yeah, i have to agree here. i dont think "love" is purely biological - if it was relationships wouldn't last more than 9 1/2 weeksbellybelle wrote:SD5 wrote:but the characteristic dissolution of self in a unity of two, however fleeting, also needs to be appreciated for it's transcendence of time,
for it's power to immortalize and universalize an individual's experience.
Know this?
that was a very lovely sentiment.
love

Accidental double but gives me chance to contemplate out loud:
are sex and romantic love inextricably entwined?
can't a frigid dame and an impotent bloke fall in love with each other, without it being a form of mutual frustration?

Aroma does become important
but methinks this sexual, not essentially love.
theyre called Pheromones....strictly hormonal. Much like the emotional breakdowns u get when youre menstrual.
So you can write it off as just chemical and emotional right?
Suspect answer is No, cos you're that ultimate unfathomable: a woman.
However,
perhaps another subject,
I can never quite understand what women see in men.
Even when I can appreciate that a man is aesthetically attractive
I can't imagine the pleasure a woman presumably feels at being penetrated (dominated) by him...
Sometimes I think that it's just exploiting male libido to enjoy being lazily the centre of attention.
If so, it's a misread of male priapism in which the centre of attention remains self.
Rhetorical, don't want an explanation.
Again; sex ain't love, though lovers can share it.

I mean, are we supposed to dismiss sex entirely? And the minute someone has a sexual thought, the possibility of it actually being Love goes out the window. Are we that sexually repressed as a culture/people that sex will always be bad, false, trite, base, even in the most decent unions, i.e. when two people love each other.....?
maybe i can translate the original statement into uncomplicated vernacular, which would make it this...
"Love is the best thing to smell on the person you're having sex with."
Crass and rude, to the point.
As for sex free...I dated a gent a few years back for 2 years and we never slept together for it. I felt I loved him, but being honest with myself, I found I would not be able to connect with him the way I should to have the love thing. That doesn't mean we failed because everything was strictly hormonal? Everything wasn't. But why should I deny the importance of sex to a happy love life? Yes there are jail couples and people separated by distance who love and don't touch....but I don't think they'd choose to abstain if put in the same place, especially if they love each other.
Lets just suppose not all people are having sex all willy nilly. Lets suppose that there are some people who are a bit more calculated and thoughtful in their approach--who view sex as not just a recreational activity, but as an opportunity to bond with a person and say things they are no longer able to articulate, through touch. Is it necessary to deny them the physical and spiritual benefits of coitus because we think of sex as base? Does our opinion of what sex has become detract from what it can mean between those who enjoy expressing their love this way?
Love making is a beautiful thing. Just because the movements are the same as fucking, it doesn't make it the same thing.
