It's a biological process which both causes pleasure for humans and often results in reproduction, and the main purpose of it is reproduction.
If we affirm one moment, we thus affirm not only ourselves but all existence. For nothing is self-sufficient, neither in us ourselves nor in things; and if our soul has trembled with happiness and sounded like a harp string just once, all eternity was needed to produce this one event—and in this single moment of affirmation all eternity was called good, redeemed, justified, and affirmed.
- Friedrich Nietzsche -

The Flood finds women sexually attractive, and can feel physical and mental arousal from them, but doesn't actually want to have sex. Sexual things do not have to involve sex. In fact, I would argue that sexual acts that don't involve actual sex have greater potential for gratification than sex does. Of course, that is just my biased view on the subject.


I don't really get this. Is it about preferring sex other than sexual intercourse, or getting aroused from denying it from yourself?

No, sexuality does not have to involve sex at all. Looking at sexual images is an expression of sexuality. Passionately kissing is an expression of sexuality. Roleplaying is an expression of sexuality. Talking dirty is an expression of sexuality. Whipping someone is an expression of sexuality. Any act that delivers pleasure, regardless how kinky or vanilla or is, can be an expression of sexuality.

Wouldn't have it been more efficient to have sex with a French person?

In general, I view sex as an enjoyable activity to do for fun.
In context of relationships, I view sex as something to abstain from with people outside of the relationship, as a method of demonstrating a willingness to make sacrifices for the relationship. This doesn't mean that it is the only sacrifice that could be made, but it is one that is more important to me than most other potential sacrifices. This would suggest that I do attach some emotional aspect to sex, as I would consider it a betrayal if someone I was in a relationship with had sex with someone who wasn't me, for reasons I outlined.

For the record, being asexual means that you don't have a desire for sex. But if, somehow, you engaged into it completely, you will experience orgasm(s).

No, it is possible that they will experience orgasm. No one certainly will experience orgasms during sex, regardless of their orientation.

Methinks you've severely misunderstood the OP. The OP is referring to the act of sexual intercourse. Not chromosomes or genitalia. Also, there's no such thing as "biological gender". Gender is social, sex is biological.

Also, Harkback, drop the fucking threadjack, why don'tcha?


Riiiight... It was my fault you deralied the topic when you begun arguing about rape's definition.

As a virgin the idea of having sex seems enjoyable but scary at the same time.

The West won the world not by the superiority of its ideas or values or religion … but rather by its superiority in applying organized violence. Westerners often forget this fact; non-Westerners never do.

It's generally kind of a deal for me if I"m sexual with someone, i.e. I usually become pretty attached to people I have sexual desires for. For that reason I don't have casual sex personally, but it's fine if others do (I support sex-positivity and oppose slut-shaming and the repression of consensual and enjoyable behavior).

Some people may succeed, others may fail.

It all depends on the setting, the tools available, and with whom you work with. There is no guaranteed outcome with each engagement.
