Shopping mall trip - anal

Pretty simple. It's called the bartering system. It's how the majority of sex has been negotiated since the beginning of time.

There was a joke similar to this making the email rounds. I can't for the life of me remember how it goes. I think someone read the joke and made something up about a friend of a friend or cousin of a cousin or whatever it was, I'm much to lazy to scroll back up and look.
