Why Do People Have Sex?

Researchers at the University of Texas spent five years and their own money to ponder the reasons why people have sex.

After such an exhaustive study I’m sure the researchers were able to come up with complex and enlightening reasons why we have sex.

Are you wondering what were the top reasons why folks make love? I’m not a brain surgeon, rocket scientist or a Don Juan, but here are my guesses:

Making romance is a way to combat the existential angst that afflicts postmodern man. It’s a philosophical statement that life is more than accumulating status symbols and climbing the career ladder.

Indulging in carnal delights is a way to fight the dehumanizing aspects of our high-tech society. It’s a declaration that we are not robots or faceless cubicle dwellers, but human beings.
 
It’s a search for transcendence; by having intercourse with another person we escape the physical and enter the spiritual and metaphysical realms.

OK, I’m full of it, I know that’s not what compels human beings to make whoopie.
 
From Reuters:

“After exhaustively compiling a list of the 237 reasons why people have sex, researchers found that young men and women get intimate for mostly the same motivations. It’s more about lust in the body than a love connection in the heart.
 
College-aged men and women agree on their top reasons for having sex — they were attracted to the person, they wanted to experience physical pleasure and “it feels good,” according to a peer-reviewed study in the August edition of Archives of Sexual Behavior. Twenty of the top 25 reasons given for having sex were the same for men and women.”
 
In other words, to quote the immortal lyrics of the “2 Live Crew”, a human being makes love because, “Me So Horny.”
 
It’s interesting to note that women do “the nasty” for the same reason guys do — because it feels good.
 
So when your new girlfriend says she’s ready to have sex because she wants to make an emotional connection with you, smile. We know she just wants to get her freak on, like the guys.
 
Dear Lord, now I can’t get that stupid song by the “2 Live Crew” out of my mind. Me So Horny…
