quotations about sex
I think there is a puritanical wind that is blowing. I have never seen such a lack of separation between church and state in America, I don't believe in God, but if I did I would say that sex is a Godgiven right. Otherwise it's the end of our species.
KEVIN BACON
"The Outsider Wants In", The Times, December 1, 2005
Well, maybe the thing most people don't like about sex is that it has to end.
BHAKTI PAUN SHARMA
"People reveal the one thing they don't like about having sex", The HealthSite, September 18, 2017
OK, not everyone's desire is the same. No one can tell you how much sex you should want. A sexless relationship or marriage is not necessarily a bad one, as long as, here's the key, both people are genuinely happy with that. Ultimately, relationships are about fit.

"Why Women Are Losing Interest In Sex After A Year", Forbes, September 16, 2017
Nobody's sex life is such that every experience is a ten. You may have to be satisfied with regular eights or sixes and even an occasional three.

Sheet Music: Uncovering the Secrets of Sexual Intimacy in Marriage
Natural inclinations are present in things from God, who moves all things. So it is impossible for the natural inclinations of a species to be toward evil in itself. But there is in all perfect animals a natural inclination toward carnal union. Therefore it is impossible for carnal union to be evil in itself.
THOMAS AQUINAS
Summa Contra Gentiles
Sex is not a service to be delivered, it's one part of a much bigger picture. There's a lot that needs to be attended to for lovemaking to stay alive and pleasurable.
ROBYN SALISBURY
"Dear Mrs Salisbury: My wife doesn't want to have sex", Stuff, September 17, 2017
Sex is like the cherry on the top of a sundae, but you need to make the sundae first, if you get my drift.
ZANE
Dear G. Spot
I never understood why anyone would have sex on the floor. Until I was with you and I realized: you don't realize you're on the floor.
DAVID LEVITHAN
The Lover's Dictionary
Either sex alone is half itself.
ALFRED TENNYSON
The Princess
By separating the function of adaptation from the function of maintaining the integrity of individual genes, sex allows much greater diversity while still keeping genes whole. Sex is not only fun, it is good engineering practice.
SETH LLOYD
Programming the Universe
The only surefire way to spot a floundering couple is to count the number times per week they have sex. Yes, OK, this is all very male gaze and whatever. But really think back over your own relationship history. Didn't the breakups, mostly, coincide with a prolonged dry spell? Remember all those times you've counselled friends, whose love affairs have entered a tailspin? Isn't hearing them blub "we barely even have sex anymore" so commonplace it's basically a trope? Even if you're happily hooked-up, don't you find the frequency of petty bickering is inversely proportional to the quantity of humping?
ANDY HILL
"Your relationship is failing because you don't put out enough", Metro, September 9, 2017
Sex and hypocrisy. They go together like coffee and cream.

EDWARD ALBEE
Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?
Lovemaking seems all too absurd when described.
DAN SIMMONS
The Rise of Endymion
I don't write about sex because it's not really my subject. I love it when other people write about it, but it's not my subject, and I don't want anyone I've had sex with to write about it. Plus, you're in front of an audience, and they picture wherever you're writing about. I'm 52; no one in the audience wants to picture that.
DAVID SEDARIS
interview, Bohemian, June 2009
Baby, in a world without pity,
Do you think what I'm askin's too much?
I just want to feel you in my arms,
Share a little of that Human Touch.
BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN

A study found that couples in their sixties still having regular sex looked between five and seven years younger than those no longer having sex.
TRACEY COX
"8 health benefits of great sex", Net Doctor, September 4, 2017
Vacation sex. So much better than home sex. Yeah. Because ... there's no pressure on the guy. Even if he doesn't perform that well, she's still on vacation.
RAY ROMANO

Sex is an emotion in motion.
