Nothing but Mammals

Anyone between the age of 16 and 30 reading this may want to take a seat before I go any further. What I am about to say will startle and downright scare some of you. We as humans have grossly exaggerated the importance and necessity to have and partake in sexual intercourse. Sex, be it through the front door, back door or the upstairs entrance these days drives us it seems. Everywhere we turn we are bombarded by sexually related content. Many relationships are bases on the availability and quality of sexual encounters. The thirst for this special attention is not specific to one gender but we as males are, due to societal pressures, the more sexually driven beings. Females however, have a tendency of letting sex lead them to believe more emotions are involved that may be present.

Sex is in its most basic of forms is the basis for the continuation of the human species. A side effect however of sex is an extremely high sense of satisfaction when done right. It can be compared to a drug and some individuals are addicted. Much like drugs it can give you a good high or can be some cheap backyard stuff and offend more than enhance and satisfy. This side effect of excitement and fulfillment has led to sex being turned into merely a process of inserting penis into vagina to reach a climax. For some this climax may take a while to be achieved whilst for others Usain Bolt might be left wondering if such speed is legal. Depending on timing and parties involved the experience can provide that euphoric feeling that is sought. The more euphoric the feeling the more repeat performances are sought.

I say sex is not that big a deal because both parties may be present but both parties do not have to be overly involved or share the benefits. In fact many stories have been told and retold of varying accounts where one party was ecstatic and the other was busy counting tiles waiting for it to end. Take for example if a male and a lady share a bed and he has an exciting dream and his parts arise. She can maneuver and fulfill herself without him waking up depending on how heavily he sleeps, or with more pleasure than if he was actively participating. The fact that many of us have mastered the art of having relations with anyone we can picture. Some lubricant and or the use of toys (batteries may or may not be needed) and these encounters may sometimes be more fulfilling that having the actual parties there.

What I’m trying to say is with sex being something that can so easily be substituted why does it seem to be that one conversation piece that always comes up? A trip through the historical garrison area and the turnover ratio of vehicles making pickups show the almost excessive desire some of us have. Please note I’m separating sex from making love because there is a big difference in the two which I would go into in a future note but as it stands most liaisons are of the sexual nature and not the love making kind. The name of love making is used to mask the fact that we are nothing but mammals seeking the side effects as opposed to the procreation purpose of sex.

I can hear some of you saying that I must be insane because sex is nice and it is required and we as humans can’t live without it. We can’t live without air or we can’t live without water or food. Sex is not needed if not the removal of it from our lives would mean certain death. Right now some of you reading this would have forgotten the feeling of sex and some of us never experienced it but as we all sit here reading this piece we are all alive aren’t we? Unless zombies are reading this article I dare say sex is not required
