Landlords Ask For Sex Instead Of Rent During Coronavirus

In 2016, Landlord Sex was porn’s fastest rising new genre. With the cost of living and rent increasing, owning property was the millennial dream. Property porn allowed us an escape – to view houses we could never afford … while banging busty real estate agents on the dining room table during the open-home viewing. It was the ultimate millennial fantasy.

And while some fantasies are best left as fantasies, that hasn’t stopped some landlords in the US from using the pandemic as a pick-up line. According to BuzzFeed News, some landlords are requesting sex in lieu of cash from those who can’t afford to pay rent right now.

With significant layoffs, and the fact the total of unemployed Americans sits at 22 million (and counting), only 69 per cent of renters in the US were able to pay their rent in the first week of April.

One woman, who lost her income due to the coronavirus pandemic, said she texted a potential landlord inquiring about a more affordable property, and he responded with a dick pic.

“We’ve received more cases at our office in the last two days than we have in the last two years,” one women’s advocate told BuzzFeed News.

Another recently unemployed woman asked her landlord if she could postpone rent payments until she could return to work. He replied by telling her she come over and spoon him instead.

Desperate measures call for desperate pleasures.


So that’s how the article from Penthouse Australia arrived in our offices, and it may be “fine” and even marginally interesting — albeit not very surprising, truth be told. Still, saying life continues to suck in America and then quoting BuzzFeed seemed to be lacking the expected depth, something rather critical to us. We do try to do more than just phone it in on this side of the world, even if we happen to be working from home.

Then we figured out what we needed. We real-quick brought in a couple of free-web-friendly, season-appropriate, shots of Rachel that went live on PenthouseGold and PenthouseVault a couple of days ago. (Basically, if you like videos, modern galleries, and the erotica in Letters, you want PenthouseGold. If you just want to experience the vintage layouts from the days when photographers used film and print magazines dominated the industry, you can pay less money and join PenthouseVault. With either choice, you will also get the more “revealing” shots of Rachel, of course.

And the moral of the story? When in doubt, go for Earl Miller. We do.
