quotations about sex
The only sea I saw
Was the seesaw sea
With you riding on it.
Lie down, lie easy.
Let me shipwreck in your thighs.

My springs is getting rusty, sleeping single like I do.

Sex is an emotion in motion.
MAE WEST
attributed, The Concise Columbia Dictionary of Quotations
I think it's a major epidemic in women, faking orgasms. So many women in this world feel like they are put on this planet to please men, that they have to fake, and they never worry about their own pleasure.

When sex is readily available, it becomes far less of an issue. The anxiety of deprivation is gone, the dread of making excuses is gone; the guilt of withholding is gone. Talk about a great way to improve your relationship without talking!

How to Improve Your Marriage Without Talking About It
Although we may get bashful about discussing it at times, sex is a vital part of life. After all, our being here is a result of the deed being done at one time or another.

"Scientists Say People Who Have A Lot Of Sex Are More Likely To Have An Excellent Memory", Little Things, September 18, 2017
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?

Sex isn't everything. It's not even the most important thing. But when sex goes off the rails, there is probably a lot more wrong in the relationship than right.

I respect you ... and your views. I think of you as an equal. I respect your brains, and all those big words you like to use. But I also want to rip your clothes off and have sex with you until you scream and cry and see God.

Last time I had sex I was so good I got a standing ovation. Well, actually, I just got the clap.

Notes of a Dirty Old Man
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
"Human Touch"
Part of the sexual revolution is bringing rationality to sexuality -- because when you don't embrace sexuality in a normal way, you get the twisted kinds, and the kinds that destroy lives.
HUGH HEFNER
interview, NPR, September 6, 2003
According to the greater or lesser violence of your sensual passion, you have perhaps discerned some of those twenty-two pleasures which in other times created in Greece twenty-two kinds of courtesans, devoted especially to these delicate branches of the same art.
HONORÉ DE BALZAC
Physiology of Marriage
Alas, alas, that ever love was sin!
I ever followed natural inclination
Under the power of my constellation
And was unable to deny, in truth,
My chamber of Venus to a likely youth.
