How effective is simply asking "want to have sex?"

I got this idea from watching “A Beautiful Mind”, where the main character, a smart but very socially inept man, asks random attractive women for sex.

I was thinking, if I walked up to random women and asked them for sex, what would the success rate be? How many slaps in the face for every one “yes”? Would it be worth it?

You’d be pretty successful if you asked random prostitutes. :slight_smile:

I depends on who’s asking me …

If you were a woman it’d be highly successful. It worked for Bridgett Fonda in Jackie Brown, (although she said “wanna fuck?”)

Yeah, but if you remember the movie, the lucky guy in question later shot her in a parking lot…so be careful who you ask. :stuck_out_tongue:

Asking in the right way late in a date has often worked VERY WELL for me.

Of course, I’m a 'mo.

:smiley:

I once read in a campus magazine about a sociology class experiment. They sent a reasonably attractive woman and a reasonably attractive man (no definition or proof was provided) around campus to ask members of the opposite sex for things like a phone number, a date, or just for sex.

On the sex question, the man had a 0% success rate. The woman, on the other hand, had something like an 80% success rate, with the majority of men who turned her down apologizing to her that they had prior commitments. I assume it was just an experiment, so the woman didn’t follow through with all her offers. I’m guessing there were quite a few cold showers in the men’s dorm that evening!

My brother read an article (probably bogus, but fun) that said the odds are about 1 in ten for a singles bar, and about 1 in 2 at closing time, when everyone left has gotten desperate to pair off or go home alone. Of course, I suspect those last desperate diehards are older hookers, but at that point does it matter to you?

Well I’ve had a 100% success rate, but then, I am a woman. I wish there was some way to tell young women about this, because I was not confident and didn’t go after guys much when I was in my early twenties. I figured this out in my late twenties. While I don’t usually ask for “sex” (but I have a few times) I do find just being very forthright works. Guys seem to like meeting a girl who knows what she wants and goes after it.

depends how attractive the asker is, and how available the askee is.
no, i’m being serious.

in the days when i was single and horny, one of the things i hated most was having to dance around the issue.
the preamble to the best one night stand i ever had consisted of a look, a kiss, and a walk to the taxi rank.

so yes, on me, it would work if the guy was good-looking.

I’d estimate my success rate with this approach is over 50%. Of course, I only ask my wife that question.

eww…

Judging by what I’ve seen on HBO specials, your random prostitute isn’t very pretty. How they still get business is anybodies guess. I suppose their customers motto is "Any port in a storm!"

Or any porn in a storm.

Like any technique, this method will probably work on some people, to the amazement of everyone else. I’m not sure you’d want the kind of people it would work on, though.

In a far far away time, I was at a party.

It got very late.

A very attractive,shapely young (same age as me) girl started walking upstairs and said: “I’m going to bed, who’s coming with me”

Every guy in the place looked at each other in stunned silence.

In a fraction of second I broke the silence by saying "ME!"

You can pretty much extrapolate what happened from there…(suffice it to say I was doing the happy dance that night)

someone actually conducted a study on this! gotta love psychologists… :cool:

on a university campus…males and females asked (by members of the opposite gender): hi, i’ve seen you around campus and i find you very attractive. would you -

(1) go on a date with me? 55% F agree, 50% M agree
(2) go back to my apartment? 6% F agree, 69% M agree
(3) have sex with me tonight? 0% F agree, 75% M agree

so, about your plan, Blalron…good luck. you’ll need it. :stuck_out_tongue:

Ahh, the scatter technique. Only seems to work for blokes if it’s late in a club and the drink has been flowing. When the mating call of the common or garden club tramp (bimbo vulgaris) echoes around the club, “I’m really drunk hiccup”, then is the time to try this desperate, any port in a storm, every hole’s a goal, method.

But you won’t like what you wake up with in the morning.

I guess it is true…

look… all you have to do is ask?

safe for work(no nudity)… but does play sound

I had a friend once , a male, that used to ask strangers,female,“wanna fuck”.
I asked him once why he used that line.
He said he gets turned down,or maybe they just walk away, more than anyone he knows. BUT he also gets laid more than anyone he knows.
We haven’t paled around for over 30 years ,I got married. He still isn’t married.
Maybe there is a connection.Maybe not.

So far, I’m batting 1000. Of course, I’ve only actually asked the question twice, and both times it was with my boyfriend. Since we only see each other once a month at the most, he’d be an idiot to turn down sex when I offer it:).

Ava…not that I’ve ever said no either…

Hey merge

When I click on your link I get a “need to install Flash 6”

I also get a “the IRAQI information minister” (quotes mine) in the address box. WTF
