Sex- Believe it or not this is serious.

[Jason Tandro]

This is the great Sex debate, and how that most wonderful of acts affects various other debates.

Is sex only for reproduction or is the pleasure equally important?

Even if pleasure is important does reproduction still not remain the primary reason?

If this is the case, then does the disprove the believe that homosexuality/asexuality is natural?

Is premarital sex okay? Is teenage sex okay? Is pedophilia okay as a few people seem to believe?

What are your thoughts?

yes and yes. sex is for reproduction and for social communication. reproduction is our main purpose, that's why a being as evolved as humans are needs some sort of reward to not stop reproducing.

homosexuality is natural (MUCH more than asexuality) in a way we cannot understand yet. animals have the same problem. could be genetical, sometimes psychologically. both could be some sort of triage.

yes, yes, no. pedophilia fails in terms of reproduction, that's why it's not "sex". premarital sex is vital for a long-term relationship!
teenage sex is ok as long as the teenagers are well-educated and well-mannered. it depends on every individual when his own point in time comes for having sex. this can mean 13 or 18. it's all up to the parents and social environment here

The natural purpose for sex is reproduction, but sex for pleasure is very important in maintaining a strong relationship for we humans.

I wouldn't say its natural, but I also wouldn't say that it matters. Whether or not homosexuality, etc. is acceptable or natural really depends on one's own morality.

Premarital sex is another thing that reflects upon one's morality. If you practice the belief that sex is intended for marriage then there's your answer. And of course it's the same with teenage sex. But with teenage sex, responsibility is often a much bigger factor. And pedophilia is just wrong. Taking sexual advantages of underdeveloped people goes beyond religious moralities, and into the base sense within us all of what is acceptable and what isn't.
