Alas, I am worth the same in bed as Eri. There must be something wrong with me! But maybe that was evident by the fact I took the quiz.

Apparently I'm worth $1086, but I'll take the best offer.

Entirely hypothetical question: If I'm worth $1086 in bed, and you're worth $1193, if we were to sleep together would I have to pay you the difference?

All the questions make a difference.

As a well-travelled, highly educated woman, I would be more akin to a Japanese geisha or a court mistress than a streetwalker. I could discuss literature and art and generally make my presence very enjoyable in a social setting. My time and company would be worth a lot, and not just in the bedroom.

It seems you've given this some thought. You make yourself sound like Inara from Firefly.

Too many Firefly re-runs, perhaps. But seriously, am I the only one who actually thinks about what a question might mean for the results on a quiz? Nobody else thought Hey, I wonder how this is relevant?

I posted my original score with my most honest answers (I didn't even notice until about halfway through that it was keeping a running tally bar above the questions). Then wondering if I could boost my score I went back and tried it several other ways on questions I was waffling on initially. all returned lower scores. :p of course I was multivariable shifting I didn't have the patience to try single variables to see how much they changed the score, so imy results are completely useless in evaluating how certain answers actually change the final score.

But... supply and demand! You have to remember that one essential consideration in moral decision making is asking "what if everybody did what I'm going to do?" By that standard, you're in the RIGHT profession ;)

Even changing my answers resulted in a lower number. And I really don't see how many of those questions matter in bed...

What did you guys see in the card thing? First thing I saw was a face, and then I saw a uterus. There was, however, no uterus option so I went with a face. :P
