Well, maybe the thing most people don't like about sex is that it has to end.
BHAKTI PAUN SHARMA
"People reveal the one thing they don't like about having sex", The HealthSite, September 18, 2017
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"
Every virtuous woman desires a husband to whom she can look for guidance and protection through this world. God has placed this desire in woman's nature. It should be respected by the stronger sex. Any man who takes advantage of this, and humbles a daughter of Eve to rob her of her virtue, and cast her off dishonored and defiled, is her destroyer, and is responsible to God for the deed.
BRIGHAM YOUNG
Journal of Discourses
I think it's a major epidemic in women, faking orgasms. So many women in this world feel like they are put on this planet to please men, that they have to fake, and they never worry about their own pleasure.

Sex isn't everything. It's not even the most important thing. But when sex goes off the rails, there is probably a lot more wrong in the relationship than right.
JOHN MCELHENNEY
"As Goes the Sex So Goes the Marriage", The Good Men Project, August 26, 2017
If you don't encourage healthy sexual expression in public, you get unhealthy sexual expression in private. If you attempt to suppress sex in books, magazines, movies and even everyday conversation, you aren't helping to make sex more private, just more hidden. You're keeping sex in the dark. What we've tried to do is turn on the lights.
HUGH HEFNER
Playboy, January 1974
In a way, comedy is like sex. The more noise you hear, the better you think you're doing.
RAY ROMANO
Everything and a Kite
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.

Musical beds is the faculty sport around here.
EDWARD ALBEE
Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?
The sexual passion is essential to the perfection of the race. It repeats and emphasizes the divine command given by God to our first parents: "Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth." Without it the family would be impossible.
LYMAN ABBOTT
A Study in Human Nature
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.
CHRIS ABANI
"Passion Fruit", Kalakuta Republic
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
Getting the Girl
Vacation sex. So much better than home sex. Yeah. Because ... there's no pressure on the guy. Even if he doesn't perform that well, she's still on vacation.
RAY ROMANO
stand-up routine
Alas, alas, that ever love was sin!
I ever followed natural inclination
Under the power of my constellation
And was unable to deny, in truth,
My chamber of Venus to a likely youth.
GEOFFREY CHAUCER
The Canterbury Tales
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.
SETH LLOYD
"Move Aside, Sex", The Edge Annual Question--2010: How Is the Internet Changing the Way You Think?
Sex is not a service to be delivered, it's one part of a much bigger picture. There's a lot that needs to be attended to for lovemaking to stay alive and pleasurable.
ROBYN SALISBURY
"Dear Mrs Salisbury: My wife doesn't want to have sex", Stuff, September 17, 2017
Either sex alone is half itself.
ALFRED TENNYSON
The Princess
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
Sex without love is as hollow and ridiculous as love without sex.
