k-dubjumps 0 #1 June 23, 2009 I am an avid fundraiser for the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLS) through their Team in Training (TNT) program. I made a fundraising arrangement with my DZO. For every tandem/video/AFF referral I send his way, the DZO will contribute varying amounts to my fundraising efforts. So far I've sent two tandems with video and two AFF graduates his way which as resulted in $270 towards my fundraising efforts so far. I started another thread the other day about men being intimidated by my skydiving and I made the comment that maybe I should post on craigslist asking if any hot guys wanted to go skydiving. A lightbulb went off. If any men actually respond and are serious about it, that's more referrals for me and more money for LLS. So I posted the ad on craigslist yesterday and have gotten a couple of respondents that seem to be legitimately interested. I'm laughing at myself because I do have standards when it comes to men, but I'm looking at some of the responses and thinking, "he'll do" (when he normally wouldn't) just because I want the contribution from my DZO. I kind of feel like I'm pimping myself out. Its OK if its for a good cause right? http://sfbay.craigslist.org/scz/w4m/1234835188.htmlAdrenaline is my crack DPH #3 D.S. #16 FAG #12 Muff Brother #4406 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thanatos340 1 #7 June 23, 2009 When even I look at something and think... "That is Kinda Tacky" you can pretty much be certain the bar has been lowered quite a bit. But you know what they say Sex Sells. Keep on Pimpin it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skymama 37 #8 June 23, 2009 You don't mention the cost of the tandem on the ad, it makes it sound like you'll be paying for it. Are the men responding thinking it's going to be free?She is Da Man, and you better not mess with Da Man, because she will lay some keepdown on you faster than, well, really fast. ~Billvon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've been responding to them with the cost and a link to the DZ site. There have only been two responses so far. I honestly didn't think I would get any. It was more of a joke more than anything else. I was feeling a little spunky at the time I posted it. And I am letting them know that they aren't my type, but if they still want to go skydiving to let me know. If nothing else, at least they would still have their minds blown.Adrenaline is my crack DPH #3 D.S. #16 FAG #12 Muff Brother #4406 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
