Lurid fantasy
I would seriously, shamelessly trade sex for guitar lessons. Or Photoshop/Illustrator lessons. Or a few other skills I want to pick up. I realize that friends and lovers kind of naturally teach each other about their passions and such, but I’m talking about a formal arrangement: sex for skill.
It’s a fantasy I go back to occasionally, realizing that it’s a) harmless and b) may be in violation of certain feminist principals. Sex isn’t a commodity (although in reality sometimes it is), and female sexuality isn’t some mysterious thing you have to offer tribute to engage (although I’m a big supporter of sex work, and the simple fact is that there is a demand). In practice, the arrangement would be nothing approaching fair, as I would be enjoying it just as much as anyone I willingly made this type of agreement with. We’re basically talking the most one-sided barter ever, like someone telling me, “I’ll give you this Milky Way if you pet my adorable kitten.”
Um, yeah. Where do I sign?
I find skill arousing. I like the idea of actively living the student role with a sex partner, and the trade part puts it over the top for some reason. I can’t put my finger on it; maybe I want to pretend that sex with me is so totally awesome someone would resort to bribery to procure it. It would be super, extra cool to know a shy music or design geek ended up thinking, “Holy shit. My random skill just came in more useful than I ever hoped to imagine.”
I don’t think this counts as prostitution per se, but if you want to call it that, you honestly just made it even hotter.
Go for it. So long as everyone feels they’re getting a fair deal I don’t think there’s a single thing wrong with exchanging services, which is all that is. Gratification for education…. just think how much better students we’d have been in so many situations if it involved sex too!
This is too weird… I’ve always wanted to do my own wet riffs submission, a hardcore one. Then a couple of weeks ago when I was taking panty pictures I thought about it again. Me thinks you and I share a couple threads lady. <3
That said, learning guitar is pretty easy starting out. You should be able to trade many things for lessons far cheaper than sex (massages, for example.) If sex sounds like a fun trade though, then go for it. Especially if the guitarist is good in bed. Ooh… now I'm thinking about Nick Cave again. *wanders off*
@Marie That would be so awesome if you did a wetriffs submission!
And mmmm Nick Cave. Yes, we really, really do have some common interests.
Hmm. I’ve been learning guitar, and know enough to teach the basics. Plus I know Photoshop pretty well. And I’m basically easy.
Then again, learning Photoshop can be done with a bunch of free videos online. And there are some decent online guitar lessons out there (though for me, the lessons are more an excuse to keep me practicing).

Now I’m disappointed that I don’t have those skills to teach. :(
