And they spent their own money to fund the research. Imagine explaining this research when interviewing for the next research project. I'm thinking the resume would fall on the "duh" pile.
Well, only people without a relationship with Jesus Christ have sex for pleasure. Remember, to get into heaven, you have to hate it and only do it because you have to procreate.
I'm sorry ... But... isn't that REALLY narrow of you to say? I know you're being sarcastic, but. I know a lot of people who accept Jesus as their god (no different than any god of yours, just their chosen dedicated god) -
I find that extremely narrow minded. I hate to be a bitch. I'm as pagan as the next girl, and I have been thinking a lot about my own tendency towards religious prejudice.
There are tons of Christians that enjoy sex for its pleasure just as much as you or I. Now, are there some extremists? Yes... but aren't there creepy pagans too?
:X
Course - when I started writing this I thought faerievixen had replied to the comment.
And the article is ridiculous. People have sex because they LIKE it. (feels good) and it feels good as a biological design to make creatures want to do it effectively to procreate.
:)
In all seriousness, back to your regularly scheduled sarcasm.
Blasphemy, people have sex because the great spaghetti monster wants us to. Truth be told, the gods are voyeurs one and all and good people work to make the gods happy. ;-)
I was curious as to how many people actually selected the 'to give someone and STD' option. Thats the WTF? question I think.
I have sex to get temporarily rid of distracting biological imperatives. Same reason I eat when I am hungry. I also have sex in order to fulfill obligation to serve and please another person whom I care about and feel satisfied for the accomplishment of successful service.
If I could take my own pleasure out of sexuality I would gladly do so in order to better focus on bringing pleasure to a partner. However, most partners feel similarly in their desire to please, which would make such an option less pleasurable for them. Something of a dilemma, since my emotional reaction to sensation (pain or pleasure) is reduced due to a neuro-developmental abnormality. As a result, I have not learn to not fake it exactly (since I do feel the sensation) but to emulate the emotional reaction. Unfortunately, I get less practice in doing so as I would like, and some partners find it off-putting that I ask them to teach me how I can communicate pleasure to them.
