True. But that applies to many other things as well, and they don't get given the same aura that sex does.
-------------------- Yes, you're despicable, and... and picable... and... and you're definitely, definitely despicable. How a person can get so despicable in one lifetime is beyond me. It isn't as though I haven't met a lot of people. Goodness knows it isn't that. It isn't just that... it isn't... it's... it's despicable.

We had the kitten killing public service announcement pics posted on the ship during WestPac. Eight months in the Persian Gulf with only one liberty port per month. Needless to say the crew of the good ship Fitzgerald killed many kittens.

Money talks. You would not believe the amazing women I see hooked up with the ugliest (but wealthy) guys. I guess they convince themselves they're with them out of love... something.
That whole "love is blind" thing is total bullshit- there's no love without physical attraction- thus sex, like it or not, plays a huge role in who we choose as a partner.
So "waiting till marriage" really is quaint: a big part of the reason you're with them in the first place is based on the desire to mate and who will be a suitable partner.

You're seeing sex as a reason for marriage. If you see marriage as a reason for sex, everything takes on a completely different tone.

Sex is not a reason for anything except procreation. Procreation is not a reason for anything except survival of the species, and thus for sex. How else you see it really doesn't matter.

...so basically, "I'm right, and if you disagree, your opinion isn't even worthy of consideration?" Like so many things, sex and procreation have what significance we give them.

Both those choices are crap. I see love as the reason for marriage. Sex is natural behavior between two mates that accept and desire eachother, whatever the phase of the relationship. That's why I like "Cocoon". When I'm 75, I'll be doing all the pumps and pills n' shit for me lady, also surphing mature porn when she's out of town.
I reckon I would want to have a relationship with a woman for at least two years before marrying her, having met all the relatives and tried all the holidays, gone on a few trips together. It goes without saying that it must say click between us from the start.
If I were to go two or three years with this woman without as much as a french kiss (which is foreplay at the very least), just hugs and cheek kisses, what am I going to be doing for those years, be her chaperon?
The girls I've been with haven't had sex just to please me, or just to have some fun, it's about confirmation and appreciation (wanting it and giving it at the same time), very vital stough to any relationship.

Yes, but significance is not a reason. I didn't say your opinion was less worthy of consideration than mine, just that it's rather foolish to pretend that sex, or any other biological drive, is or should be a reason for anything except its natural evolutionary purpose.

Now that's not true. Humans did not invent the "intercourse sans fertilization"-concept. Many types of animals (monkeys, dolphins, cats) make love just for gratification or as a social gesture to someone in the flock/pack. Even they know the value in making someone feel good now and then.

Her friend. That's the important part, regardless of the level of physical affection.
I didn't say your opinion was less worthy of consideration than mine, just that it's rather foolish to pretend that sex, or any other biological drive, is or should be a reason for anything except its natural evolutionary purpose.
And if I disagree with your basic premise, what then of my opinion?
