I think that's a bit rude.
I don't approve of crosswords with answers like that.
So there!

Many thanks - I was thinking of a much steamier definition.

the definition they're referring to is 'to practice extortion' = I think you are letting the vulgar connotations of 'screwed' colour your reactions! To be screwed is to be 'had' as baitress says - nothing to do with the modern meaning. (Like other words it has been hijacked!)
