      It depends on how desperate the man is, and how attractive the woman is, I'm guessing.

      The stereotype that all men are going to be so grateful for such an offer doesn't always ring true. Believe it or not, but there are some gentlemen out there who only really equate sex with love in a relationship, who would have been put off by such an approach.

              How hard is it to find the right tat shop in Bracknell, especially with a load of sledges stacked outside?

                      One of the protaganists negged me for this thread
