Lust trumps love when it comes to having sex

I can say it in various ways but they all boil down to:

1. Because it is fun.

and very occasionally

2. Because I think I'll get something out of it.

Why? It's beyond my control.

(YOU being all of you.)

I wouldn't know...it has been a while...

Can't you boil nearly every action anyone ever takes down to that?

Reason #238 - because I couldn't sleep.

No. With other actions I would also add:

3. Because it is fun for someone else (I've done many things simply because Lani wanted to but I don't think I've ever had sex when I wasn't expecting to enjoy it or get something out of it).

4. Because it is simply the right thing to do, even if it conflicts with my personal self interest.

And, much more frequently in the non-sex realm of activities, the previously mentioned "I was forced/manipulated into doing it."

And my top would include some that Alex mentioned, and others..

3. Because it is fun for someone else, or what the other person wanted.

4. Because it is the right thing to do at the time.

3. Because it's the only way to achieve peace in a situation.

someone better get some small bills together for the group going out to poll the strippers.

But those could all be boiled down to be viewed as forms of #2. Hell, even #1 is a subset of #2.

It's my way of saying "thank you" for the free cocktail that the stranger across the bar sent my way.




(I'm totally kidding. )


For reals, It's my way of saying "I love you with all of my heart" to the one that I love. Also, it's the best way to get one's horny rocks off.

No, I don't agree, unless I am missing something.
