Sex For Votes

I was an 18 year old college student at a state university, in the Midwest of the US during the 2008 election. I was political back then, before I realized there is no difference between a Republican and a Democrat, and none of them do anything good for us. I had been very into the idea of being a dem, since I was about 14. Everyone in my immediate family were outspoken union advocates and democrats, so all I knew, or thought i knew, was they were the good guys. I also, was an 3 sport varsity athlete in high school (cross country, swimming, and track), and continued for a couple years in college cross country, so I was in good shape and I got a lot of attention from men.

When I got to college that year, I was all in on helping Obama become president in any way I could. I became a volunteer for his campaign, and made hundreds of phone calls and knocked on doors left and right. Early that fall, a handful of the female volunteers at my school got pulled into a meeting, where we were strongly encouraged to meet guys that are on the fence about who they're voting for, and persuade them in any way they want that voting democrat is the right way to go. A couple of the women quit on the spot. At the time, I was so in that I couldn't understand what the problem was. If this could help us win, we should do it. We were provided with as many condoms as we needed, plan b, and even scripts for antibiotics if need be.

I spent the next two months going out almost every night, handing in barely passable homework assignments, and missing cross country when it conflicted with dates. Luckily, I didn't need any of the antibiotics, but I needed everything else. Who knows if I actually swayed their votes, but I talked these guys ears off for hours about why they should vote dem, and ended the night letting them have me any (yes any) way they wanted. I was never a very sexual girl in high school and haven't really been since beyond occasional sex with boyfriends, so the degradation of this really hurt me in the years to come. I'm not blaming anyone in particular. I was technically an adult, but wow this really hurt my soul once the gravity caught up with me. I have since given up on politics and can't believe anyone out there still has any faith in our broken system.

Anyways, that's my story about how I slept with as many men as I could to sway them to vote the way i wanted them vote duringrhe 2008 election.
