Elements of love making are: [1] free, [2] total, [3] faithful, and [4] open to children. These are the commitments that spouses must renew when they have sex. “Free”. Any way that a husband or wife might manipulate of coerce a spouse to have sexual relations would be a violation of the freedom in their union. A clear example would be ’marital rape.’ Yet we’re not talking only about such an extreme situation. The true freedom of love is also violated when spouses use sex as a tool in their relationship for some other end. Perhaps sex is employed to gain power or control in the relationship. Perhaps it’s offered as a “reward” for something else or withheld as a “punishment”. None of this kind of behavior says, “I want to give myself to you freely to affirm your goodness and our commitment.”
“Total” The climax of the sexual act shouts loudly and clearly, “Take me. I’m totally yours. I’m holding nothing back.” That ecstatic moment reflects the unreserved surrender of our persons and the unreserved receptivity of the unreserved surrender of our persons and the unreserved receptivity of the other. To the degree that we knowingly and intentionally reserve any part of ourselves from our spouse in the sexual act, we cannot speak of a total self-giving.
Perhaps one spouse is emotionally distant from or cold toward the other. Perhaps both spouses are deliberately refusing to be transparent and vulnerable with each other. Perhaps they’re not giving themselves to each other in climax at all. Such is the case when one or the other spouse intentionally seeks orgasm apart from the act of normal intercourse. The acts by which spouses loving prepare each other for genital intercourse (foreplay) are honorable and good. But stimulation of each other’s genitals to the point of climax apart from an act of normal intercourse is nothing other than mutual masturbation. There’s no gift of self, no love making taking place at all. Nor are such acts open to conception.
Lastly, open to childreen. What greater love can be made that trusts each person to have enough faith to believe the two of you can be responsable together to take care of a new life. When you take this piece out (with contraception) ... you're saying, "I trust you ... just not with kids ... or the future"
(I'm assuming you understand "Faithful" ... I hope you all do)

Love was created in us by God. We can't "make love". We can only demonstrate it inone way or another. People usually say this to refer to romantic sexual activity.

There are three methods of penetration---making love (romantic, etc) having sex/gettin it on, and then a rough, lustful, animalistic version....

Sex, but I think it sounds lame to say it like that...as if you are manufacturing a product...I prefer the phrase "gettin it on".
