I’m afraid I don’t see the relevance of this… Sorry if I missed a joke or something.
If there’s any doubt, my question was genuine, not rhetorical. I could speculate on what it might mean to be owed sex but instead I’d like to hear from others. Since people defend the freedom to express the opinion that sex is owed sometimes, I thought someone here felt that this is a meaningful opinion?
“I am owed more sex” might express an attitude of entitlement, resentment, etc., not a proposition that the speaker would draw long chains of inference from, or be able to explain how to cash out. I think this is something like wedrifid’s point.
People aren’t obliged to speak sense, either!

Oh! Of course, that looks the correct reading. I’ve been silly for not understanding :-/
I disagree for most values of “obliged”.
And for certain values of “sense”.
