Do you think that it is more or less expensive to have sex with your spouse or with a pro? (NSFW)

Asked by Dan_Lyons (5527points) April 15th, 2014

I read in a recent thread, ” ...Sex with a spouse results in bigger “family expenses, bigger home, bigger car, school, child care, health care, vacations…”

And sex with a pro; payments end ” when the service provider leaves.”

One is surely more costly than the other. Emotionally, fiscally, spiritually, genderly…you name it.

Way cheaper with a pro.

But now that I am divorced, I have discovered the third option. Sex with other guys wives.

Sex with a pro is far more dangerous on several levels. If it cost you your life that’s a pretty steep price.

I don’t know what the rest of you are doing, but sex with a partner has never cost me anything.

Well, it would be foolish for him to pay for something he never had.

_…Sex with a spouse results in bigger “family expenses, bigger home, bigger car, school, child care, health care, vacations A weird supposition.

Why is this a given? During the years of my marriage, when we had sex all the time, our budget stayed pretty much the same. We liven in the same house, drove the same cars, kept our kids in the same school, took the same vacations and had the same health care program. Child care cost less as the kids got older,

Sex with a pro is temporary, sex with a spouse just might secure you someone to stir the oatmeal with in another 40 years provided you aren’t stirring your wild oats with prostitutes in the meanwhile.
Better do a balance sheet.
Hooker today, someone to make me oatmeal when I’m 80. lol

Working my ass off and knowing when I come home there is my wife and kids happy, healthy and secure waiting for me is priceless. I would much rather masturbate than have sex with a “pro” person who has no vested interest in me other than my wallet. No comparison. Yuck!

Really depends on the income the spouse is bringing in. Plus some pros can cost you a lot more in heath costs. But actually I don’t think you can compare the two in cash value.

But studies have been done and single people have a higher mortality rate than married people during their middle ages. So I don’t know how you would place a dollar value on a longer life. I’ve also known a lot of single people who are totally broke because they spend their money faster than it comes in because they figure spending it all is better than giving it to the government. You don’t have to be married to be a foolish with money. And depending on the hooker, you can spend way more monthly on one and live in a crappy apartment.

But you are comparing sex with a hooker to the lifestyle of being married. Even unmarried you have a lifestyle. If you like to go out to bars or self medicate with drugs, gamble, buy expensive things, call out sick a lot because you are hung over, and order out a lot and take expensive vacations, and see a therapist to vent because you have no one in your life to vent too, or date a lot and pay for all the dinners out, then it probably comes out more expensive not to be married.

~Why pay for no-strings sex when you can get the same thing for free at any seedy nightclub or a military bar?

Sex with a pro could break my marriage. That would probably be the most expensive event I can imagine.

Now… Sex with my wife will solidify my marriage and it costs nothing…

Didn’t you guys learn anything in economics? Once you are married, the costs of your spouse are ‘sunk’ costs. They are fixed. So from there look at the cost impacts of your decisions.

Not having sex with your spouse would probably be most expensive.

my wife is probably making more than she spends, so budgetary positive anyway

Sex with a whore cheapens both participants, as does humping another blokes wife.
So yeah, sex with the wife is more expensive, because she’s priceless.
