4 weekends a year: An Indecent Proposal
My wife, Julie, is a forensic accountant. She specifically is an FBI special agent. I, Tom Johnson, am a junior college professor of mathematics. We are perfectly matched in that we are both cold bloodedly analytical. I was not a virgin when we met, but thxat she took advantage of the sexual education opportunities of college was well known, if not legendary. When we started dating, she continued this education with myself as well as others. Julie was delighted when I asked for an exclusive relationship, and for the next year and one half I had no doubt of her faithfulness.
Physical descriptions: Julie is five foot five inches tall one hundred and thirty pounds, and on the hot scale, eight out of ten. I am five foot ten inches and one hundred eighty pounds, solidly built. My problem is my penis, depending from where you measure, is five inches and thin. You can say low normal or the high side of small.
When I asked Julie for her hand in marriage, I got the icy hard analysis that I expected.
"There is no one that I know that I want to spend a life with, and have children with, more than you. If I had to have sex with only one person for the rest of my life, it would be you. But I have had sex with men who have given me different pleasures than you. Rather than give up those pleasures for the rest of my life, I would give up marriage. I will accept your proposal on the following basis. I will not forsake all others. Once a season, four times a year, I will have a weekend where I will be free to have sex, not romance, with other men. I will never have the same man twice. You, of course, can have the equivalent. Safer sex is a requirement for both of us. You understand that this means that by our silver anniversary, I will have cuckholded you with one hundred different men. My advice to you: Laugh in my face. Tell me I am crazy. You know that, contrary to popular conception, there is a plentiful number of virgins in this city that desire nothing more than to have sex with one man only for their whole lives. Marry one and have a contented life."
"While your advice is excellent, if obvious, tell me in a little more detail how our marriage would work, if I was crazy enough to accept your plan."
"We will start with finances. We are both well paid civil servants with health plans, insurance, and retirement. If our spending is reasonably sane, we should have no money problems. We will have a joint checking account to which we will equally contribute for household expenses and an emergency fund. We will have a joint stock account to which we will equally contribute for savings. What is left over will go into individual accounts for our hobbies, including sex. I realize that sex is much more easily available for women. To even up, you will probably have to pay for it. On the positive side, I expect professional sex is on average better. I will not have our marriage dissolve, because what seems tolerable in theory, is a mess in practice. My first weekend will be this one. The barista at Dunkin Doughnuts has been hitting on me. Unless he uses a codpiece, he is well equipped. I will hire a moderately priced hotel room, and both you and I will have an experience. Mine will likely be more pleasant."
