quotations about sex
Food has it over sex for variety. Hedonistically, gustatory possibilities are much broader than copulatory ones.
JOSEPH EPSTEIN
Familiar Territory
We demand that sex speak the truth ... and we demand that it tell us our truth, or rather, the deeply buried truth of that truth about ourselves which we think we possess in our immediate consciousness.

"People reveal the one thing they don't like about having sex", The HealthSite, September 18, 2017
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.

Sex is an emotion in motion.
MAE WEST

"Why Women Are Losing Interest In Sex After A Year", Forbes, September 16, 2017
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.

If you don't encourage healthy sexual expression in public, you get unhealthy sexual expression in private. If you attempt to suppress sex in books, magazines, movies and even everyday conversation, you aren't helping to make sex more private, just more hidden. You're keeping sex in the dark. What we've tried to do is turn on the lights.
HUGH HEFNER
Playboy, January 1974
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.
