5 thou a month for something that cost the former NY gov 2 thou an hour is a pretty good deal.

I heard about this a long time ago. Nothing new. Women have always been a “commodity” for which men will pay. I’m not going to make a point here of the immorality of it all - certainly it goes against my Christian beliefs about the sanctity of marriage and so on, but let’s face it, it is not a secret that many, many women marry men, date men, and become mistresses to men for the security (i.e. material possessions) that they bring to the equation.

It would be nice not to have the money involved, because you always wonder: Would she still want to be with me even without the money?

What a dolt.

A certain New York ex-governor now realizes he paid way too much to an escort service.

Oh, and almost forgot, this article reminded me of the old joke where the beautiful woman is sitting at the bar and a handsome man approaches her and asks her if she will sleep with him if he pays her $1 million and she agrees; so then he says, well, I think I’d like to pay you $500 if you’ll sleep with me and she says, “What do you think I am?” and he says, “We have already established what you are, now we’re just negotiating price.”

>> Does the money make me more attractive than I really am?”

Nah, d!ckweed, it’s you she wants. In fact, the money is probably a turnoff to “Lola”.

Give me a break.

Nice, never seen that one before. But you’re right regardless.

The feminist movement can’t compete with reality.

I know. The funny thing of it is though that women are wired very differently than men and I have a hunch that many of these women and maybe even a few of the men are going to GET attached and because they don’t want to, there are going to be some REAL fireworks.

The other issue is an unplanned pregnancy. Some idiots think that birth control is 100 percent fool proof but not so.

No it can’t. I think many of today’s women have so bought into the baloney that men and women are EQUAL that they don’t really understand how very different we are. I think women of yesterday understood men much, much better. With all the education and sophistication we have now - the access to all this info - and people are dumber than ever before, especially about male-female dynamics.

I believe God made men the way He did for a good reason and likewise He did for us ladies.

I’d put the chances of those “fetuses” growing up into babies at about nil.

And now I realize you’re a woman and am even more impressed.

Oh, I don’t think so. You underestimate the maternal instinct, my friend. Many, many have thought they could do the deed but could not go through with it.

Some of these relationships are going to get really sticky, I’ll bet ya.

I will grant you however that the vast, vast majority would be aborted because when we consider the “character” of those involved, killing a baby is probably not a big agonizing decision; but for some it still will.

I’m a realist! Do you ever listen to Dennis Prager and his talks about men and women? He does a show once a week called the Male/Female hour and it’s excellent - just excellent! And it’s funny too.

He had a gal call up once and complain b/c her hubby was always wanting sex and coming up behind her and squeezing her and (fill in the blank here) and she was offended that he thought of her as some sexual object. Dennis said - I’m paraphrasing here “Oh my gosh, do you know how LUCKY you are that your husband sees you that way??? And what a great compliment that is that your man would love you AND think of you in that way?”

It’s a lot more complicated but he cuts right to the point and I think he’s educated quite a few people - I know I’ve learned a few things.

The whole thing is sad though, don’t you think? What parent would hope their daughter ended up doing this kind of thing?

It reminds me of that girl that was auctioning off her virginity - I never heard any more about that story. Don’t people think their souls are at risk when they engage in this kind of behavior? It really makes me sad.

Apparently, you didn’t get to read the statements by women here on one of Dennis Prager’s articles a bit back. The “women should give into their husbands at any time” article.
