Poll: Is food better than sex?

[NickCaligo42]

Snip again

So the second one. Gotcha'.

Well provided I wasn't starving. I'd take a 69 over a 99 with a flake in it any day.

There's a sort of annual tradition in Australia where a couple of comedians get together and debate a particular topic in front of a live audience. I don't know if there's anything comparable in other countries, but it's great fun down here and they're about halfway through this year's, the topic being whether or not food is better than sex. I can't watch it all right now, as Sanctuary is about to start on another channel and damned if I'm going to miss that, so I'll finish watching the debate later on the recorder

Anyways, I thought I might ask the Escapist's opinion on the matter: what really is better? Food or sex?

Too minor notes:
1) Search bar approved
2) Let's try and keep it, err, relatively clean. I do hope the topic itself won't get me a probation. My logic is that if it's good enough for Monday night Aussie telly, it's probably good enough for the internet.

I watched it, and although it was obvious which side would win *cough* rigged *cough* I sided with Paul's side "The affirmative".

food is the only way I can put something in my mouth without looking homosexual.

As I've not had sex (not complaining), I can't really comment, but I know how much I enjoy my food, so...

I will leave this rather interesting quote with you though, which was delivered unto me by one of my Dad's biker friends.

"A good shit is better than bad sex."

I'll never forget that...

You could always combine the two. Sex with food

 

[jonnosferatu]

Depends on how long I've gone without one. Right now, food wins because I'm getting laid frequently by an extremely horny, attractive, and talented girl.

Also depends partially on how my lifting's been going. If I'm getting PRs right and left, I'm more likely to take eating just because I'll be significantly more psyched about gaining the weight.

Hey, i missed this and heard it was pretty funny - does anybody know where i could watch it?? have tried looking on channel 10's website but couldn't find it.

Thanks!

 

[scoHish]

Well food definitely tastes better...

 

[SuperSuperSuperGuy]

Well, I've never had sex before, so I can't tell you from personal experience. My opinion is pretty fact based, though not entirely: Food is necessary for an individual to live. Sex is not. However, sex is necessary to a species' survival. But I don't care how long humans live for, because I don't particularily like other people. In fact, I don't ever plan on having any children, ever. Both food and sex are things that we instinctively crave, and that lack of either can cause stress. However, lack of food can cause pain and weakness, and the only way to satisfy this need is to eat food. The mental discomfort caused by a lack of sex can be satified by... alternative means.

I conclude that: Food>Sex.

Well...you can combine food and sex. Whipped cream anyone? Banana split?

Whipped cream is a bad idea. You end up with this awful old dairy smell clinging to you.

As for the question, it depends. Sandwiches have lasted longer than some guys I've been with.

Sandwich comment

Yes, whipped cream is something I've never wanted to try. This is why flavoured lubes exist.

What exactly goes through a girl's mind when a guy ejaculates in his underwear? I only ask because my ex told me about her friend's boyfriend doing it while kissing. Any girls care to shed some light? I know one guy who did it, put his hand in it and rubbed it in her face before getting up and leaving, which seems a bit of an overreaction...

Well my first reaction is, "Well I at least I didn't waste the time getting my pants off for 10 seconds of disappointment" If it's a guy I actually care about, I'd be pretty understanding. It's usually because he's nervous or not very experienced- neither of which can he be faulted. If it's just some guy, I wouldn't really care. It ends there and I go home.
Girls can masturbate too.

As to that guy you know, I would have knocked a tooth out. I'm a scrappy little girl and I would never take that kind of BS from a guy.

Understandable reactions, and nice to hear you'd be sympathetic to a guy you cared for. I've heard they do condoms to numb a guy so he can last longer now. I'm in no doubt that girls can masturbate, it's just apart from two ex's and one very outspoken female friend, they never admit it I get kicks out of teasing close girl friends about it, but I usually get a torrent of abuse in return

To be fair, as a guy, I would have if I'd known the girl, it was a friend of my brother's though so... I know enough about scrappy girls, trust me, one of them has an obsession with teasing me with knee-to-groin action, and on one night out, she was swinging her heels because she couldn't walk in them, I walked up behind her and got high heels to the nuts. Pain.

food will always exist as a bountiful, delectable resource that gives and gives, and asks nothing in return!

Except your waistline, but exercise will give it back.

Hmm, this is true. Gained pounds are notoriously hard to lose.

Ah well life is short.

 

[Treeinthewoods]

Can a person go more than three weeks without sex and not die? No, seriously, I'm not sure because I would never go three weeks without sex. HA!

If I'm really hungry sex can wait, if I'm super horny food can wait. The answer to this question is C, both are incredible.

A note to all virgins - you can't contribute anything to the debate if you haven't tried both. It's like saying chocolate is better than marshmallow but you never had a marshmallow in your life. You don't know!

 

[DarkHourPrince]

Nah, sex is easily better. I go by the saying eat to live not live to eat

I like this saying. A lot.
I personally dislike eating and being a scorpio there's just no alternative better then some late night lovin'.

 

[similar.squirrel]

I hasn't had sex [sadface], but going by the vigour with which people seem to pursue it, I'd say it has an edge over food.
Besides, it burns calories, and somehow that demonstrates its supremacy over the coital act.
