The Pros and Cons of Hooking Up With a Man Whore

October 3, 2008 - 6:00 pm By Lauren - University of Michigan

Last weekend the biggest man whore on campus asked me to go home with him. My first reaction was, “Hell yeah! HE KNOWS WHO I AM…and he wants to do me!!!” Which was immediately followed by, “Ew, do I have to get tested for STDs cuz he just talked to me!?”

I said no that night (and by “said no” I mean “spent the rest of the night on the bathroom floor vomiting up Jimmy Johns and Jameson”), but I have been thinking about it ever since. I mean, we are Facebook friends now, so the opportunity is obvi still there.

I have always been a big fan of pro/con lists, so I am going to make one here. So, here it is: The Pros and Cons of Hooking Up With a Major Man Whore. I hope this helps if you are ever presented with such a conundrum.

Pro: He is obviously totally wanted by every girl ever

Con: He has put his penis into a whole lot of ladies

Pro: He, in theory, knows what he’s doing – he’s gotten enough practice

Con: He’s never really had a consistent partner so he may be repeating his mistakes over and over and over again.

Pro: He finds me sexy

Con: He has found 98% of the campus sexy at one point

Pro: Potentially awesome sex

Con: Potentially itchy rash… down there

Pro: If he’s bad, I can be the one to tell the world

Con: If I’m bad, he’s totally gonna have a billion people to compare it to…and tell

Pro: I can tell everyone that I conquered Mount Man Whore.

Con: After I tell everyone, they will judge me for being yet another notch on his tattered belt.

It looks like the cons far outweigh the pros. But maybe I missed something? Like the fact that I’ve been experiencing at 3 month dry spell and am thisclose to humping a desk!?

    I definitely think a manwhore would be super selfish in bed, and I think your suspicion that he might suck in bed from having too many different partners is totally valid. You’re better off bragging that the manwhore totally wanted you, instead of actually letting him have you :)

    THIS CLOSE TO HUMPING A DESK!! haahaaa

    just go for it, sometimes you just need a hookup, and if he’s, even better,

    plus, its better to randomly hook up with a man whore than a good guy who you’ll hurt…

    Ha! This is funny considering that you’re a total whore, too. Wouldn’t he have the same thought of “oh my god if I do this ho I’m going to have to get tested” in his head?

    Why thank you, Em. But i am good and clean, so he need not worry!

    HAHAHAHA that is the same thing I was thinking. The pot is call in the kettle black.

    Concerning the repeating mistakes thing: I lost my virginity to a manwhore, and, even in my stunted scope of knowledge, the guy DEF was not repeating any mistakes. His technique was like, honed. Plus, since your particular manwhore is so well-known, I’m pretty sure you would’ve heard about it by now if he’s not great at what he (so frequently) does.

    Oh, and I can related to the desk-humping urges! My benefriend just had a friend die, so it would be totally inappropriate for me to proposition him right now. It’s been weeks.

    Good luck!

    I also think it depends on the size of your “community”. I stayed in my college town after graduation and still go to my favorite bar and hang with a fairly tight crowd. If you don’t know someone, you know their friend, that sort of thing.

    We have a couple of man whores, one who is well-known for having a large penis. And really, when you find out someone has hooked up with him, there’s not a lot of judgment. Sometimes you just want to see what all the hype is about! And no one really spends a lot of time gossiping about it because we’ve come to expect it from this guy.

    Wait, why is it something to brag about to “conquer” a manwhore? By definition, he has no standards.

    Yeah, keep putting morons like this manwhore up on a pedestal, then keeping whining about how there aren’t any good guys anymore.

    I know what you mean in this article! I had the opportunity with the “man whore”. Turned him down because I didn’t want to look easy, but he was really hot and besides, you know he only judges on looks. Seeing as I was never considered the “pretty” one in high school, it’s an ego boost even if he was just another jerk.

    “Yeah, keep putting morons like this manwhore up on a pedestal, then keeping whining about how there aren’t any good guys anymore.”

    There aren’t any good guys anymore because girls always go for the total douchebags in society. Nice guys finish last, and they’re finally starting to figure that out. Except me, I guess. But I’m just dumb.

    You get what you give. This is why girls who sleep around and for whom sex is the equivalent of a handshake always end up with losers. You do it to yourselves ladies, because your standards are so low. I respect and love women but find it disappointing to see that so many of you treat sex like a commodity. I say go for the manwhore, you both seem to deserve and want each other.

  12. Sophie says:

    Uh these comments, what is up? If you have nothing nice or PRODUCTIVE to say, then dont say it at all?

    Anyways!

    It is so bomb that he wanted you to come home, what is even more awesome is that you said no! You are going to be girl, in the slew of many others who turned him down! Props to shaking up that cycle, girl. : )

    it amazes me how one can say such nasty things about someone they do not even know.

    and mark, i suggest you take a good look at the male community before you say girls treat sex like a commodity.

    Manwhores think they know what they are doing and will NOT consider you.

