"It doesn't seem to bother you."

"Of course not. A woman is entitled to get gang banged whenever she wants. That's a tenet of liberation."

"Oh," said Jayne.

Jayne considered herself a woman in the natural sense and, therefore, was not much interested in women's liberation, but she could see that there were certain advantages in the movement if you approached it the way that Anna did.

"But you aren't married, are you?" she said.

"Naw, nor likely to be. I play the field."

"But I am."

"So?"

"Well, a happily married woman can't very well go around getting gang banged."

"I don't see why not."

"Well, gee…"

"As long as your husband doesn't find out."

"I just wouldn't feel right about it."

"To each her own. You're faithful to your husband, huh? Is he faithful, too?"

"Oh, yes."

"Sounds boring."

Jayne smiled and shrugged.

"Aren't you going to screw a single man tonight?" Anna asked, looking distressed at the thought.

"Of course not!"

"Everyone will think you're a prude. And you won't get a raise, either. I got three raises last year, just for doing what I like to do, anyhow. The secret is to get your boss real horny by playing with his dick or showing him your pussy or something like that, and then you tell him you won't let him fuck you because, being so underpaid, you don't feel entitled to fuck a rich executive, it works every time, as long as you get him hot enough to begin with."

"Why, that's terrible!" Jayne exclaimed, but she was laughing as she said it.

"It works."

"It's almost like being a whore!"

"Yeah, I thought about that. But that's okay. I wouldn't mind being a whore, as far as that goes. If I wasn't an overpaid secretary, I'd probably be a high-priced whore. There isn't much difference."
