SEX!!!

[veryboringfact]

Do i think sex is important in a reltionship ? Yes.
Do i think sex is important on videogaming websites ? No.

If you don't wan to talk about this stuff it's fine by me, but I would like to point to your attention that the Escapist is not just a gaming website, and this thread was posted in the Off-topic section.

So why don't you just run along back to the gaming section, and we'll all be happy.

Ok let me be clearer, i don't think this question is relevant ANYWHERE on the internet. The internet is void of sex by it's nature, and this thread is full of people talking about sex who have either admitted to never having sex or imply it through their wording.

And did i not respond to the original question in my post ? I said i think sex is important in a relationship, so i won't be running back anywhere.

There's nothing wrong with sex ?
Casual sex with a lot of people gets a rep but going with someone and having sex is fine.
About the "unpure/dirty" thing, sex is natural =/ how the hells that dirty or unpure ?

Well, technically mud is dirty, but is also natural. Sex can get QUITE dirty, even if with natural things. Just think on that.

Touche, but I think I meant more along the lines of dirty as in sinned. And that is an intresting/disturbing thought of dirty sex depending on views of it.

Sex has its role in a relationship but I feel love is far more important than sex. sex for me is a way to express love hence it only being a component that makes up love along with other things such as trust and commitment. At the end of the day its down to individuals and what they want from the relationship or sexual experience the whole sex is part of love thing is just the thing that feels right for me as a person, but its all really down to what works for each individual, e:G I'd feel uncomfortable just having casual sex but I don't look down on anyone who's ok with it, its just what works for them.

Sex isn't even slighty important in a relationship...

Oh get real. Sex is almost everything in a relationship. In fact, the reason we feel attraction is to mate.

What? Would my life be ruined by my not having sex? If I wind up in the position to have sex with someone I love and is worthy of my body, I'm not going to pass up the opportunity on grounds that sex is disgusting.
The thing is, sex is a dangerous thing, and I'm not going to go looking for it because some people think that its the best thing ever. At this point, I don't have hormones telling me to have a sexual relationship with someone, and if I were to find someone who was suitable for me to marry, I wouldn't have sex with them unless we were both sexually into each other. Even then, I would wait if at all possible. I am young.

To me, sex is a powerful thing, which can be good or bad. I'm not going to go be a whore because sex is supposedly enjoyable. I mean, call me old-fashioned, but what could happen if I were to not have sexual relationships, and instead had friendships and platonic intamacy?

You see, that post just might have had an ounce of credibility if you had actually tried sex at least once.

What you seem to be doing is selecting all the bits of second hand info about sex that you like the most and use them to further your arguments.

So, I should have sex to prove a point on the internet?
You are clearly a role model.

I believe that sex is necessary in a real romantic relationship, as it is the closest, most bonding and connecting thing between two human beings. Everyone goes on about love, but sex is a way to pass on that affection. Of course, I may be wrong. I'm a virgin.

Not really. Nothing about what Erana said (in the section you quoted) relies on her experience on sex. You're just trying to invalidate her(?) opinion with what amounts to a personal attack. People who use ad hominem fallacies leave a bad taste in my mouth. Consider that having had sex doesn't make you an expert.

Sex is enjoyable between two patient, competent - and comfortable - lovers. To wait for someone who she feels is worthy, it's not such a foolish thing.

Well, I really don't understand why people care about it so much, or even want to have it, for that matter. It is disgusting, in actuality. I mean, all the bodily fluids, disease, and proximity to the anus 'n what not...
I'm stayin' a virgin until I find a lifelong mate who can make that sound appealing. (among other qualities of course.)

Let's see:
It feels great/second only to hard drugs
It is intimate.
Surely if you loved someone you'd want to be intimate?
No offence, but saying it's disgusting is more telling of your age than any actual truth of the matter.

No, you cannot deny that sex is disgusting. The only thing is, you have hormones that tell you to ignore that fact and enjoy it anyway. I don't take kindly to ageism, and considering your reasons for why sex is good, I stand by the idea that maturity is more important than age.

Wait, what? I can deny sex is disgusting. It's a perfectly normal thing. You just haven't experienced it, so you can't judge.

Explain my sexual attraction to men as I am too male then, please.

Sex doesn't belong on the internet? Tell that to all those porn websites...

When that point is regarding sex, then yes.

If I have never eaten ice cream, but I have been informed by some friends that it tastes like shit, my arguments against it aren't going to be that good because all I'm ever going to be able to do is spout some second hand recycled impersonal bullshit.

No one was suggesting that. They were merely pointing out that your opinions are formed through various elements that seem disgusting to you, and without experience of the thing as a whole, which you so vehemently denounce. Waiting for the right time is a good thing, but many people just like the experience and go out to get it. I don't necessarily agree with that but it's their choice. I do feel that sex is an important aspect of a relationship as it is a natural thing, and a relationship without sexual attraction is difficult to maintain, as after all, we are animals, and procreation is an instinct.

Edit: Ok so he did suggest that, but that's not the point.

I don't know anyone on here that looks down on sex...

Me neither
