I'm kind of leaning in favor of the "contract" idea, as long as it's an actual contract - you know, one that is agreed to up front by both parties so that everybody (not just the party that the contract inevitably favors) knows how it's supposed to play out and what the consequences will be if it doesn't.

So when I showed up at your door and you opened it and invited me in, I'd let you know before I entered that I considered your invitation to constitute a binding agreement granting me access to your home for an indefinite period of time to be determined by me. And I'd also let you know what compensation I expected to receive should you decide to renege on that agreement at any time before I decided the indefinite period of time had expired. There, now that we're both clear on - if you'll just sign this - hey wait, what are you -

*slam*



Actually I'm even more interested in how this contract thing would work out in sexual encounters. Especially the compensation part. I've been pretty lucky lately, but in my younger years... I mean, if I had a nickel for every time some dude decided we were done before I was completely satisfied...
