    Which line works best?

    I want to do a little experiment. I will go into a bar and ask all the single ladies this question. I want to see how many times I have to ask before a woman agrees.

    What is the best way to frame this question?

    1. "I want to have sex with you now"

    2. "Do you want to have sex with me now?"

    3. "Can we have sex?"
