For hundreds of millions of years, Sex was the most efficient method for propagating information of dubious provenance: the origins of all those snippets of junk DNA are lost in the sands of reproductive history. Move aside, Sex: the world-wide Web has usurped your role.

While make up sex is a thing, it's not the best way to go about having a relationship, getting in fights because the sex afterwards is amazing.

JOHN MCELHENNEY

"As Goes the Sex So Goes the Marriage", The Good Men Project, August 26, 2017


Sex is not always a choice
lovingly made and enjoyed like
plump well-handled self-chosen fruit
teeth sinking into soft flesh in a dribble of pleasure.

Nevertheless
it abounds.
Some because it is the
truth of their being.
Some to deny, negate, sate
deep yearning, wordless, timeless.

There was sex, of course.
Nakedness.
Wall to wall, in and out of my thoughts.
But when it was over it was her whispering voice I craved, and a human curled up in my arms.

MARKUS ZUSAK

In a way, comedy is like sex. The more noise you hear, the better you think you're doing.

Baby, in a world without pity,
Do you think what I'm askin's too much?
I just want to feel you in my arms,
Share a little of that Human Touch.

BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN

"Human Touch"

Tags: Bruce Springsteen


Sex is difficult; yes. But those tasks that have been entrusted to us are difficult; almost everything serious is difficult; and everything is serious. If you just recognize this and manage, out of yourself, out of your own talent and nature, out of your own experience and childhood and strength, to achieve a wholly individual relation to sex (one that is not influenced by convention and custom), then you will no longer have to be afraid of losing yourself and becoming unworthy of your dearest possession.

Last time I had sex I was so good I got a standing ovation. Well, actually, I just got the clap.

Love is what makes sex more than masturbation. If there is no love even if you are really with a partner you masturbate with a partner.

Copulation is spiritual in essence--or it is merely friendly exercise. On second thought, strike out "merely." Copulation is not "merely"--even when it is just a happy pastime for two strangers. But copulation at its spiritual best is so much more than physical coupling that it is different in kind as well as in degree.

Sex is really only touch, the closest of all touch. And it's touch we're afraid of.

D. H. LAWRENCE

Lady Chatterley's Lover

Tags: D. H. Lawrence


Sex is the ... tremulous and bewildering and nerve-racking and delicious and myriad-adjectived soul-condition ... generally known as love. Ninety-nine point nine repeater percent of the world's literature has been devoted to its analysis. It's therefore of some importance.
