Part of my reaction to the whole sex vs. religion thing is from a boyfriend that I had a couple of years ago who came right out and said that he couldn't understand why a smart, good looking girl like me would waste my time with church. Like church is only for dull, stupid, and ugly people. Oh, and old people. This from a man who went out of his way to show off an attitude that embraced diversity and tolerance. Except, I guess, for traditional religion. What it came down to, I think, was that he didn't want to be INCONVENIENCED by having me kick his lazy ass out of bed on Sunday morning.
Yeah, I guess part of genuinegirly's post went a little over my head. And I agree, a virgin's opinion about sex is about as worthless as a deaf piano tuner. I'd been masturbating for at least a year before my first sexual intercourse (on my fifteenth birthday--makes it easy to remember) so I was expecting orgasms from sex. It was disappointingly rare in the first months of being "sexually active," and I get off pretty easily. But even my self induced orgasms were better than any cake I've ever had. On the other hand, over the last fifteen years I've had more than a few downright disappointing sexual encounters. Maybe better than cake, but probably not as good as a piece of warm rhubarb pie with farm fresh whipped cream on it.
