IS EVERY WOMAN WHO ASKS FOR MONEY BEFORE OR AFTER SEX, A PROSTITUTE?

I am asking this question because of what I have observed in recent times, a situation where it has now become a culture to offer money to lady before or after sex. It works either ways – the woman could make a hard or soft request for cash assistance, which could put you in her bad book {meaning: no more sex for another day} if you refuse. But most times the men don't wait to be asked, they just give it out easily so as to continue having it smooth. This is besides the preliminary dating game which makes it mandatory to spend some bucks on drinks, cigarettes and all that. This situation, I know, is caused by wide-spread poverty in Africa . But if the definition of the word prostitute be adhered to, does it therefore not followed that most women are prostitutes?

It is like that in United States too . . . women expect men to pay for everything - dinner, drinks, shopping sprees, etc. . . .  .The entire dating scene is a form of legalized prostitution. Women will deny it, but it’s true. I would say yes, that is prostitution.

No! Definitely not, especially when you’re mentioning the poverty thing. Maybe it is a way to see if the guy she’s gonna hook up with (maybe for life) can provide or not . . . like birds check out plumages!

If it looks like a duck and walks like a duck and quacks like a duck, it’s a duck. Money for sex is called prostitution, end of story.

                                                              - Cyboy

Prostitution is receiving money for any sexual act. No matter the reason behind it, if anyone receives money for performing a sexual act of any kind, she is a prostitute.

Well, that’s a hard question to answer. You see, you’ll find that most women do ask for or hint at the prospect that they will end up costing you SOMETHING before they have sex with you. Does this make “most” women prostitutes?

If a woman asks for money because of sex, she is prostituting herself. For example, you have sex then she expects you to pay her. If she just expects you to take her to dinner or buy her flowers, that is not prostitution; that is being in a relationship. A lot of women expect a man to take care of them financially. Or at least they hope that a man will offer to do so. If a man never takes initiative in being romantic (like buying flowers or taking her to dinner) a woman is going to be less likely to want to have sex, because she is unhappy emotionally.

                                                                   - Mendi

A woman do sex for three reasons: (1) she is in love with the man she is sleeping with. (2) His wife (3) To get money

If sex was done in category 3: YES she is a prostitute

                                                                           - Pao

Unfortunately, yes. Once money is transferred, it becomes a service.
