tldr: One time of unpaid sex wouldn't change your situation or mindset.
Ascension needs to be taken of its pedestral IMO.
Sure, you'd ascend, reach the dream goal. But what happens then?
You'd still carry around all those scars from the time before. the people who bullied you for being sexless won't be there to change their mind about you and congratulate you. the foids that rejected you wont change their minds after one nut into another vag. you don't get a price for ascending, after the night you'd still be your old self - richer by one experience, but not different.
The only change could come from a long term relationship that lead to a personal change of values and beliefs. Not to praise relationships, but to clarify: the mindset and personal evaluation are the deciding factors in this.
