we bonded immediately, hung out all the time
later on i discovered she wasn't speaking in pure metaphors, that she indeed had sucked many a dick because it either advanced her career or improved her grades and academic standing - this had been a great success as a somewhat intelligent and attractive young woman had now attended the most prestigious schools with the most glowing recommendations and introductions and high level jobs at big companies as she sought out influential dicks since high school
yet when i learned that she wasn't talking about the act of dick sucking abstractly - but rather was literally suggesting that i should go and suck some dick like she did, i lost all respect for her and our relationship withered as a result because i no longer saw her as the funny and witty and strongly independent person who just got it and would joke around with locker talk - instead i just saw a dick sucker
i often think about this dynamic, how when it was intangible and abstract with a go getter attitude it was something a genuinely admired but when i found out that it existed in the real world i was repulsed

Interesting story.
There are still these little areas of life that go on behind closed doors and we can't really know much about them. How common is this? We can only guess. I'm sure it's a lot less common now, as a lot of guys would be afraid of getting in trouble, even if the woman initiated it.
Some of my older female friends talked about it once and they both had stories of male supervisors asking them for sexual favors in exchange for preferential treatment.
About 10 years ago, one of my friends found some girl on craigslist offering a BJ for concert tickets. Radiohead I think it was. She got his tickets. Said she was decent looking too.
