Sex Without Love

Have you ever wondered if it was natural for human beings to remain sexually monogamous when most other mammals in the animal kingdom constantly practice polygamy. So, why are human beings in general expected to practice monogamy?

There are generally two camps, one that believes in monogamy and the other that does not! Christianity for one preaches monogamy, and that is sometimes the main reason some people practice it. But having said that, I believe that sex without love is merely mating with genitals, but sex with loving intimacy is mating with the soul. As human beings, our sex drives are controlled by more than just hormonal cycling and the phases of the moon. The human sexual response is a very complex, multi-factorial phenomenon that we still don't fully understand.

Sex without love is ok if you're into being in a meaningless affair, also if you like cheap flings and emotionally detached self belittling moments of absolute debauchery. I know of people so addicted to sex that they do so much they don’t enjoy it on its own anymore. They need help from all kinds of chemicals, drugs that numb them into blind submission in order to "enjoy" having sex. I personally would never ever want to be trapped in this kind of a rut.

Sex in a loving relationship is much more fulfilling and satisfying. It is something that can be cherished rather than that low point in life when you indulged in a useless desire of the flesh. Some may call love out dated and out of style but, people in love are way more happy and content. I know I always am.
