Some girls say "In Love" when they really mean "In Heat" Some guys will say anything to get in her pants. Girls say Guys cant seperate Love and Sex Guys say Girls cant seperate Love and Sex. Who is right?, or is it even. Is this thread just a veiled attempt to start yet another battle of the sexes thread whilst I sit back with my bowl of popcorn to giggle at the responses
I'll bite. Men are not monogamous by nature . Prolly women aren't either, but men seem to be more wandering, statistically. Anyhow, a man is fully capable of having sex with someone they don't love - it's why they pay hookers or rent boys. Just a few women seem to be into purchasing sex for sex sake. So, it looks like men are more adept at separating sex from love. Anyone disagree with that? :toetap05:
i agree with shale i think men r the ones that can separate love and sex more but i think theres occasions were they might not be able to distingush it (i.e wen fuck buddys develop feelings for each other) but there is an occasional women who can distingush between the both but i personally think that its rare in a women so sry but i think the guys take it on this one
I often used to get it mixed up. For me, sex creates feelings of gratitude and trust, which lay the foundation for love. If it happens a few times, and we spend time and get along really well outside the bedroom, too...I'll probably fall for her. However...I have a natural tendency to want to develop intimate, loving sexual relationships with as many women as possible. I'm extremely poly. If there's no emotional connection, it's hard for me to get interested in just sex. But my heart is just a slut. I can and do control it, though, because that sort of behavior tends to really hurt the other people in my life...and I fell so hard for my wife that I promised to be monogamous. It's a sacrifice, but she is and our relationship is definitely worth it.
I think it's as much an age thing as a men-women thing. I'm not "confused" between love and sex. The older I get, the less I'm concerned about "love". I do have to at least like someone before jumping into their bed, but I'll have sex with anyone I feel like, whether there's "love" involved or not.
i think it's the same. i know just as many girls who wanted a fling and the guy became too clingy as guys.
Yeah...Male/Female generalizations don't work very often. Even, "Who has the larger southern proboscis?" wouldn't have an answer that applied to everyone.
Women I think are more likely to assume the two are the same and confuse them, and men to separate them. I think this may be less common nowadays as more women are prepared to accept casual encounters and 'fuck buddies' and more open about their sexual needs. Saunas with private rooms or swingers clubs will have a few women who visit who are looking for sex as much as many men, as will bars and clubs. One such sauna I used to visit had a few women who were known for it, one of whom has written two books about her encounters and has a blog. Another used to appear and would ensure at an appropriate time that if there was a man who she might be interested in, her towel would be removed so that the man could have a good view of her sizable tits and her pussy. Invitations to put oil on her back could follow, and sometimes these would lead to the man and her disappearing to a back room for sex. There were no strings and for her no confusion between sex and love, as with the blogger.
What is "love" anyway, when it comes to the man-woman relationship (in most cases). Shekaspeare told us the tale of assumedly "great love" , but would Romeo feel the same if Juliet was 90 years old? (If so, we would probably call him a pervert). So what is there , in modern sense of the word, but a sexual attraction that is veiled under the so convenient "I am in love with this woman/man" claim (also subtly implying, in some instances and cultures, how "bad" sex is, ergo "this is about love, not about sex")? The truth is that there are wide variety of needs and feelings people have for each other and we seldom are willing to face it for what it is (we prefer to create wishful fantasy world, instead, live in it and demand the same from the others, and then we wonder why so many relationships go sour...) yawn... I wish to have lived in Greece, 400 BC,as a philosopher in a truly Civilized Society ,where someone like Diogenes could dare to tell someone like Alexander "Stand out of my sunlight" and be replied with "If I were not Alexander, then I should wish to be Diogenes." (can you imagine such a dialog taking place in our own, extra-barbaric-Vandal times? ) I would have a loving, caring wife , a mother of my children, to share my life permanently as a family, some occasional Muses , when certain kind inspiration was needed for some kind of philosophical or creative task and momentous courtesans to have fun with when invited to party in the houses of friends and fellow noble-men... I am so 2400 years late :cheers2:
