We don't need it anymore; thanks to scientific advances, we can now reproduce without such animalistic thrashing.
And it causes so much trouble. Courtship is a harrowing experience, filled with buffoonery and emotions. Amazing what people will do to initiate the mating ritual: even flowers and "romantic" evenings.
One phrase I never want to hear again: vive la différence.
Nasty stuff, sex. Let's relegate it to the trash heap of history.

(15,262 posts)The Ancient Erotic Art
Of
The Larco Museum
http://www.delange.org/Larco_Museum_Lima_Peru_Erotic/Larco_Museum_Lima_Peru_Erotic.htm
The art displayed here clearly shows the wide variety of sexual practices in Peru, during the 2nd century AD.
The Erotic Gallery of the Larco Museum with the worlds biggest collection of art displaying this fascinating ancient sexual theme, has turned this tourist place into a must see for travelers to South America & Peru.
We can say; "We've never seen anything like this Erotic Gallery."
The Erotic Gallery features two rooms of pre-Columbian art that explicitly shows the many aspects of sexual life of the indigenous cultures that were in Peru.
The Erotic Gallery is so graphic that the museum guards don't allow visitors to enter under the age of 18. ....................

(73,536 posts)I think that we can all agree that sex is evil. Thus, sinful.
Hence, as long as it is restricted to married couples, exclusively for procreation, it may be okay. After all, God made such an evil thing because He loveth us so much. Missionary position, with no foreplay nor talking. (No moans and groans, either.)
Orgasms are only holy when they create sacred organisms. We read that in the Old Testicle's Book of Genocide 9: 11-12.
We do need laws, though.

(546 posts)In the era of the vibrator and insemination, 'sex' is becoming hard to define, hard to control.
Let's make reproduction illegal.
First, it will reduce the number of people on welfare and lower unemployment. Wages would go up due to a scarcity of labor, taxes for education and health care will go down. Rents and property will be cheaper. Carbon emissions will be reduced.
The benefits of this policy will become apparent almost immediately and within a few decades there will be a transformation of America to a land of opportunity and plenty for everyone who is left.
When we run short of Americans, we can always import new ones, just like our founding fathers did.

(12,958 posts)Some of these people are living on a planet where they do not know, or understand, or WANT to understand, how sex and sexuality work.
They wish to impose these perplexed, dare I say hateful, views of heterosexual relationships and men on the rest of us. They become angry when we don't share their scoffing interpretation of same. It's kind of sad watching them tie themselves in knots over something so basic.

(6,199 posts)"The sex instinct will be eradicated. Procreation will be an annual formality like the renewal of a ration card. We shall abolish the orgasm. Our neurologists are at work upon it now. There will be no loyalty, except loyalty towards the Party. There will be no love, except the love of Big Brother. There will be no laughter, except the laugh of triumph over a defeated enemy. There will be no art, no literature, no science. When we are omnipotent we shall have no more need of science. There will be no distinction between beauty and ugliness. There will be no curiosity, no enjoyment of the process of life. All competing pleasures will be destroyed.

(13,685 posts)I was riding in a car with a woman. She was driving. Suddenly she reached over and put her hand between my legs, looked at me, smiled then asked if it was ok.
Should I have had her arrested for assault?

(546 posts)One a violation of Sexcrime Ordinance #131: male fantasy projection.
It is illegal to for a male to even dream that a woman might be sexually aggressive and enjoying it. She must have been drunk, which is your fault, by the way.
A second violation: if you were not horrified and objectified that your dream girl was leading you to ruination, that is a violation as well: Sexcrime Ordinance #222: Using the uncontrollable sexual urges of women as a cover for your own salacious desires.
Men Beware: It is a lot easier to get tangled up in Sexcrime than it is to find a girlfriend.

(13,685 posts)I am so dirty. Just plain filth. Where can I possibly go to turn myself in so I can do penance? The words on DU just are not enough anymore. In fact, I think these women complaining about women and their bodies is what made me dream of women and their bodies. Ooops, there I go, blaming women again. See, it's just a vicious circle.
I need to be spanked. Hard. I need to be imprisoned under a strict mysterious mistress who would help me cleanse my mind of these beautiful butts. Like I say, DU just isn't doing it for me.
Maybe a big overdose of real life beautiful butts would help?!?!?!

(9,385 posts)your idea is probably a good one.
I read that Valentine's Day is just crass materialism to boycott, and it's fine to shove uncalled for asses in our faces, so why not just chuck the whole thing after all? I mean if people no longer want to make the effort to relate to each other, then it's nothing but phony to hold on to only the physical aspect of it.
People are really only in love with themselves today anyway, a mirror should suffice even better than another human.
