Perfect comment after TFA, "and the difference between this and some marriages would be? Oh.. wait.. the sex... of course"

FTA: One advertisement offering free rent for a female to "share a room' was placed by a 32-year-old Auburn man calling himself Atiq.

He wants some flowers in the Atiq.

/got less than nothing.

I am going out on a limb here, but I think this might just be an ad for

flatmates.com.au

You know, one of those slow news day kind of things.

I have room on my couch. If we're organized about it, we can stack 4 deep.

Heck, I've got an entire finished basement that some lovely young lady could use. Full bath, bar with mini kitchen, the works. A few minutes a week of her time, and she would be able to live rent free.

/Now only if I could get my wife to agree with this arrangement
//or put out more than once a month

Probably better than Joe's Apartment

One Question: Does this work?

"Yes, I am alone and the rent would be free. I am looking for a girl to share my room and, yes, in the same bed,' he said.

Atiq said he had migrated from Pakistan eight months ago and that a friend had placed the ad for him.

"I'm not that kind of person,' he said. "But, yes, it would possibly involve sex.'

The offer stands, but he doesn't actually own a bed, or have a room.

I guess if you approach this more as a "singles" ad than a "rental" ad, it makes sense. People put out singles ads all the time. There are even websites devoted to such things. (eHarmony comes to mind)

But anyone agreeing to such a thing better be careful - on both sides, "landlord" and "tenant". A certain perverse sense of humour is required, I think.

I live in Australia, so I am getting a kick out of, hold on.
"...only hot, 19-19 and 1/2 year old girls apply, only for companionship, I'm not that kind of person. But, yes, it would possibly involve sex."

and send.

So marriage rates are up?

I would have to advertise "looking for Beautiful French Lesbian Maid to work for free in exchange for free rent."

Let nature take it's course.

In other news, apparently the housing shortage in sydney is so severe that somebody who moved from pakistan 8 months ago has no problems finding a flat.

Ass, gas or grass.

BigBooper: //or put out more than once a month

Dude, you're already way ahead of the curve...

I can't believe I'm the first person to say this, but in regard to the lady in the photograph - I'd room and board it.

Rule #1 - be good-looking

Bogus!

Check Craigslist (new window)

Sounds an awful lot like my marriages.

Guy: So, you've been here a month.
Girl: Yep.
Guy: Well, time to pay the rent.
Girl: Uh, no. You see, I've decided that my value is at least $2000 where as you're rent is worth $200. So, I'll pay in in nine more months.
Guy: Nine months? Well, that's still more often than before.

Nine Months later

Guy: It's been ten months. Time to pay up.
Girl: Nope. You see, I've made improvements to my property while you let yours decline. Look at this nice bra I bought and look at those old curtains. Also, we have to adjust for inflation. The housing market has declined while my value has increased. My lady friend lawyer can explain it to you or me and the lawyer can kiss and we'll call it a deal.
Guy: Kiss and call it a deal.

Holy mother of god - that girl Sonya on that website may well be the hottest woman I've ever seen. Ever.

white: FTA: One advertisement offering free rent for a female to "share a room' was placed by a 32-year-old Auburn man calling himself Atiq.

I don't know, if I were going to offer a room in exchange for sex, I would probably offer something better than an Atiq.

Not too sure about the common law rules and regs. down under. But I'm sure some of the gals might want a place just long enough to call a lawyer for support papers to be served.
It might go something like this in the proceedings.
Do you live in the same residence ? Yes.
Do you have separate rooms ? Uh no.
What was the rental agreement from the first day ? Umm she'd give it up every now and then and there would be no rent charged to her.
So what you are saying is you have taken a woman off the streets and given her a reasonably decent place to stay in exchange for a relationship ? Pretty much.
Yeah that qualifies. Support payments 2000/month for life. ZOMG Haxxorz !!!

Back in the days before no-fault divorces and custody traps, this arrangement was commonly known as "marriage."

There is a word that is perfect for this situation, but it escapes me....

A description for a woman trading sex for material reward....

Anybody wanna help me out here?

Are you saying there is pron on the internet?

/Interesting

I love mikesapartment.com but am also a fan of in the V.I.P room and milfhunters.com

Just sharing if somebody doesnt know what mikes apartment is (It's a Porn site)

Bomb Head Mohammed:

Well, he might have taken a flat he can't really afford, because singles get screwed by the rental market. After all, a one-bedroom costs 90% what a two does. So he rented a two, and hoped to find a roomie (in this case, a shameless western woman with loose morals like his mom back home warned him about).

Loud_Mouth_Soup:

*Googles it*

You mean "skeevy, unarousing internet porn".

Old news. See this crap everyday on Craigslist. Doesn't seem to be working for them judging from the weekly repeats. Or maybe the deal is only good for one week.

I love how in the article, the guys are the sleazy ones. The women, the prostitutes and whores, yeah they're OK, but the guys are sleazy.

"I'm not that kind of person,' he said. "But, yes, it would possibly involve sex.'
he forgot to mention unshaven legs and pits are required

/ llama style FTW

Of course we're branding the guys the sleazy ones. They're the ones advertising. The moment we find one woman who accepts the offer, we can start calling her sleazy too.

/Or devious
//Be very afraid!
///What could possibly go wrong?

Why didn't I think of that???
