Contrary to popular belief, it _is_ still cheating if you pay for it. IMO

To the folks who say no way to limited head, how about if they grab the guys prick and jerk if for a minute? Is that the same level of no-no too?

Definitely a deal breaker.

Yep. With the same caveat of pre-negotiation.

I must admire that woman’s athleticism. Why does she not have shoulders like the Hulk?

> Yes and that was all I was trying to say; in the few utube thingies I’ve seen of this, the guy is pretty heavily coated with whipped cream (or something, whatever) and the actual mouth to genital contact is very limited. The woman providing the contact is usually giggling and all disbelieving at her own daring. The other women in the pictures are pointing and giggling; trying to work up the nerve to give it a shot themselves. It’s a virtualy meaningless situation so why get all worked up about it?

This pretty much describes it. Yeah, they ‘get away’ with more in the main room than male patrons would, but it usually doesn’t lead to anyone getting off.

Now, if she went to a back room with him and he pressed his hard cock against her clothed crotch 'til she came – that’s what I’d consider the equivalent of the link in the OP. Especially since the acquiescent fiance is probably expecting a scenario more like the one above (cheesy stripper, penis pasta, etc.).

Bachelorette party: I’d probably be fine with it if a little annoyed. I’d probably give her shit every time she refused to give me a blow job though (just for grins, of course).

Regular every day girls night out: I’d probably be slightly more annoyed and would question her impulse control. It’s probably not a deal breaker but I’d definitely be pissy for a few days.

Single guy here, but chiming in with my responses nonetheless.

If it was my (hypothetical) wife, there would have to be some serious discussions.

If it was a girlfriend who I hadn’t tied the knot with, I’d probably guilt trip her into giving me lots of blowjobs for a few days/weeks, then call the whole thing off and break up with her.

Dude, I’m not sure you know what analogy means, because some loser cumming down his shorts when a nipple grazes his face is not the same as sucking a dick in any universe.

I heartily second this. I don’t agree that the two are in any way equivalent.

For myself I’m not sure I’d be all that bothered, but then I’m not a big one for exclusivity.

I’d laugh and ask my SO to show me what she did, not just tell me about it. Thats drunken night out with the girls cheating right there, not show up on the doorstep with divorce papers and a new fiance cheating.

The second is bad. The first is meaningless fun.

I am wondering why more people aren’t commenting on the obvious double-standard implicit in the OP.

“The closest analogy…” What?! How on earth does man sucking on nipple equate to woman sucking on cock?! The closest analogy is nipple : nipple. So why is that so casually passed over?

How is this even a valid question? I can’t imagine a scenario in which this wouldn’t be a deal breaker.

I’m getting a little fatigued of all these “Is it a deal breaker” threads. Why not just have one asking “If your SO was a total moron, would that be a deal breaker?”

I get as many blow jobs as I want, so maybe I wouldn’t freak out about it. My girl is crazy about me, loves the oral, and I wouldn’t be upset at all. Or course, she has no problems with a MFF threesome either, and although it’s not the same thing, a random blow job she told me about and was obviously not someone she cared for or wanted to be in a relationship with, would not bother me.

Just as an FYI, since several people have commented on it, here in RI there is definitely more than just dancing going on at the strip clubs. The current law on the books here makes public solicitation against the law, but paying for sex is not. It is a loophole successfully used by a defense attorney a few years ago, and upheld in court.

Thus, what two consenting adults agree to do behind closed doors is OK. As you might imagine, this has led to quite a change in the activities at the strip clubs, and a number of “massage parlors” have also opened up - though those a careful to advertise only body rubs since they don’t have massage licenses.

I’m afraid I don’t have any first hand accounts to offer, only what I read in the papers.

We’d work it out, lots of crying and apologizing, hugging and forgiving, everything would be fine until she had to go to work the next day…

So can anyone help me find out if there are any agencies/clubs looking for ugly men with small dicks to entertain female audiences?

Single male here.

Deal-breaker. I’d rather she had a full-blown high-drama affair. Cheating to fulfill some deep unfulfilled emotional need is one thing, but if you’re willing to break vows and put your relationship on the line for nothing more than Susie triple-dog dared you to, then there’s not much of a relationship there.
