Yeah, it's relevant to threads about sex and how that affects relationships.

I don't post on the Aviation forum because I've never flown a plane. Sure, I've flown ON a plane, but piloting is a completely different thing.

No I wouldn't marry anyone I didn't have crazy electricity/sparks with.

Ok, good for you. This thread is about sexual attraction/lust which generally occurs prior to the actual act of sex, so I have an opinion.

No, I have not, which I stated in my first reply on the first page of this thread. Several others who have replied in this thread have never been married either, so what's your point?

It speaks to the integrity and reliability of the replies.

If you have ZERO experience with that topic, then your posts are all speculation.

So what? I'm not attempting to speak for others in this thread. I'm talking about what kind of attraction I would personally want to have with someone. Just worry about your own posts! Geez.

We know ... Wentworth Miller.

What you're taking about has nothing to do with the thread. But sure, free country and all that.

Hmm. I suspect there is a bit of a flaw in the original premise here. Yes, the internet is "peppered" with all kinds of things. However, that certainly doesn't make those things representative of the whole, representative of a lot, or representative of even a highly significant percentage.


So sure, you can find examples of married persons who married for all kinds of reasons, and ignoring or minimizing the importance of all kinds of potential aspects to the relationship. However, at the end of the day, the number of married couples where there was not any kind of "attraction" is going to be a fraction of the whole.


The internet tends to provide a sounding board for the vocal minority in just about everything you can think of.


I have also struggled some with the chosen wording of "primal attraction." In a marriage, attraction to your spouse is far deeper than some kind of physical, instinctive or purely hormone fueled attraction.
