Each person can define overrated on their own. It just sounded to me, with what you said about the media, it sounded like you were agreeing with my position.
If you were talking specifically about the media buzz, yes. "Overrated" obviously means different things to different people. I just don't think it helps a discussion to use obtuse references. Not trying to split hairs here, or argue. But I see this as two totally different perspectives/issues.
I'd say no, it's not overrated, at least not for me. I'm a very sexual person and a healthy sex life is way up on my list of priorities and needs that have to be filled on a regular basis.
Drinking a half gallon of gatorade, then driving across the city in a school bus, where you can't relieve yourself...and then finally getting off to pee 90 minutes later...is 100x a better feeling. You don't have a weiner...but trust me on this.
Yeeeeeah I’m still gonna go with sex.
As a woman (YES, a woman without a weiner thanks very much paganmama! ) who can’t pee behind any old tree or on a wall like men can, it is MUCH more relieving for us when we make it there, but I’d still choose sex.
But when you are with someone you have great chemistry with, I think it is one of the best ways to connect with another person...and have a great time
I believe this statement is overrated. I have a ton of friends...and I believe I have a good connection with all of them, and have good times...and I never have nor ever will have sex with them.
Communication breeds connection...not genital mucous.
The media might over sell sex but our sex life should be based on our own rating system. Apparently anyone who is Asexual or non-sexual would overrate any sex. Any activity or experience we have no desire to participate is over rated.
Speaking for the guys, a mentally and physically healthy male is programmed by nature to want sex. If I had almost no sex drive or I found it not pleasurable I would want to know the reason.
Do we live in an oversexed society? Sure, I'll go along with that. But I still wouldn't call it overrated. It sells for a reason.
Now sports, video games, religion, politicians, most vacations, and shopping malls are overrated.
There is little more pathetic than a grown man investing too much of his emotional energy, precious time, and hard earned salary following some billionaire athlete's stats who couldn't care less about him, or spending endless hours playing childish video games. But if that's what makes them happy or keeps them from perching themselves atop some office building with a high powered rifle then more power to them.
Ah, you mean that situation is ridiculous because the man is not spending his money on a woman, or spending his time dealing with a woman's problems and issues and drama? Maybe the man has found the meaning of life; make yourself happy, not someone else at your expense.
Now that you mention it. I do recall my father. Playing a lot of video games. Let me see.
College educated(had to start his work life at the age of 13 so he went to night class and worked at the same time most of his life). He's taking another master's now.
Owns his own house. All paid for. Didn't mess around with party girls. Didn't catch any stds. He's also the greatest father one can have, a perfect husband, a terrific son and broher. He's a mentor to younger guys, helps out at the local church. Makes donations and instilled in me great morals.
So hm, how are you going to compare a MAN with real accomplishments to what, a teenager? Because my father likes to play video games? He also plays chess online. He must be immature or something .
"Speaking for the guys, a mentally and physically healthy male is programmed by nature to want sex. If I had almost no sex drive or I found it not pleasurable I would want to know the reason."
The great thing about being human is that we can control our urges. Do I want sex? Yes. Do I want to catch a std/be accused of false rape/make the woman pregnant/have her deceive me into parenthood?
Hell no. Thus I stay away from sex.
And no, I am not paranoid nor are the women around me of low quality. I simply have eyes to see, ears to hear, and a great control over my sex drive.
As a woman (YES, a woman without a weiner thanks very much paganmama! ) who can’t pee behind any old tree or on a wall like men can, it is MUCH more relieving for us when we make it there, but I’d still choose sex.
I wish I could pee standing up
Men don't know how lucky they are.
