== Straight Examples ==

* In the [[Vorkosigan Saga]], Miles spends a year on Beta Colony at age 15. He has hopes for unlimited possibilities for sex, but finds that half of those interested (not many) are good Samaritans, and found that he "did not care to be an object of charity".

* In ''[[Ciem Webcomic Series|Ciem: Vigilante Centipede]]'', Candi finally sleeps with Jack to shut him up so he'll stop annoying her. She sees him as a lovable loser; and takes pity on him for being so obsessed with her when he had more appropriate choices of women all around him the entire time. When it's revealed that Donte is still alive, he astonishes her by revealing that [[Chivalrous Pervert|he will not knowingly steal her from Donte]]. Which shames her into allowing him to have more sex with her, at least until she can reclaim Donte. Ends with Candi finally respecting Jack, Candi finally back together with a confused-but-grateful Donte, and Jack finally able to give someone else a chance.

 

* In ''[[Community]]'', Professor Slater first agreed to sleep with Jeff because he made himself seem pathetic, begging and pleading enough until she finally said yes. {{spoiler|Subverted in that it never happened in that episode, and instead they first slept together after dating conventionally.}}

* Subverted in ''[[All My Children]].'' This was Krystal's excuse for sleeping with Tad- emphasis on excuse, since she did have feelings for him.

* In ''[[Devdas]]'' after learning that he cannot be with Paro anymore, the titular character's friend introduces him to a [[High-Class Call Girl]] named Chandramukhi, in an attempt to cheer him up.

 

* The pity sex by proxy happens in ''[[Boston Public]]''; a romantically starved character discovers that his hot new girlfriend who actually seems to get him is in fact a prostitute hired by his wealthy brother. He didn't react well. (The 'girlfriend' was under the impression that the man already knew that he was getting "the girlfriend experience" and broke character at the wrong time.)

* The other cops hire a hooker for Renko's birthday in ''[[Hill Street Blues]]'', and he was ''pissed'' when he caught on.
