About this Quote

Groucho Marx was known for his amusing and often ironical humor. This quote is an ideal example of his design. He is poking fun at the concept of keeping an invoice for a sexual encounter. It suggests that sex is a deal, and that it can be quantified and recorded. It also suggests that the experience was not particularly memorable or meaningful. The quote is amusing, however it also speaks to the idea that sex can be transactional and not always an intimate experience. It is a suggestion that sex can be a source of enjoyment, but it can also be a source of discomfort and confusion. Groucho Marx's quote is a reminder to be conscious of the power dynamics at play in sexual encounters and to be knowledgeable about the possible repercussions.
