Poll Have You Ever Had Survival Sex?

[barbaranan]

About three years ago, I had sex for rent money. I guess that it could be considered survival sex. I had trouble paying the rent after my room mate moved out. I asked a family friend for a loan, but I wound out having sex with him instead. I don't feel good or bad about it. I look at it like this, at least I didn't cheat or steal from anyone. Good thing that I wasn't in a committed relationship at the time.
I did what I needed to do at the time and moved on from there.
Would I ever do it again? I dunno? What do you think?

Yepper. Several decades ago, especially when I was homeless, I did things I never dreamed I'd do in order to survive.

I think having been sexually molested as a child and left with no choice in the matter made part of my brain think it was somehow okay to meet my most basic needs in that manner, perhaps?

Many can easily claim they'd never do something based on morals alone, but once presented with life/death situations, those ideas can quickly be changed.

Survival situations tend to create hellish conditions you may not have ever thought you'd have to face.

My condition wasn't all that hellish, but it could have easily gotten out of control. I was already a couple of months behind on the rent. One regret I have is that I allowed him to photograph me, not my face, just my body.
