A hidden consequence of the gig economy is that workers keep asking customers for sex or dates::"People have the right to order a pizza ... without then being asked for sex or a date."

What is “asking for sex?” I know it sounds dumb but is this a thing people really do? How do they say it? “Hey any chance I could have some sex?” “Spare any sex?” “Here’s your food want to fuck?”

And does anyone ever say yes????

"Oh dear! I seem to have misplaced my wallet. Is there... Some other way I could pay?"

Only it's a weird and creepy (possibly ugly even) dude saying it to a young woman who just wants to pay her rent and is delivering for DoorDash on the side.

Clearly. Humans only do things that work.

I’m a man so I have no idea. But I have heard some stories. It must be gross.

What words do people use to “ask for sex?” I have some idea what flirting is. I have some idea what hitting on someone is. I don’t know what it actually looks like to “ask for sex.”
