quotations about sex

Everyone is having sex until they fall in love. When you fall in love, then it's making love.
GILBERT ARENAS
Esquire, April 2010
Every virtuous woman desires a husband to whom she can look for guidance and protection through this world. God has placed this desire in woman's nature. It should be respected by the stronger sex. Any man who takes advantage of this, and humbles a daughter of Eve to rob her of her virtue, and cast her off dishonored and defiled, is her destroyer, and is responsible to God for the deed.

Sex has to do with imagination, so the sky is the limit. If you're not doing bodily harm, why shouldn't you do what turns you on?
JACK LALANNE
interview, Playboy, 1984
The rush of sexual attraction can act like a drug and blur our capacity for clear thinking. This can lead us to distance ourselves from our friends or even abandon our life plan for someone who couldn't otherwise be relied on to water our plants and feed our cat.

CHARLES BUKOWSKI
Notes of a Dirty Old Man
Sometimes sex is beautiful. More often, it is fun; funny; dangerous; dull; lethal; exciting enough to wilt crabgrass, and, for far too many practitioners, a chore quite comparable to taking out the garbage.

Good sex is an all-day affair. You can't treat your wife like a servant and expect her to be eager to sleep with you at night. Your wife's sexual responsiveness will be determined by how willingly you help out with the dishes, the kids' homework, or that leaky faucet that drips throughout the night.

People take sex far too seriously.
CHRISTINA AGUILERA
Newsweek, July 31, 2006
Sex is not always a choice
lovingly made and enjoyed like
plump well-handled self-chosen fruit
teeth sinking into soft flesh in a dribble of pleasure.
Nevertheless
it abounds.
Some because it is the
truth of their being.
Some to deny, negate, sate
deep yearning, wordless, timeless.
