I think it's very strange that so many people miss what I think is clear irony that makes up basically this whole song. Like most MM songs, this one is a rather scathing commentary on modern American society, where it has become increasingly acceptable to have sex at random, without consideration for the long-term effects on both partners.
The term "use" does not have good connotations in the sexual sense. If it is understood that an encounter is "just about sex", truly understood by both partners, then nobody is being "used". The only way that word enters into things is when one person takes advantage of the other to get something (sex, in this case).
Seriously, how many people do you know that want to be "used like a whore"? Not as a fantasy, but as a reality.

I don't think this is particularly referring to taking advantage of someone in the term "use".
The protagonist of the song, most likely Omega, is asking to be used, and as such, this would most likely mean something more in the way of "Go on and do it, I don't feel it."
