Here's an interesting idea:

It's been suggested that once you start having sex, you don't want to stop. That implies sex is really, really, really good for the body and mind.

Let's consider the other extreme -- is sex sufficiently good that if you were getting as much of it as you wanted (when you wanted, how you wanted, etc.) would you mind going without anything else in life (money, food, clothing, etc.) In short, if you were getting it, would all your other problems in life be tolerable?

I'm just curious -- it's been postulated that sex is not only good for keeping people happy, it's perhaps the only thing we need to keep emotionally healthy.

Everything you say is true. I have sex all the time. I'd just like someone in the room with me for a change.

The human animal is fundimentally driven to have sex and reproduce. There would probably be some chemical insentive released after sex that would make other problems seem less, just to make us want to fuck again.

If I wasn't so lazy I'd cite a source.

well having sex releases endorphines which makes you happier and it's the best form of exercise for your body....so you can't lose

In that same thread I compared sex to cannabis. Funnily enough, sex can also substitute for "weed" in the old adage: "Weed will get you through times of no money better than money will get you through times of no weed".

Sex with a regular loving partner is optimum, but getting a fix in any way possible is the reason some women will "sleep around".

I don't know. I think it depends on your perspective. For instance, my daughter seems to find an empty 20 oz bottle to be a constand cureall.

She's a strange kid....

True, everything you try once and want to do all the time is really really good for the body and mind. What comes to mind is the health benefits ot heroine and crack cocaine; they are good for you body AND mind!
