If the party is anything like the ones I’ve witnessed, cheese of any sort is off the menu for a while.:eek:
Crap, I voted wrong. I thought I was saying that I’d attend but opt out of participation, just for the novelty of watching. And even that I’m having second thoughts about, since, if I am reading your post correctly, your definition of sex party seems to be different than mine. If I can be sure that Pat and only Pat will “manually stimulate” me I might be willing to participate, and if I no one else will be stimulating her at the time, I might be willing to reciprocate. But if any and everyone is involved, I’m out.
But you did say it was my type of sex, so that would imply it would be the way I like it. And it might be the only time I’d get to indulge completely into my fetishes (as finding even one person into everything I’m into is really hard).
I’d probably go, contingent on being able to verify that it was legit, and also on who exactly the “friend” I was with was in terms of relationship status
Yikes. “You’re hot, I deign to let you manually stimulate me” changed the whole tone of the thing from a party invitation to treating me like a whore. (Even better, a whore that s/he thought s/he could get for free with just a little flattery and manipulation… cheaper than a cheap whore, and thinks I’m too dumb to notice what s/he’s doing, too. Lovely.)
Uh, no. S/he could fuck right off. I’m not a sex toy.
Absent the “be my whore” language, I still wouldn’t go because I don’t find watching all that hot (yes, I know from experience). Not sexy to me. I don’t want to watch, I want to do. AFAIC, sex has no point if I’m not doing something with someone I care about.
I suppose I could be convinced if I thought I could treat it as an educational demo, and take notes / get ideas I could use for myself. Still not sexy, just clinical and potentially useful. But the scenario as given doesn’t seem to lend itself to that. Hand jobs are not anything I need further instruction on. 
If I don’t get to play I ain’t going.
This, though I might be interested in the chocolate buffet.
My first instinct would be to say ‘yes’ because I like porn, but then porn is normally a private goal-oriented activity where I control the proceedings entirely. So my second instinct also would also be to say ‘yes’ because I like porn, but I expect that my interest would rapidly shift from erotic to anthropological (which is also cool).
You can say middle-aged average people having sex doesn’t interest you erotically… fine, okay, but the entire sociocultural spectacle is completely uninteresting? I don’t believe you.
