Why not...

The day I married my wife, we had sex and I handed over my soul....

Not in the soppy sense I mean in the "your soul is mine now little man, you are my minion" type way.

Handing over a few possessions seems trivial.

So, if I'm reading this correctly, we're talking about prostitutes.

Nerd prostitutes.

Nerd prostitutes on a barter system.

Hypothetically.

Hypothetical nerd barter prostitutes.

Helluva thread.

It was either this or writing a short story on an erotic fiction board. I really should point out that the question isn't whether or not I'd use prostitutes (probably no). The question would be if I was willing to give up something non-monetary and intangible in exchange for something equally non-monetary and intangible. I think I'd probably feel pretty guilty, though.

On the other hand why don you just make friends with them and you might get to have sex for free.
You and your unflappable logic. In my mind, giving away Star Wars toys I don't use and I didn't pay for technically is free - kind of cancels out the "I NO USE PROSTITUTES" argument from so many people. It's probably my low self esteem striking back, making me think I have nothing to offer the opposite sex but material possessions (though in this particular case, I do feel that's the case).

Well. You'll pretty much be trading memories for memories, so it's really a subjective decision of which memories you'd treasure more: Childhood memories or kinky, kinky sex-memories.
Generally, I think I'd go with keeping the childhood memorabilia. Pass the toys down to future generations and such.
Then they can trade them in for sexual favours, if they so please.

But never go back on a deal, that's dishonest.
If I'm 25 years old and I'm asking these sorts of questions on a message board, the odds of "future generations" seem increasingly dim. And yeah, one could "go back on a deal" but they would know where I lived and would possess the ability to slash my car tires at their leisure. (But then I could always threaten to tell their friends they fucked me for Star Wars toys.)

No, for a few reasons:

I value my prized childhood posessions more than the possibility of sex with strangers.

Sex with people who don't actually want to have sex with me, who just want my stuff, sounds like shitty sex.

It's basically prostitution, and while I support the legalisation of prostitution, I still think it's on shakey moral grounds and would therefore not partake in it.

Also:

If you had sex with them, and then refused to give them the possessions, I'd call that rape. They consented under certain conditions, and if those conditions were not fulfilled (you didn't give them the possessions) then they haven't consented. Rape.

Way to bum everyone out for what was previously a fun thread. I just wanted a neutral option in the poll. The rape argument seems like a stretch and a little insulting to people who have actually been raped. Rape means sex without consent. The sex as it was happening would be consensual and the possibility of the person not receiving said "thing" for the sex would be evident from the get go. It's a known risk. It's kind of like saying that someone who catches a sexually transmitted disease they were "raped" or someone who gets pregnant accidentally was "raped." Having conditions regarding sexual contact change after the fact happens every day and it's not rape. It's the random nature of sex and what makes prostitution a crummy job. See: pimps.

If every person who was dishonest to get sex was a rapist... I don't even know what to put here.

Sorry, didn't mean to take the tone down, I was just thinking aloud.

Hmm, I'm still not convinced about the legality of it all though. Like I said, I see it as conditional consent, and if the conditions aren't met then it isn't consent.

Anyway, like I said, thinking aloud, sorry for bum everyone out.

No, no, it is a reasonable question upon further examination. Maybe consider something like beer googles for example. This person looked like a really good candidate to have sex with until the next morning. On the condition of being buzzed, this seemed like a really good idea.

Don't get me wrong, cheating someone out of what they are owed in a "sex for object" situation makes a guy a douchebag, but not necessarily a rapist in my mind. Since you can't have sex with somebody in exchange for anything legally in most of this country, there isn't a really a law for that. (Yet another reason prostitution should be legal.)

I think where it is legal, I would imagine it would fall more under the category of theft, rather than rape. It's more equivalent to skipping out on a bill at a restaurant.

That would really depend on the value of the items. About $200 worth of memorabilia and below per session seems about right.

I find this to be a highly improbable hypothetical. Now giving George Lucas a blowjob in return for a proper transfer of the original trilogy...

Really surprised with the tone of responses so far:
Oh no, paying for sex! Prositution! That's so wrong... Adult man playing with children's toys. So so right.

If the opportunity presents itself - I say go for it. Ultimately *most* people don't keep childhood toys forever, you'll either throw them out, give them away or sell them, so why not trade for sex? sounds like a win to me.

Also, you ALWAYS pay for sex. Somehow, someway, you always pay.

I have never been desperate enough to pay for sex with either cash, or my 1981 Slave I with Han Solo in carbonite.

Well it would depend on the item and the girl. I wouldn't give away something that I got for my 6th birthday by my deceased Aunt, for example, but something less-sentimental from my childhood I'd give away if the girl made me a little, ahem, yeah. Some old shit in a wooden box collecting dust in exchange for sex with a fine looking woman is better than hard earned money for the same thing.

You just told us that you plan on having a wild threesome by giving the other two people toys.

...

...

I have no idea what I'm doing here.

Me: So, there's an Escapist thread where the OP wants to trade Star Wars memorabilia with two girls in exchange for a wild, kinky threesome.

Friend: ...

Friend: Maybe if it was a life-sized Dalek, but otherwise, hell no!

So basically your question is, would I use a prostitute if I had to pay her in possessions rather than money? Since I have no intention of hiring a hooker any time soon, my answer to that is no.
^This. All you're asking is if you'd do the above in a geeky way.

No, not necessarily. It's not like I'm going to Target right now, buying a stormtrooper, and then exchanging it for sex. These are cherished childhood artifacts we're talking about here, stuff from before the prequels and flawed DVD releases that soured me on the whole series. Innocence. I have an emotional connection to these pieces of plastic. It's more equivalent to, I don't know, a teddy bear or stuffed animal you loved.

A sound voice of reason right here. I'd just rather not pay for it through these particular means, but I mean if it's the only way... Therein lies the dilemma.

no way.
presents are better suited for relationships (although in this case your collectibles would not be presents but payment)
but if you need to buy sex, use cash instead of stuff of value - an one-night-stand is definitely not worth prized possessions

Do what would make you more happy;
if having sexy will make you more happy than holding on to your childhood toys, go for it. Do what makes you happy.

So recently, I've met a couple of local Star Wars fans who just so happen to be very attractive single women. They wear Star Wars clothes, have Star Wars jewelry, and have gotten Star Wars tattoos. They like to drink, smoke, and appear to be, for lack of a better word, a touch "loose." I'm not going to use "that" word, but some people might describe them that way. Neither of them seem especially interested in me personally, they probably don't want to date, and I don't think we'd have much a future together anyways. While I may not be the world's biggest Star Wars fan anymore, I still have all the neat toys and collectibles I accumulated in my childhood as gifts. It's some pretty neat stuff, though I never play with it anymore.

I honestly don't think anything will happen between me and these females, but this poses an interesting hypothetical (and somewhat kinky fantasy). Would you give away your Star Wars toys (or any treasured childhood memorabilia) in exchange for sexual favors as an adult?

I could honestly go both ways right now. On the one hand, I like knowing I still have all these things, I'm not desperate for sex without a relationship, and I don't entirely feel like they're mine to give away since I got most of them from my parents as a little kid. On the other hand, it would be a really fucked up story, would probably be my only chance to have group sex, and would free up some closet space.
Dude... you have to just for the story.

Dear Penthouse forum,

I never thought liking Star Wars would help me get laid....

May the Pussy be with you.
