Poll: Greater attention grabber: "sex" or "free"?

[Estocavio]

Neither for me - Honestly, when i see "Sex", i think, Liar. When i see "Free", i think, Liar. So... Yeah.

 

[Lance Arrow]

Why isn't there a 'Both' option?

I know 'Free sex' will definitely grab my attention.

E: Well since that has been ninja'd a billion times already, I'll have to go with 'sex'.

 

[onewheeled]

Being the teenage guy with raging hormones that I am, I'm gonna have to go with "Sex" as the better attention-grabber.

 

[Nouw]

'Free' could put food on the table for another week; 'free' could let you go to school.

It depends on who it is, their personality and probably age. I chose free.

 

[Booze Zombie]

"Free" and "sex" would probably work quite well together...

 

[badgersprite]

"Free Sex!" That would get my attention!

"Sex-free," though, not so much with the interest...

 

[Cid Silverwing]

With religions' hypocritical nipple-clamps on the populace, "free" is much more plausible.

 

[brunothepig]

Yeah, "free" carries the implication of an exchange that probably sucks on my end.

"Sex". on the other hand, doesn't catch my eye b/c half of the internet has a banner that says something like "meet local girls in your area" and something about "sex".

I'd say you should poll "Lactating" vs "Batman".

Batman. This is another one that would grab the most attention if you combine them. Come on, you'd totally be interested in advertisement that mentioned lactating batman.
I say free. But obviously I usually ignore both, since it's rarely true...

 

[ninjapenguin981]

I would say free. When it comes to online advertising however, it's usually sex purely because my mind's become so used to seeing 'You have one FREE prize, blah blah blah' that I tend to just skim over when I see free on the internet.

 

[latenightapplepie]

Free.

I find sex a little bit icky.

 

[Katherine Kerensky]

Well, being nonsexual, I'd have to say that free is obviously more of an attention grabber for me.

 

[tthor]

Sex. your mind is programmed to like the very idea of the word. advertisers know this, and use it thousands of times, especially with subliminal messaging. did you know that when Ritz crackers began, they would faintly imprint the word 'SEX' on each cracker. the word becomes so distorted after baking that it becomes nearly invisible, so you won't notice it consciously, but you will subconsciously, and when your subconscious mind sees the word 'SEX', it immediately associates it with good things

 

[smithy_2045]

Free, unless someone I really like is offering sex.

 

[Sovereignty]

SEX!

Honestly it's not even the idea of sex... It's that last letter. Anything that holds an x draws my eyes because it's not used as much.

Only reason I ever liked the X-Men...
