It feels good?
For me, it would be the being intimate with someone, it must be nice.

Why do you need to ask this question?? It's a lot of fun and a dam good way to connect with someone you fancy the pants off..
As long as the condom does not break, it is a cheaper form of recreation than going to the cinema.

I know it feel good, but that not really reason enough.

Why is it given so such importance?

I thought there are lots of ways to be intimate with someone, cuddling for one...I really like a good cuddle over sex sometimes.

Because I was questioning what is sex, it's not a form of love, it's pleasure.

Why is it shoved in our faces at any given moment?

Love and passion


Really? how so?
It's pleasurable. I like sex. That's nothing to be ashamed of.

Are you asking me to explain love?


No, I asking you to explain how love is connected to sex.
I'm pretty sure I read somewhere that sex is necessary for our mental and physical well-being :tongue:

Something biological. I can't see how love itself can be anything other than evolutionary



Sex outside the purpose of making children, is biological and evolutionary?

AND

How are you defining love?

Well maybe not physical as such but probably mental wellbeing.

Children don't apply because they've not hit puberty and developed those hormones so I'm basically talking about adults and teens.

And with asexual people, I simply have no idea :redface:
