The discussion centers on the dual purposes of sex: procreation and pleasure. Participants argue that the enjoyment of sex is essential for human connection and societal cohesion, suggesting that the majority of sexual activity is driven by pleasure rather than solely for reproduction. There is no definitive measure of what constitutes "too much" or "too little" sex, as personal circumstances vary widely. The conversation touches on moral implications and societal norms surrounding sexual behavior, emphasizing that individual responsibility is key. Ultimately, the enjoyment derived from sex is seen as a fundamental aspect of human experience that contributes to population sustainability.

How accurate can be horoscopes?

Do you read your horoscopes daily?
How serious do you treat it?
If the horoscopes say today you may have bad luck if you go out,
will you believe it and keep yourself at home?

I don't believe it at all.

Horoscope is like fortunetelling, just bull****s :biggrin: .

For fun or for procreation ?

or both?

Too much and too little sex is no good?
How much is consider "proper" ?
:cry: I could give you my answer. But it will probably be dismissed like any other.

Most youngsters have masterbation, which gives them a certain level of sexual pleasure. So, it is naturally they will feel curious to Explore sex with opposite sex. As long as they know how to avoid pregnancy and STD, do you think it is ok for them to ignore Virginity ?

I think that's up to their parents to decide what they want to teach their own kids about that.

You don't need to know anything.

We choose to make people know for their own safety, but its not important. If nature made it a rule to know "stuff" before having sex, then sex orientation classes would be packed with an endless waiting list because everyone wants to have sex. We don't need to know anything because if we did, they wouldn't have to force sex education in schools. Basically all nature wanted you to know was thet it's great and pleasureable.

I totally understand why people say "you need to know" or "you need to feel", but that's wrong.

To the question "why do we need sex?"

...who said we need it?

We only need it once we've had it. It's a lot easier to not need it when you don't know what you're missing.

Or it's been so long that you can't remember what you are missing. :frown:

Even rape is acceptable under certain circumstances.. Like if the continuation of the human race depends on it but she still won't put out :rolleyes:
Or if you just blew $150 bucks on dinner and she's been flirting all night, but changes her mind when you try undoing her bra.

I really hate it when people say "You have no Idea... blah blah blah"

I disagree. Drugs are easy. No effort involved.
You have no idea how hard I've worked, the countless hours of study, to become as good in bed as I am.

Ok.. so it's an expensive drug that takes ages to peak.

Once again, i have no idea if i should take that a compliment or an insult. Since its probably an insult, i'll consider it a cmopliment, making it easier to reply...

Things are more fun that way.

Is that in Arizona dollars? And to think I was going to settle for the blanket fort in the kitchen. I'll have to raise my prices. :smile:
