Poll: Sexual favors for Star Wars memorabilia

[The Rogue Wolf]

I don't think I'd want to have sex with someone who would have sex with someone for a collectible.

 

[Rednog]

It depends, I guess for me personally it would be a "yes", but I only say that because my parents threw out all my childhood stuff when I was in college.
I was kind of depressed about it since they didn't keep my 1 cherished transformer

Spoiler

Though if I had that I probably would not trade that 1 toy for sex, anything else I had, sure why not, I wasn't super attached to anything else.
If someone gets more enjoyment out of my old stuff, why not.

i don't really much childhood toys (snes). or collectibles (cheap sacred 2 figure) (sack boy)...take want you want

 

[Vegosiux]

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

This, in a nutshell. One hell of a story my posterior.

 

[Phasmal]

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.

It doesn't matter if you didn't pay for them or if they mean a super-duper lot to you. At the end of the day its still sex-trade, trading material goods for sex. So yeah, the prostitution angle is totally valid.
Also, if one of my friends thought that I would have sex with him in exchange for stuff, I doubt we would be friends any more. When I had stopped laughing. I'm not into hookering myself.

 

[Blunderboy]

There is something very, very wrong with people.

 

[mental_looney]

Pretty sure that's just the same as paying for it with cash so no not really.

 

[RobDaBank]

Flog the items on eBay, buy a nice outfit, get a hair cut, some nice aftershave and go out to a club and meet a girl and either smash her back doors in and leave it at that or try to romance her and persue a relationship...


...but that's just me

captcha: Be Mine... And there's your chat up line

 

[Gigano]

No way I'm handing over my UCS Star Destroyers for something that's available for free.

 

[repeating integers]

If a shit about your figures you don't give, let your lightsabre run wild, you must.

This deserves at least half an internet.

 

[isometry]

You have to read the situation correctly. If there was already the feeling that sex was a possibility, then playing your cards right and giving her gift could work out. But stating "sex for toys" as a formal trade is never going to work unless the girls are already prostitutes.

Although non-professionals sometimes trade sex for favors, it's generally a lot more indirect and open-ended than the scenario you propose. In this situation, the girls most likely know that they could take advantage of you, so putting a formal offer on the table won't help anything.

What would help, of course, is alcohol. Try having some nice stuff on hand to entice them to drink (e.g. $30 bottles, you said you've got the money). I'm not saying this because I drink or like alcohol at all, but if you are mildly desperate to get laid and will be having these girls over at your place, alcohol is by far the best thing to improve your chances.

 

[The Funslinger]

Holy shit, lol. don't think I would ever get to the point of having to give up my Grand Admiral Thrawn action figure for sex with another person. And the idea of sleeping with some nerd in exchange for the Christmas Special isn't very attractive, either.

I really expected the scenario to be reversed for some reason, but this is just as amusing.

If I had a copy of the Star Wars holiday special, I'd prostitute myself just to get someone to take it off my hands.

 

[geK0]

Do you really think these women would have given you a BJ for your mint condition Darth Vader doll?

 

[Agayek]

If one of them brought it up and made the offer, I'd probably do it. I'd almost certainly not be the one to broach the topic though.

 

[CruisingForBiddies]

Now I'm not saying I'm walking to a street corner and casually offering my mint-in-box Brin Derlin to a cosplaying Mon Mothma for a handy behind an Aldi's dumpster. I'm just talking about a long shot situation where they're both in my room and I'm showing them all my neat stuff and then one of them says "I'd do anything for one of these..."

And keep in mind, an equivalent sexual encounter with two women who look like this would cost in the low thousands at least. I mean, I have that kind of money, but the amount of time and effort to find reliable actual prostitutes would be dangerous and time consuming. If I really really wanted to do that, I could, but I don't. However, two women, right there, and I'm one Yoda doll away from an amazing story.... I think I might do it.

That would make the greatest porno ever. I think you should be ringing some companies and pitching this idea to them, you could make millions! And you could direct and star in it too! Then you would make money, fuck bitches and keep your Star Wars collectibles. This plan is foolproof.

 

[Smeatza]

No, that would be weird.
Wham, bam, thank you ma'am, and here's a child's toy for your trouble.

Also, sex for toys? you could be shagging grannies and you'd still be accused of paedophilia.

 

[jirenicus]

If they are hot, they brought the subject up and there was already a bit of sexual attraction there both ways, then fuck yeah.

Threesome! But then I really like sexing. It's really fun you guys!

Also I'm not so big on collectables.
