    An unscientific poll on The Press website last night showed that by a wide margin both men and women would choose the cash

    I assume they're talking US dollars, which at time of writing, GBP1:00 = US$1:83
    Therefore we're looking at £27,322:40 pa extra.

    Done.

    I just knew we'd see this phrase crop up in the article:
    no-sex-please-we're-British

    Could be NZ dollars they're talking about, which today is $NZ1 = £0.3341.

    In which case it's a disappointing £16,705.

    I wonder if that would change anybody's vote ...

    I assumed they meant USD, since the study was carried out by American colleges, on American data.

    The trouble is... sex is very much like money: the less you have the more important it seems.

    I'd take the cash and employ a tasty young secretary with it.

    I'd take the cash and employ a tasty young secretary with it.
    and then get for sued for sexual harrassment? (probably to the tune of about 30k)

    Let's be clear here: option 2 won't just be the routine 'service the spouse to keep them sweet' type deals, we are talking red hot, lustful, ground shaking encounters of wild passion, here.

    (I'd still take the cash)

    Where's your vote then? You should put it where your :o is



    At the moment, it looks like skeptics are more Greedy than they are Lustful by the overwhelming margin of 3 to none.

    What's next - a poll which gives you a choice between Sloth and Glottony

    I'd probably vote in that one, if only the apathy doesn't get in the way

    Sex is not limitless. It has a wide boundary, sure, but it falls within 'sex'. Whereas money is the gateway to practically anything.

    However, it would have to be a LOT of money. I would give up sex for...£5million.

    I can still jerk off though, right?

    :D

    There's always that option.

    Hmmm..... I'm wondering if I should have gone for the money after all.

    Sex?

    I know Courtney Pine would probably opt for sax :D
    And Ian Botham would go for six.
    OTOH lovers of dry vermouth would go for sec.

    Vintage Cider @ 8.4% highly recommended
