Would you derive any sort of sexual pleasure from being kissed on the ass cheek for five seconds?

Between this, and the “NSFW” thread, I really think we should include gender in our user profiles. It would make things a lot clearer. All these people who are saying yes, are they men or women? I’m a guy and I don’t think I would do that. Maybe for $10,000.

For women, I don’t think you’d have to pay somebody. You’d just have to ask, or we would ask you: [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NEmoylxzvhw](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NEmoylxzvhw)

**Idle Thoughts** , I’ve been feeling kind of down today(long story). I read your OP, and the replies, and now my sides ache from laughing.

Thanks, I needed that.

Oh, I would most definitely do it, since you stipulated privacy and a clean buttock.

You betcha! (Girl here.) No STDs, right? :eek:

It’s freshly washed, so it can’t be that different from any other skin. And it’s not like I’d ever have to look you in the eye. I could wear a wig and sunglasses to hide my shame. And there’s Listerine. When I was a kid, I probably accidentally ate something far more disgusting than a few ass cheek germs.

How much’ll you give me for a good hard smack and a wink? $50? There’s a potential business opportunity for an enterprising woman here…

I just _know,_ though…somewhere, there’s a fetish site dedicated to things like this.

Accidentally? What kind of germophobic kid were you? I don’t know any kids that haven’t eaten mud pies, at least one bite worth. On purpose!

Oh, I was thinking more like bugs flying into my mouth on a bike, that kinda thing. If I ever deliberately ate dirt, I don’t remember it, thank goodness. I did used to build “houses” for worms, though, and I don’t remember caring all that much about washing my hands afterwards…

If we’re talking about a clean cheek, it’s no big deal. It’s more or less the same as kissing the skin on your arm etc. $1000 is a princely sum for 5 seconds of work…I calculate it to be $720,000/hr. Where do I sign up?

I’ve often wondered about phrases like “Kiss my ass!” If an attractive woman said that to me, I’d gladly comply. Drop trou, babe!

I love the Google ads for this thread. “Dangerous Kissing Techniques” and “Kissing 101 - How To Kiss A Man”.

Let’s see…  
Squeaky clean, non-hairy cheek.  
Total privacy.  
No one else will ever be told.  
$1000.  
Unless you’re going to be a ass (no pun intended) and hold it over my head every time I see you, I don’t see any downside. Unless you deliberately fart in my face, then I’d forgo the money and punch you in the nuts.

There’s no way you’ll contract an STD by kissing someone’s buttock. Not unless they’ve got an open wound there.

Here’s a related question - how much concern do people have about the idea of providing mouth-to-mouth breathing? Not for money, or just as part of life support.

I don’t have a problem with it, but I also recognize it as being far riskier than kissing someone’s butt cheek would be. Even with a so-called mouth barrier in place.

Oh, sure. I’ve kissed my boyfriend’s ass before - I was sitting down, he was walking past, we were naked, and it was right there at mouth level, so why not? Now, considering that you and I lack an intimate relationship (for the time being) I would not kiss your ass for nothing. If you actually made this proposition in real life, I would attempt to bargain for a higher price than your initial offer, regardless of what you offered. So if you offered $1,000, I’d ask for $1,250. But if you offered $100 and wouldn’t budge, I’d still do it. I wouldn’t do it for less than $100. Then I’d go home and call all my friends and say, “You won’t BELIEVE what just happened!”

Yes, yes. I was just joking around. Thought the smiley made it clear. Sorry. :smack:

God help someone who manages to get herpes sores or something like it on their buttocks.

Many of the people who cheerfully agreed to do it for prices ranging from zero to $1000 are male. And AFAIK, heterosexual.

So you’re a guy… No. Sorry, not for a grand. I couldn’t do it.

But, if you were female, I’d do it for free. Between the cheeks. :eek:
