What is it we like most about sex?

What do you enjoy most about sex- give one reason

I'm trying to work out what it is exactly we like about sex. This may seem like an obvious answered questions, but I reckon it's different between people.
Could there be a difference between girls and boys?
Has it to do with the length of the relationship with the other person?

Please give your views.

In the poll if your reason is not stated (I can't think of any more- exactly why I'm asking!), do state in a post.

The smell of the condoms.


Having always used a condom, I now find myself conditioned to jump to attention when anything smelling remotely condomy whafts under my nose.

It's all about the orgasm.
Personally, I like the struggling at the start.

Cuddling someone afterwards. It's not about the cuddling, it's about cuddling someone I've just had sex with. It's partly the pride of the feelings she's had throughout, it's partly the contentment I feel, both emotionally and physically, and it's partly the intimacy of being able to do that and to hold them afterwards, knowing we love each other. Sex when the other person disappears after just wouldn't feel right, it'd be empty. But then, it's probably just because my ex had a large impact on me :redface:
oh and as for sex?

i put the way it feels emotionally for me..it feels nice physically too....but i get more enjoyment from manual and oral stimulation so id say in general my favourite part of sex is feeling connected inimately with my bf ...i came to this conclusion because i doubt id enjoy the same sensations if i was with someone i barely knew ....and the pillow talk at the end..LOVE the pillow talk

Being honest? The prospect of actually having it.

nah, it's not all about the orgasm, it's about the sweatiness and pleasure and fun and general sexiness throughout. i've had amazing sex which hasn't resulted in orgasm, it just makes you feel alive and attractive and is amazingly pleasurable :smile:

...not to say i don't thoroughly enjoy my orgasms :smile:. yes. yes i do.
