I've waited tables and made very good money on tips, Paul. I've also worked 4 jobs, 2 of which full-time, while also getting an honors Masters degree. And am very much capable to take care of myself and mine. I'm also a certified barista and have spent my entire life working to make sure there is never a situation when I'm broke enough to have to cross any boundaries I don't want to cross. But in a hypothetical situation of no other choice and no other way - sure. Do you think anyone would let their child starve to death while worrying about dignity?

I don't think "want" was part of this discussion at all. I thought we were discussing sex as a bargain.
If you were faced with a choice between the life of your child and the life of someone else, what would be yours? Maybe this question will clarify my statement.
In any case, I think you are not trying to see the point I'm making but rather want to confront whatever I say, so I might as well thank you for the discussion and propose to conclude it.
