Is there really a point to sex for humans?

Question

While reading this question I'm sure everyone here is going to say well duh, that’s how we make babies! Anyway this was typically not what I was asking, first lets go over some "facts". The fast majority of sex today, is not directly FOR reproduction, its for pleasure, which still with the use of contraceptives many women still freak out if there late for their monthly period. The STDs/STIs of today are getting worse as well, many of them are starting to become epidemic (perhaps because many of them can and are asymptomatic).

I understand sex "can" feel good, but in my option, since according to people your life is ruined once you get an incurable STD, or pregnant at an early age, does not seem to be worth it.

My question is your take on everything I said, personally I think you can pretty much guess the way I feel...

sex < the consequences of sex, basically the way I see sex, is it just puts yourself at a risk for something you could have easily avoided.

I'm sure many of the women, no wait sorry girls that were under 12 that got pregnant would tend to agree, not all but many.

And just FYI, its possible to get pregnant whenever you have sex, except for a few permanent solutions such as hysterectomy. There are many known cases of women that have gotten pregnant using both condoms and birth control pills/patches. Whoever said there wasn’t was either lying or stupid.

again FYI, for the people that don't know, condoms aren't 100%, people get diseases like HIV/HPV/ECT using them, they just reduce the risk.

Answer 1

Really, sex is overrated, I speak as in marriage, it shouldn't even be happening otherwise, but for the fact that it is, for a man, he inserts it and thinks that it is going to be so wonderful, because it is so, the let's get laid thing, when he discovers that there are areas that he must be careful of not hurting her or that seem to not let him go the way he thinks will be a good feeling. As for her, she is supposing that he is having the best time of his life when there are definitely challenges involved but she takes advantage of the moment and wants to feel this thing so great and finds that she isn't really getting the pleasure she expected then she pretends she is getting enough and says she has had an orgasm which he has laid back being done but she hasn't really gotten anything out of it. Those are facts of penetration. That is not all that sex is though, sex is, "making love", this involves the whole body and doing much more than just penetration. I'm sure that's why God made the female so wonderfully sensuous, we have the opportunity of really making a woman feel like she is beautiful.

Life is a risk. Bottom line. We all do things to seek pleasure or a high if you will and there does seem to be consequences attached to that at times. I used to skydive quite a bit in the Army. I risked dying if my parachute didn't open but the thrill was worth it. Sex has it's risks but man is it fun!

Answer 3

Dude, std's are like little trophies. you get them from people when you score! The more you have, the more you've won! Just kidding. Babies are bad, Std's are fine if you don't spread 'em (unless you're mean spirited and want to spread them) But dude, seriously, getting laid is the ****!

Answer 4

the STD factor is just the backfired negative effect of sex it's natural
