Would you prostitute yourself or have sex with a gender you do not prefer for 10 million dollars? What about animals. Let’s assume the only person that would even know about it would be yourself. Also, let’s assume that no significant others are involved and there was no fear of disease or retribution.
HUGS!

Alright, alright. I’ll have sex with you! But no animals and you’ll have to put 5Mil up front, cash.

What are we talking about here, pitching or catching?

Hell, Sqrl, for 10 million dollars, I’d screw a donkey in front of my parents.

Horowitz, whichever one you are most uncomfortable with.
Any other takers out there?
I am not sure if I would do it. The purist in me says that I wouldn’t. But I don’t know if that is necessarily true within all circumstances.
HUGS!

I would have to be pretty desperate (As in, starving, on the streets, with no one to help me) to even consider it.
That said, no, I wouldn’t. I don’t need money that badly, no matter how broke I am.

In a New York minute. Not with animals, though. $10 million covers a lot of shame.

I’ll say no right now, but seeing the money might make different things come out my mouth.

$10 million? No diseases? Brian wouldn’t care?
I don’t know about the animals, but I think that’s enough to get me in bed with a woman for one night.

What kind of animal has 10 million bucks to throw around?

As a point of tactical import, I will be taking on the awesome responsibility of pimping **SqrlCub’s** ass all over the SDMB. Send all appropriate funds directly to my attention.

I have an intense dislike for the notion of sex in exchange for material things, whether I’m giving them or recieving them, and especially when it would be with someone I would not otherwise be doing it with. I enjoy sex far too much to debase it in such a manner. It would take a lot of money to even make me consider it. But by the time you reach an amount that could turn my head, it is so large that I honestly don’t know what I’d do with it. So the answer is a definite “no”.

I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again.
For ten million bucks I’d do it at halftime, during the super bowl, on national TV. I’d do it GOOD, too. Put forth some effort!
If my friends had a problem with it, to hell with them. I could buy NEW friends, like that little cutie on survivor, the one with the pert little boobies. And then, we would move to an island paradise, and never work again, having sex constantly to burn the bad images out of my head.
I won’t even BEGIN to say what I’d do for $20 million.

That would definitely be catching. I am also more uncomfortable with an animal…I think. So I guess that means taking it from a donkey or something.
2.5 Mil. should do.

If I were not married – in a heartbeat.
While I am married, not even Salma Hayek in a vat of chocolate pudding.

In a heartbeat. Sex with another woman couldn’t be THAT bad.

Morals cost money. Preferences cost money. I wouldn’t kill someone for ten million, but the guy that goes about seven feet and five hundred pounds can put his lil willy where he wants for ten mil. I’m going to go out and buy a two foot jelly dong for practice.

Is the money Canadian or American?
Just kidding. for the most part, the answer would be no (If I need the money to save the life of my hypothetical child or something, I definatly do it).

It would definately depend on my circumstances such as if I were married or not and how bad I needed the money.
But right now at this moment **BRING IT ON**!
