The cost (per notch) of being a "John"

"All this love for free! Better come and get some!"
This picture can be explained by reading this "Cost per Notch" blogpost. And it's not referring to a literal "notch", but the figurative "notch on your belt" that fellas often refer to.

A co-worker of mine sent me a link to the post and I couldn't help but crack up after I read it because this really is an example of how much (or little, or both, depending on your perspective) sense things make when you really sit down and think about them. It's also funny because I would never have thought to have broken down the cost of fine-dining to get some "action" versus the cost of paying an escort (read as: "skunt-rat") for a "good time." The latter isn't even an option in my mind. But, like most men, I have participated in the former even if getting some "action" wasn't my intention. But I guess no matter how you look at it and no matter which way you end up having relations with someone, you're paying in some sort of way.

While I think the "Cost per Notch" blogpost is quite entertaining, I also think it took a LOT of effort to sit back and put a monetary value on the amount of money you spent solely in the pursuit of some azz. But I guess when you're just trying to get some action and not really trying to get to know someone, the money matters a lot more than it would otherwise.

But all I can think of is: "You ni**as ain't players mayne, ya'll some PAYERS!"

Right! Clowns! I like how "certain people" make a distinction between "escorts" and prostitutes. I really don't even though I know some people say they use escorts just to have company when they "come into town".

It's all dumb and kinda sad when you're so pressed that you will pay an escort for company (what does that say about you) or just to get some azz. The whole taking a girl out to get what you want "game" is another blogpost all to itself.

Anyway, thank you for stopping by. Come back soon!