  15. Mark says:
    Sat, 4th Oct 20083:12 pm 

    I am certainly not denying the fact that many guys are douchebags. It’s just sad to see this kind of behavior and view on sex in both men and women. Girls, sleeping with random guys and being promiscuous is not the way you’re going to attract respectable, classy, successful men. Why settle for less than what you really want in a guy? What are we whoring ourselves out for anyways? Where’s the love?

  16. J - NYU says:
    Sat, 4th Oct 20084:56 pm 

    I’m not sure where the love is, Mark. You should talk to Justin Timerblake. I think he asked that same question once…

    Oh puhhhlease people, what’s with you guys? Mark has a point and it’s nice to see a guy with the maturity and balls to bring up these issues. I’m afraid there’s nothing glamorous about being a slut or a player, just a whole lot of emptiness and STDs in the end. Good on Lauren for saying no to the manwhore!!!

    k so i definetly agree with saying no to chlamydia…but umm get some. Not from him since clearly thats way too risky…but you can’t seriously not have a hookup option. get it on and get happy and dont get chlamydia..lol

    I’ve done the manwhore hook up. Not only do they have the technique down, they’ve got the hook up process down too. The manwhore I was with knew he was a whore, so he took all of the precautions to make sure he wasn’t careless with the wrong girl.

    Then I turned it into a relationship. That’s what I call ACTUALLY conquering Mount Man Whore.

    “Nerds” and guys who may think that you’re out of they’re league (so to speak) make good lovers, because they’re so eager to please. You may have to be completely in control of everything (which I find annoying) but they’re less likely to have STDs. Also.. a side story(that I’m not really proud of now that I’m older) There was this total manwhore hitting on me at this bar… saying he wanted to take me home etc. I was from out of town and said that I had a FWB back home that could lick pussy than anyone… so this manwhore saw this as a challenge… I went home wit hhim, me went down on me, and then I left.

    our generation, so freely and clearly enjoying this “sexual liberation,” is in for a rude awakening in about 10 years…when all the women suddenly cant have babies because all the random sex and stds have screwed up their reproductive systems and all the men have throat cancer from oral sex with girls who have hpv…which is silently spreading like wildfire.

    its like its some crazy free-for-all…

    And why would any confident, self-respecting young woman even risk being just another notch on some guys belt?

    if he sleeps with that many girls, he’s probably used to a fair number saying no to him. I have a good friend who’s a man whore (only with asians) and he’s never a dick about it, he always spends the night with the girl, there’s always post-coital cuddling, he pays for everything, and considering I once spent a night in a hotel suite (in the other room) while he was taking care of business with the lay of the day, I can account to the fact that she came, multiple times, by how incredibly loud she was, hence, that implies that he’s not selfish, because he is interested in making her come.

  25. Bunnie says:
    Fri, 10th Oct 20086:57 am 

    My boyfriend is far and away the best lay I’ve ever had, and he has only been with two other women before me – this I know to be fact, having known him since we started high school (we’re now 21). I’ve been with a number of guys so I do have a basis for comparison. But in general, he’s just a much nicer guy. And that doesn’t mean he’s a “nice guy” (a synonym of “woose”), he is actually exciting and fun too.

    I got the perfect package. And I like to brag. Heh.

  26. Bryan says:
    Fri, 10th Oct 20085:49 pm 

    Bunnie, I’m really not trying to start any problems in your relationship, but be careful who you brag to. Speaking from the perspective of being a former manwhore myself, I used to LOVE when girlfriends would brag to their friends about how good the sex was. You will find that some of your closest friends will stab you in the back to get a taste of what you are bragging about.

    …and to Lauren, I say go ahead, but make him take you out a few times first. If he has been with alot of girls, he may be getting tired of all the games and ready for a good, healthy relationship with someone he couldn’t get in bed the first time he tried, then it’s potentially many nights of great sex with you and you only (if you are willing to do everything he needs to please him sexually)

    In lieu with “Anonymous Coward ”

    I’ve been with one particular man whore who pays for everything, takes me places, introduce me to his friends, and intice me. This person was intelligent and has money ( I make as much $$ as him. He didn’t know this. I didn’t want to bust his ego.) He simply was a giving person. This person treated me like the queen of the thrown for months but yet he is a man whore unknowing until later. In bed, he’s OK. I’ve had better, but his intentions to lavish me with his kindness arroused me. I ended the relationship with obvious reasons but yet he yearns for more from me. I’m not a slut by all means. I actually cared for him but I knew I had to end crazy roller coaster ride/relationship because in the end I would be the one that would get hurt. Did I tame the wild beast? I think not. To him it’s the thrill of the chase to see if I would fall for him. Unfortunte with this individual, he didn’t realize that it takes a LONG time for me to fall in love with any man. I have brothers who are man whores too. Sorry guys. I see them a mile away. I may be attracted to you but I don’t respect you to be with you. YOU ARE NOT DESERVING ENOUGH TO BE WITH ME!!!
